Really disappointed for Taberner, felt he had established himself, and was one of the bright lights for the season.
Top ten for marks, marks inside fifty and contested marks, according to guys on purple reign podcast. Can’t think of many other players we would have in top ten of anything.
Really unfortunate that he has gone down at the same time as Darcy. I was hoping to see a combination of Darcy in the ruck with Lobb, Taberner and Hogan forward.
I suppose Cox gets a reprieve and McCarthy gets another run despite neither’s form really warranting selection.
