At least they’re named more reasonably this week. Sheeds must’ve handed back the magnets.

As expected. Happy

Stability. Good. Make big names earn their recall.
I’d suggest if green wasn’t injured he’d be lining up again.

It probably means that they’re planning to go full Sheeds on matchday. Baguley to full forward, McKernan back pocket, Hooker in the ruck.

much more sensible. With Kelly on the wing and Gleeson and McG on the bench it makes it look like we have 9 defenders. In reality you need about 7 with players resting (~85% game time for most defenders)

Brisbane named as follows:

FB 18 Nick Robertson 27 Darcy Gardiner 2 Ryan Harwood
HB 32 Sam Mayes 31 Harris Andrews 26 Tom Cutler
C 15 Dayne Zorko 5 Mitch Robinson 8 Rohan Bewick
R 12 Stefan Martin 9 Dayne Beams 38 Tom Rockliff
HF 28 Lewis Taylor 30 Eric Hipwood 10 Daniel Rich
FF 43 Jake Barrett 33 Michael Close 25 Daniel McStay

INT 4 Ryan Bastinac 7 Tom Bell 35 Ryan Lester 45 Jack Frost
EMERG 1 Ben Keays 17 Claye Beams 44 Archie Smith

Have a feeling that Matt Dea will probably set a record in 2017 for the number of times named as an emergency.

With Frost coming in that makes them quite tall. Which is interesting if it’s going to be a little wet and with all our small players

May be a touch cold up there.

Good to see all our boys rewarded for good performances. Unfortunate for Green but from all reports Howlett was barking at the door and deserves a run.

Will be a lot of pressure on they guys who fly up to perform to hold their spots.

We are gonna farkin smash 'em.
