Well we know what the game plan this week is

Run, run, run

Lots of speed in those named

I feel a lack of things to complain about with those INs.

Wait till tomorrow night to see if the right four go out.

EDIT: oh ■■■■, not double-teaming Gawn.

my guess is first 4 named in the team on the bench playing.

from: 45. Conor McKenna, 4. Kyle Langford, 3. Darcy Parish, 11. David Zaharakis,

and second 4 named on bench emergencies.

emg: Brayden Ham, 13. Orazio Fantasia, 35. Matt Guelfi, 29. Patrick Ambrose

So McKenna, Langford and Parish plus one other

I thought the idea of extending the emergencies from 3 to 4 last year was to always have a ruckman as the 4th emergency? If Tbell gets injured in the warm up we’re paying 20k for a late change or going in very short.

Would have liked to see Phillips come in. If that’s not too be perhaps Ambrose to release hooker forward.

Looks like it will just be Conor for guelfi though

I think McKenna and Fantasia will 100% be in the 22. I don’t think they would have been included in the extended squad otherwise

Exciting squad named. One of the better ones we’ve named in the past few years. Just add Joe and that’s by and large our best possible mix.

Langford vs Gawn should be good.

I like Cutler in the middle

Interchange from: 45. Conor McKenna, 4. Kyle Langford, 3. Darcy Parish, 11. David Zaharakis

If it follows the first 4 rule perhaps they aren’t prepared to risk Raz just yet & needs another week of solid training.

If he does get up though Zaka the logical out there.

Snelling is named on field. Hardly put a foot wrong since he’s come to club. Well done lad.

Nothing to complain about … just teasing us til tomorrow.

Nice continuity with the line of midgets across half-forward.

Richmond type fwd line

Cutler isn’t very fond of physical contact. Not the ideal for someone playing in the middle

I would like to see Hurley CHF and Ambrose back, Snelling out…too radical?

I reckon Raz will get maybe until Saturday to prove he’s ready to go.

Oh see that’s old mates ‘warning’

Zaharakis vs the ball is another goodie
