I think Acres/Hollands/Cottrell is a better defensive unit than Acres/Hollands/O’Brien.

Boyd should be back too but I think that he would need a game or two to fine tune his kicking.

Training shots had both Boyd and Cottrell in action, both would be a risk but potentially important against a fleet of foot Saints team. If Saad and McGovern are out I would be tempted to bring both in.

Let's talk about injuries. Each and every year we play at a disadvantage, 10-15 blokes unavailable seems the norm. Decisions need to be made, a player who is a gun but isn't available is useless. Our fitness guru has seen no improvement in speed or injury rates. Fitness and injury management need a clean out. Players like Williams, Marchbank, Cunningham etc we need to play or move on. We can't be successful playing with a smaller list than the competition.
