White is in an between defender rather than a tall defender and a Sydney tall would have a picnic if they only had White to contend with. Rowe had a pretty good NAB game against Sydney and he's been our most effective spoiler since Jamison's shoulder problems.
White and Buckley seem most likely to miss out but it's hard to predict what the new MC will do.
White is actually named in the 18 on field so I'd be very surprised if he is left out, whereas Rowe is named as one of the 7 potential interchanges. That was my reason to think Sam may get left out.
Reality always wins in the end.

Good point Cookie. That indicates White will be in the 22 but I suspect Rowe will be too. We'd have a seriously undermanned defence against one of the most potent forward lines in the business.
Daisy is definitely playing if Bolton's comments today are any guide (and he's named in the 18) so I suspect Buckley or Lamb will go out.
We'll be put out of our misery before long

Is that actually a rule whereby if a player is named on the ground in an extended line up he cannot be an emergency?

It's more of a convention than a rule. All of the extended interchange bench could end up in the 22. In practice, the players who miss out generally come from those named on the bench.

Tippet has been playing ruck. Surprised they dropped Rowe ahead of Jamo.

Buddy and Sinclair is still a tall order. Rowe's height would have been handy.
Of equal concern are their small forwards - too much leg speed for Tuohy, White and Docherty to cover. Would have thought Buckley would be a good match up for one of their younger forwards.

Oh well, in BB we trust! Never been a fan of Rowe TBH but would have had him in over White for sure.
