Omitted normally means dropped due to poor form, that's harsh, far from our worst last week.

Haven't been a huge fan of Murphy's form this year but thought he was pretty good last week and he kicked one and set up another when things were tight in the third quarter....one of our better ball users for sure. As someone else suggested, far from our worst last week. It's a small ground at the SCG and thought Martin could easily play on a wing instead of Cottrell......although Cottrell might get a bit of a run with job on someone like Florent.

Although Murph has had some good qtrs his 4 qtr efforts have not been good - BUT, he's not Robinson C. in that regard. If his missus is due to have a littlun this w/e it would make sense for him to be an emergency. Now I'll stop jumping at shadows.

I suspect the sMurph omission is contingency in case they go into the mini-hub given his missus is due.
Hard to understand him being dropped after his efforts in the 3rd Qtr last game, the "omitted" line might be a bit of privacy concerns given the trolls that would come to play if he said he was staying or going home to his pregnant missus.
I wish them both the very best, it's a million times more important than footy!

If Murphy has been omitted on form, what photographs does Gibbons have? :o
Apart from Murphy's absence, I'm happier with our forward line than I have been for a while. I think that we have set Sydney's defenders a challenge, and we have the capacity to help out our defence if necessary.

Murphy's 3rd quarter against hawthorn was massive last week.
Id be gobsmacked if he's dropped on the back of that. Its the pregnancy stuff IMHO.

Levi has been average all year. Lets rush him back and put him in a forward line with 3 200cm+ key forwards.
TDK and McKay got in each others way last week. Competed for the same ball. With time it will become less of an issue.
Murphy is one of very few that can hit a target inside 50.
Bizarre selections for mine.
