The inconsistency of message when selecting the team really gets me. When discussing Cam McCarthy possibly being selected for this weeks game Ross said,
“We threw (selecting McCarthy) up at match committee but at the end of the day we need to keep integrity of selection and performance,” Lyon said.
Fair comment on face value. Yet it is alright to select S. Hill, Ballantyne and Sandilands and insert them straight into the team without any form or in some cases no match fitness at all, or ignoring Banfield after a number of very good WAFL games (thankfully it was noticed this week)
There does not appear to be any integrity of selection and performance, just a case of playing favourites....again. If it is confusing for us supporters, just imagine how it must be for the players themselves.
