Glad we beat adelaide hopefully we can back it up next week with another percentage boosting game.
Who are your ins and outs? Is shiel a possibility to play? Langford has “hamstring tightness”, hopefully it isnt too bad. I think heppell will be back and also potential for a DURHAM debut.
You’d hope Heppell returns for that game. Rutten said hamstring awareness for Langford. But he said that about Stewart and we didn’t see him for 7 or so weeks.
It’s beginning to run really thin in terms of midfield rotations now when you remove Shiel, Merrett, Caldwell and now Langford.
Provided Durham is ok physically and gets through in the 2’s you’d think he’d come in for Langford and Hepp for Gleeson. Not that Marty did a lot wrong. I’d keep Ham as a sub. Wouldn’t want both he and Cutler playing, personally.
Might see Perkins take a few more centre bounces with Langford out. Durham to a wing.
No idea how or where Francis comes into it but not opposed to him coming in somewhere provided we can flip things in a way that still retains our balance.
He did go down to the rooms, so I’d suggest something was up. Hopefully just precautionary, or a standard 2 week hammy at worst (so over these 8-12 weeks injuries we’re copping!).
