Willo straight in? Surely he will come back through the 2s? If he comes straight in, that says a hell of a lot.

Prefer if they all come back via the twos...season is over for us, we dont need half fit players rushed back...Marchbank looked unfit when he last played coming back from injury and Kennedy has been banged up all season....get them fit and firing in the NB's first IMO..
Love to see Williamson in but after a bad back I'd be easing him into the team slowly....

I watched the injury update, Macca says he will play VFL if he passes the tests.

If we had something like a full list to select from I would go into the game with a lot of confidence. However, with the injuries we have, it will be difficult.
Gawn is one of the best rucks in the game who usually beats Kreuzer. It will be interesting to see if Phillips returns.

We can't lose sight of the fact that 'our win' was against an ordinary side in poor form. The Snow Chalets are a good side in very good form. Realistically, they won't let us get away with some of the things we did against cheats.com.au ...gulp...
Only our ruthless best, from Board to bootstudders will get us no. 17

Do we get extra time to select a team given that the AFL have ginned us around today?
DrE is no more... you ok with that harmonica man?

Would give Shaw a run for Mullett.

The 4th a raffle - no place for Kerr with Charlie and Harry up there....Jack? Maybe as a goal kicking mid?

Or keep Graham in - who'd been very serviceable...
Finals, then 4 in a row!

Think the coach likes Mullett ....Graham probably deserves another game but I think is the most vulnerable and probably JackS the one to take his palce...

Basically I reckon In Murphy Out Ed Curnow. At a pinch, Weiters might come in for OShea.

I would like to see Jack tried as a coalface mid supporting Cripps. Good chance to test him out in that role at senior level. Not sure he's got the tank yet to go the whole game in that role so would have to rotate somewhere else, say spells forward. Be a shame to drop any from last week but maybe one in addition to Ed will be unlucky?
We will miss Ed's negating talents and for this reason I think Shaw may get a gig to replace him.
Reality always wins in the end.
