What happens this week if he's just regular bad, does he keep getting a game?
Kids need to be shown that there's a certain standard that they must achieve.

I scratch my head. Marchbank hasn't played for ages and was down on form badly, yet he is in with no time in the VFL.
Lochie O'Brien was dropped and didn't play last week either, so he couldn't impress. Yet, he comes in for Dow.
Kreuzer: I just hope he is 100%, as I hate playing guys not 100%.

Levi had to be dropped, but the bye hurts his chances. It will mean he misses at least 2 weeks.
Paddy Dow: fair enough, he has to be 'managed' some time.
Mullett wasn't as ordinary as he can be last week, but hopefully Daisy can play as well as he had before his suspension.

I would have played either McKay or Kerr, with McKay more likely.

Maybe they Match Committee can be geniuses. I just can't see it.

No change for them. I wonder who Robbo will play on this year? He used to play on Gibbs and usually beat him. Hopefully we can squash him.
Stefan Martin usually plays well against our rucks, as does Zorko.
Another guy I would like to squash is Hodge. He is a thug. Now he makes the Lions run taller.

- I reckon IF Kreuzer plays, he'll play fwd alot and Phillips will have a crack at Martin. All Flip needs to do is break even with Martin (like he did vs Ryder). Mackay or Kerr will come in if Kreuzer doesnt get up.
- Dow needs a rest.
- Levi was bad last week, whether it was form or a sore hand, either way the omission is good.
- Mullet and Garlett omissions fair enough.
- Marchy straight in, I guess thats how highly he is rated internally and quite frankly, I happy to see him back. If he doesnt come up, Kerr may come in.
I think the game is winnable.
