You'd think that the I/C would be Cuningham, Williamson, McKay and Graham (Emerg: Armfield, Boekhorst & Smedts?).
I hope so!

Brisbane might be an easier gig for HMc with no real standout star defenders....I want to see him play...

3rd time lucky ? they couldn't do it again surely...
even if his form doesn't warrant it they've got to throw him and see how he goes. Road Trip with the boys will be a great experience for him.

Sumner has had more than enough chances.

Then again, funnier things have happened, but I wouldn't be playing him until he got 20+ possessions in the VFL. I don't know that he has ever done that.
With only a few rounds to go, the probability of the MC selecting a few speculative selections is on the cards, especially with the injury problems we have. Dennis will have at least 1 farewell game, depending on how he plays. Jaksch might get a game to see if we can interest some team in him at trade time.

I don't think fitness has much to do with it. To quote Captain Blood, "He keeps getting where the ball ain't!"

I may yet be proven wrong but guys like Graham, Smedts, Boekhorst, Sumner etc don't seem like they will be part of the future. Harry, Willo, Cunners and Macreadie are most certainly apart of bigger and better things.

I hope Smedts gets another crack. Reckon this guy can really play....
