Tanking !!!!!

If Teague wins too many games, it might make things awkward when they select a new coach.

Interchange: Thomas, Phillips, JSOS, Jones, Kennedy, SPS, Lang, Goddard.

Hard to get a handle on the "ins"....Goddard, Phillips and Jones? Already have Casboult in there. Surely they can't be serious with Lang?

Something doesn't make sense to me.

Obviously its squads but...
Out. Tall forward.
In. 2 key backs and 1 ruck.   ??

Why not Kerr?

Kreuzer must be under an injury cloud with Phillips named

Cripps out = Jack and/or Kennedy in.

Yes, ahrd to get a handle on their thinking. Don't mind trying 2 tall forwards to see how it goes although I'm thinking they might send Levi down there. Goddard i'd say, is only coming in if Jones is deemed ready for seniors. Not sure why Phillips is there unless they think Kreuzer is sus. Kennedy will be in i'd say.

Good question.
Kerr for H makes sense, and his effort is always solid in 2's.
Maybe the tall defender additions leave the option to swing Levi forward.

As for Lang. I haven't seen the effort in the 2's that warrant a game in the 1's. I'm assuming he's fully recovered from his injury, so his form in 2's reflects his desire rather than injury niggles ????

Oh, and Crippa out ???? we'll get slaughtered around the contest - game over!

Cripps is a sprained foot. 1-2 weeks. Harry groin soreness.

They kept the Crippa injury dead quiet.

in some ways it's good - let's see whether SPS, Dow, Setters, Kennedy etc. can stand up. SPS, Fish both Wa lads.

Philips in does suggest Kreuzer is marginal.
Finals, then 4 in a row!

His form suggests it's been something he's been carrying.

I agree flyboy. It is the perfect opportunity for our mids to show their wares. Their greatest challenge for the past 2years.

I hate to be pessimistic but if our hopes are pinned on Lang in the middle, we're buggered. I like the way Setters has been building but he's still only played a handful of games. I'm guessing Ed will tag Fyfe or Mundy, hope he can win some ball like he did v Lions.

Pity the poor bugger matched on Walters, from a competitive perspective as well as a head protection perspective  ::) Maybe Plowman gets the job and wears his helmet ????

Imagine this scenario - the centre bounce is contested by the centre and rovers named by each team.

Fyfe, Conca and Mundy vs Dow, Setterfield and Walsh  :o

And on the wings - Brad Hill and Ed Langdon vs Marc Murphy and LOB.

We may as well save the airfare and forfeit.

Well, this puts a damper on our premiership hopes.

Well we're about to find out what some folks have been wondering about for some time... without actually wanting to see it. :( :(

The 'elephant in the room' is about to be addressed.
