I'd like to see Setterfield get a crack resting forward to allow Cripps to stay further out of the forward zone, cut down Cripps kilometers. Keep Charlie out and up the ground as well, he is already covering lots of ground so I don't see any point restricting his movement especially with McGovern out!
I could see SoJ do a run with Ziebell though, that might be a nice match up for us!
I suspect we do not win with too many injuries forcing the changes, but you never know as sometimes these things go the other way simply because you become an unknown to the opposition! But I'm not sure BB as a coach is ready for that, he's not yet got the freedom or earned the right to experiment like Clarkson.
Even with players out we should beat Nth Melbourne who are rockbottom, we cant use injuries as excuses given their poor form and they also have a lengthy injury list.
This is our big chance after the Hawks game to show we are the real deal and put away a bottom team.
