I'd think about playing White down forward if the coach wont play Jones or Jaksch....
100% agree EB1, we are on course to break both Cripps and Weitering, at the moment CoS would offer us more.

A Silvagni would need to be promoted to the senior list wouldn't he EB?

Not an impossibility. Alex Silvagni needs a promotion, but Gorringe is out indefinitely. That seems a decent match.
I don't think any of our other rookies have been promoted yet, so that could easily happen.
Phillips was on LTI, but he is back now and the other injuries we have may last for a while, but they have not had anyone declared LTI yet.
Live Long and Prosper!

We'd still get done by plenty, but he runs both ways a lot harder than most of the blokes did last night
Most AFL fans don't understand the defensive aspects of the sport. In the NBA and NFL their fans understand defense is just as important as offense.

We can't have Sam P-S, Poulson and Fisher in the same side in just their first season. They lack strength in the clinches. Given his lack of pre-season, maybe give Samo a rest. Fisher can also go out. Graham has to go in. I'd also play Cunningham. Weitering must do the job on Buddy and have a rest next week against the Pies. If Kreuzer isn't ready, then Phillips gets another gig...just.

Perhaps Murphy (knee) and Gibbs (broken thumb) will miss so Graham and Cunningham must come in however I would say they will go with Daisy ahead of one of them if he is right. Kreuzer for Phillips if he is ready. I reckon KJ and H did abit to put their hand up also, I think the coach is itching to get H in the side.

I'd look at Jones. Swans have a 'non name brand' ruckman and Jones put in for the NBs on Saturday.

Oh, they are those 2 'dudes' who played out the game last week and have been smashed in another thread!

Murph and Gibbs have been criticized almost from day 1 in various quarters. The other thread is something that seems very fitting in the post-Trump era.
