I'd be gob-smacked if Kennedy and Dow are the only two débutantes, I'd expect Garlett to also get a run assuming the injury reports are accurate.

I won't be surprised if Mullett gets a run against Richmond, we need pace in the defensive 50 and he has it

Yep, agree. Especially with Pickett going down. I watched the replay (v Dawks JLT) again yesterday and wouldn't be surprised if O'Brien get a gig as well, especially with Cuningham being disappointing again (poor tackles, fades in and out and craps trou under pressure). He'd be a long shot though.

Admittedly I've never watched him play, but comments on here suggest he's not really defensively minded.

From what i saw of him, he struggles to find a bloke wearing the same coloured jumper! No good being quick if you hand it back to the opposition.

I actually thought he was ok in the 2nd JLT game. I just think the way they score is with pace and pressure in the forward line, to combat that you need pace and smarts, we have the smarts but I'm not sure we have the pace

There's pace of player then there's pace of ball movement....i think the Tigers are more about the latter than the former....
