Reckon Lamb & Sumner got the nod over Graham owing to speed over the grass and fronting up to their previous club. NG has worked hard but that lack of pace does hurt him, his disposal has improved though he did commit a horrible clanger against the Kangabies. Lamb does bring a little mongrel as well which we like.

Both in against the old side. Maybe some inside info to help? Or some extra motivation?

I doubt that Lamb has any edge over Graham in the speed department but Graham has been more effective at the more spacious MCG.

x2...reckon that is the end for Nick Graham too....
Lamb might provide a bit more goalkicking ability as he does kick straight but vs GWS you need plenty of midfielders to rotate, reckon that means Wright up the ground more and maybe Lamb
down playing the FP role...

Part of the sorting out process I guess? Final chances before decisions are made.

Would that be a Cavoodle or Labradoodle Baggers?

I'm just a little concerned that we have both Lamb and Sumner in the 22.  Happy to be proved wrong as always.

It may be the reverse EB1.

Lamb's last game at the NBs he seemed to spend a fair amount of time behind the ball rotating on-ball. It could be freeing Wright up to stay forward, we know clubs have dragged Wright away from goal in recent weeks.

Congratulations to big Kruez and Lachie Plowman.
Hope the boys give their all making for a memorable milestone event.

All the best to the Jones boy and Jed Lamb. Make this game your own fellas and give the selectors a headache.

Go new Blues
