I reckon the first two of each line are near certain replacements for each other
the other i’m having a guess at who gets rested etc maybe Zerrett gets a rest instead of Parish or Tippa who knows
Not sure about Grimley - can see any point, Laverde missed a stack of games so leave him in of course, Tippa looks tired for some weeks and Redman 8 possession’s in VFL !!!- Langford played VFL so cant see any point him playing VFL when he can fit into AFL and Parish looks fine. Stokes not sure

Don’t get me wrong these arent what i would like to see, its something like what i think will happen
I agree no point in Grimley but we have no one else
Lav missed a lot of footy and training so i reckon they will consider a rest as he has come straight in almost and played a fair bit with limited preparation
Parish does look fine but they wont want to accidently break a shiny new star
Redman has been emergency last two weeks at least so i just think they might throw him “back in”
If it was up to me we would have no top ups playing bar kelly and dea
Do we rest Francis, play him in the twos or play him with less game time?
For me it’s about him putting in some kind of work for the rest of the year without breaking again.
Agree. Cotton wool is not the answer but Its up to Justin Crowe and the medicos, if the telemetry shows he is too stressed, then give him a break. The fact is that game time is the best training for playing games, so he is better off playing, so he gets used to the level. It takes maybe 4-6 games to get used to the step up in intensity and he will not experience games again for 6 months.
Dont worry about parish needing a rest. If you watch the marngrook footy show will realise that he is wrapped in cotton wool during the week and not doing all the training.
This to me suggests he can play. Yet he’s been utterley useless for us
Vfl watchers, shed any light? It doesnt make sense
Grimley is fine as a stay at home FF. Unfortunately this isn’t the early 90s (despite the similarities in youth fashion) and he is fking useless everywhere else.
Thank fark. Good move by the club. They needed to do something like this to add a little bit of interest to the match as we eagerly countdown the games left in 2016.
