This is exactly what it feels like to me. Others play after missing as there's more trust
in them overall.
Todd is clearly being asked to prove something and doesn't feel he needs to.
Shame, and disappointing all round its come to that, but if Farke feels its best for the group, and if the group largely agree then its for the best.
He's taken the hardline before and its not hurt the team overall.
