Half-forwards: Matthew Owies Harry McKay Matthew Kennedy

Interchange: Jordan Boyd Jack Carroll Matthew Cottrell Corey Durdin Orazio Fantasia
Emergencies: Jaxon Binns Marc Pittonet Lewis Young
My 2 cents on our selections:
[1] I can't imagine why Marchbank isn't coming back via the VFL. I know he was very good last start, but ... Kemp, in particular, is unlucky. I thought he played pretty well last week and took some important marks when it was necessary. Young also did little wrong; Lynch's goals were very suspect. Having 2 underdone key defenders does not seem to be smart to me.
[2] Corey Durdin and Orazio Fantasia are very lucky to be there. Neither has done much so far. To be honest, I was hoping that Fantasia could get some form and match fitness in the VFL. Durdin worked quite well last week, but he only had 2 possessions.
[3] I'm interested to see Pitto as an emergency. If Goldstein were still playing for North, I'd have liked to have him in the ruck. Xerri is a bull, but I'm hoping Tom can out-jump him. Having the extra tall forward (Tom resting) could really stretch their backline.
[4] Binns can't be far away, nor Cincotta.,Binns didn't impress so much in the VFL last week, but Cincotta did.
[5] North have a very attacking pair of HBF's, but neither of them defend so much. Playing through their opponents might be a smart idea.
