Out: Zaharakis, Bellchambers, Cutler & Francis
In: Mozzie, Draper, Ham & Hurley

B: Gleeson BZT Saad
HB: Redman Hurley Ridley
C: McKenna McGrath Ham
HF: Mozzie McKernan Smith
F: Langford Stewart Walla
R: Draper Merrett Shiel

I/C: Parish Snelling Guelfi Clarke

I fully expect Townsend to come in, which will probably free up Langford to play more minutes on the wing, which isn’t necessarily a bad thing IMO. Not sure who makes way in that scenario, though - probably Clarke or Ham but I’d really much rather be getting more games into those kids.

Read between the lines: I’m proposing a Nicholas Cage / John Travolta style Faceoff swap to get Moz in.

It’s our only hope now

Changed my mind, with Guelfi to wing to tag Hill.

McKenna returns to backline and Saad to then shut out Butler

Two fresh forward pressure men in.

OUT: TBell, Zerk, Francis, Cutler, Zaka
IN: Draper, Hooker, Hurley, Townsend, Moz (debut)

B: Saad Hooker Ridley
HB: Gleeson Hurley McKenna
C: Guelfi McGrath Langford
HF: Smith Stewart TIPPA
F: Mosquito Smack Townsend
R: Draper Shiel Zerrett

B: Parish Clarke Snelling Redman

B: Saad, Hurley, Redman
HB: Francis, Zerk-Thatcher, Ridley
C: McGrath, Parish, McKenna
HF: Langford, Stewart, Snelling
F: McDonald-Tipungwuti, Hooker, Smith
R: Draper, Shiel, Merrett
INT: McKernan, Mosquito, Gleeson, Guelfi
IN: Draper, Mosquito, Hooker, Hurley
OUT: Bellchambers, Clarke, Cutler, Zaharakis

If Hooker is right, get him in and play him forward. We need him down there to clunk a few. I know people were having a go at Zerk tonight but stick with him because he will be a player. I’d be seriously tempted to go with Belly and Drapes but Smack (just) gets the nod. Also Belly probably won’t pull up all that well off a 3-day break. It’s simply fine to being Mozz in, especially with Zaka now injured. They might go Cahill instead knowing our selectors being risk adverse. Cutler and Clarke make way.

McKernan needs to go. 2nd effort has been non existent for weeks. Get Mozzie in and watch Tippa go up a level. Wouldn’t mind giving Phillips a go at full forward changing with Draper. Clarke needs to stay, tries hard every game.

Drop Guelfi and leave Clarke in.

You coming up with bullshit again?

Out: Bellchambers, Zaharakis, cutler, BZT, Smith (managed), McKernan

2 rucks is essential if Ryder is back. Imagine him verse smack…

Marshall and Ryder would go to town on Draper as they could go 50/50 each and Draper is 3rd gamer

Really good point you raise! Our 2nd unit ruck will get slaughtered, and you know they’ll pick him, game against former club and all that. Would sway me to go with Belly or Phillips.

Play Guelfi in his correct position and he will be fine. Clarke’s kicking makes him a liability.

Given Stewarts groin issues previously can he actually withstand 3 games in 9 days?

moz is dreamtime

gimmie ham for cutler plse

I would also have towner in with McKenna on the wing. Maybe guelfi out

I was just thinking that.

And Stewart played a lot more minutes than Mckernan.

Think they may be looking to rest Stewart now considering.

If Hooker is available, he comes in to play forward.

I’ve seen enough of cutler to suggest he is an athlete not a footballer. Guelfi takes his spot on wing. Guelfi is smart, quick.

Out: cutler, belly, Zaka, Francis

In: Draper, Hurley, mozzie, ham

Tippa and Smith look like they need rest too, but don’t have replacements for them.

out zaka, belly, francis, cutler

In Draper, hurley, crauford, Moz

If the title of that other thread is correct, then there’s is only one change.
