Gorringe will have his work cut out in his first game.  In fact, the entire team will have a huge challenge to be competitive.

It's interesting that Wood is an emergency.  Does that mean he's been upgraded in place of Charlie Curnow?

Meanwhile, Cameron Wood has been elevated from the rookie list as the replacement for Harry McKay, who was previously placed on the club’s long-term injury list.

McKay was placed on LTI when he was first injured. Curnow is at the club on light duties but not sure when he will be fit again. Could be two weeks could be two months no one knows but is improving.

We have to keep the ball away from their forward line so a high intensity mid field effort from us will be paramount. If Wood is the emergency I wonder if Gorringe is under some doubt?
Reality always wins in the end.

Nothing like being thrown in the deep end, we'll quickly find out if he will sink or swim.

Thanks GTC.

I think given our outs, the club has done pretty good damage limitation work. On paper, that group doesn't look too bad. Realistically, I don't see how the club could've done much better.

Weiters is picked, but last week was 2-3 weeks away. Not sure if he plays.

If he is a late out, then Wood will come in.

Wood will replace Gorringe as 1st ruck.
Gorringe will play key forward in place of Rowe.
Rowe will go down back in place of Weitering.

Bit convoluted, but its the only way we can get a balanced team should Weitering go out.

Obviously, Cripps is a bit touch and go after hurting his knee last week. Straight swap for Graham.

Agree. Dont know how good or bad Gorringe has been in the 2's but I guess its irrelevant now. I am sure BB has told him:
- Take hold of your opportunity
- Rip into every ruck contest as hard as you can and absolutely give it to Goldy. Especially the first one, needs to hurt him (legally) if possible.
He cant match him for talent, he can match him for effort and physicality.

It seems we have maybe put C. Curnow on the LTI , and promoted Wood.

I reckon Wood may play if that's the case. Don't who he would replace though. :o

Not a bad team considering the  forced outs.
I spent most of my money on Women and grog.
The rest I just wasted.

Yes, there's a "rolling the dice" feel to a couple of those selections.
