Without going anywhere near tanking or otherwise for a MSD selection, I just wonder how clever we were with our 3 PSSD selections in Feb. Hindsight can make any judge a genius but given we knew DMc was unavailable for most of the season, NM was an uncertain starter and we hardly have a forest of tall timber i was surprised we went one tall and 2 inside ish mids.
The hindsight really comes from what we have seen in 3 VFL games, so only a quick glance in the rear view mirror but many would go Long ahead of both selected mids ( younger as well ) . Not sure there is a huge differnece between the 2 guys we selected who look good honest VFL players unlikely to make much of difference at AFL level. For these reason i'd have gone 2 tall and one mid, i liked what i saw of Sof in the Brisbane game and Eyre was looking good over the summer albeit a nagging doubt about soft tissue concerns.
