I don't know the fine details, can only comment one what you see in the results.

Did TOS play their strongest 22 vs West Croydon?

O'Hara, Martin, Iacopi, Fatchen all play B grade while Siciliano, Burne, Schaper play A grade?

Just interesting, especially when you see O'Hara kick 7 goals and Martin played 14x A grade games during the season :shock:

Not saying anything wrong with it, well within the rules just interesting. Feel a bit for your A grade losing by 100pts if they didn't have the best 22 available is all

You can't look at results on Sporting Pulse or on paper and expect to know exactly what their selection policy was.

Maybe some of those players were picked specifically for a match-up. Maybe some of the dropped players haven't been training or have shown poor attitude. Maybe some had to work. Maybe some had a twinged hammy.

Funny you say that. I was with someone the other day who used to be tied up with Trinity and we checked out their scores. When they were going through the B grade team they were very surprised by some of the players who were playing B's and wondering why consistent A grade players from the past were not playing finals in the A's. 2 of them you mentioned as well

How do you qualify for B grade finals if you have played 14 A grade games during the season?

Martin has played the last 5 games in B grade due to a change in employment making him unavailable for A grade. It was either play B grade or not at all..

Iacopi had played 1 C grade game in rd 18 sonce a broken arm in rd 6, missed first final through work, so 1 C grade game in 12 weeks isnt great preparation for an A grade elimination final..

Fatchen played C grade until about 6 weeks ago and hasnt trained all year.

O'Hara trains 3 times a week for cricket and is only playing B grade because his good mate is the coach. Hasnt trained all year and tore his groin 5 minutes into his only A grade game in round 2 this year, one that he didnt want to play anyway..

Anything else while im here? Im wasting my lunch break on this and i enjoy food

No sleep shall be lost here on the issue - we will control what is within our control, prepare ourselves for Saturday the best we can and focus on our game plan and structures.. Who plays on the opposition is irrelevant in my eyes, we have a job to do. Simple as that.

Now I also like food so I'm off for 2nd lunch.

Focus on one contest at a time. Hit the body hard but fair. Use your team mates. Cliche #4. Cliche #5

Just implement morell's meadow mate and you'll be fine.
