Pretty sure I heard McGovern has been ruled out also? Mind you it was Dwayne on SEN.

Surfie...Not sure I'd call them smaller defenders either like Saad...more mid sized, none of them are going to have the wheels or tricks to keep with the Saints small forwards like Higgins, Butler etc.
Dont have a problem with a mid playing back but they have to be able to defend those players not just pick up easy kicks...no use picking up 20 plus possies but Higgins and crew have kicked multiple goals on you...

Kemp is probably the only one with genuine leg speed though....we're down Williams, Docherty and Saad....not a lot left in the cupboard as far as small/medium defenders until someone like Boyd comes back....backline beginning to look a bit like last year, only the smaller blokes this year are going down.

Remember, we’ll have to wait until Friday night for real selection news. Tonight it’s just a squad of 26 and we know with Saad out that will mean 5 ins. I guess the only real news will be whether there are any other names in the outs.

Fair points, we know Saad is out for certain so they will only name him as an out and the rest 4 ins.

I have to admit that I fear the worst for us in this game unless we can find some much better form, and I don't mean just digging a bit deeper for this week. I am yet to be convinced about our ability to be consistently good. ?
Reality always wins in the end.
