Cottrell for the Lizard.....?

Just get Jack to give him a clip again ... not that I'm advocating violence  :)

Actually, Jack could put a bit of work into Blakey and keep him accountable.  Sydney's defence is under-sized and will struggle against our three talls and Martin.  If Blakey is busting a gut trying to defend Martin or one of our talls, as well as trying to help his teammates, he's not going to be taking off on too many runs down the ground.

Sometimes I think that supporters worry too much about opposition players and don't think about how difficult it will be for the opposition to stop our blokes running amok.

Not that long ago Boyd was the whipping boy, now I feel assured when I see him with the ball and even near the ball.  Not saying Cowan will do the same but I hope he does.  Our mate Marchbank might have other feelings about Boyd though.

Marchbank and Boyd play different roles.

Marchbank plays a similar role to McGovern and Kemp

All of our defenders and our defensive structures stood up very well to intense pressure last week.  Apart from Petracca, all of the Melbourne forwards were well beaten.

I would be inclined to go with the same seven this week unless there’s a compelling match up for Williams AND he’s completely fit.

I reckon he is straight back in for indigenous round.

Its happened before.
