Understand the reasoning behind team stability, but would be interested to hear views on slightly widening the regular selection pool out to 26–28 players.
Preparing fringe players for late-season/finals call-ups when injuries hit. Managing player loads and resting key players as needed. Trade value at season's end - Serong and Hustwaite come to mind
Not asking for wholesale change, just a wider contribution. Thoughts?
Spot on Brad, looks good. Agree with Matt's comment below. Ash referred to Aidan Schubert in the review of the Essendon game, and I managed to find that he'd kicked 4 goals in a practice game. However, it is seemingly impossible to find any information on Box Hill and our AFL listed players who weren't selected for the senior team. It's really disappointing and looks like we'll be in the dark until the VFL season commences and we can then follow on the live stream.
I agree that there will be no change, but it's pretty hard to know who might come in, when there is pretty much no info from either Hawthorn or Box Hill about who did what in any of Box Hill's practice matches!

I agree Paul - I posed this question for the HI recording tonight. On-going challenge to balance development/opportunity with need to win games.
