Malthouse also announced on Wednesday that Irish international rookie Ciaran Sheehan would make his debut for the Blues against Gold Coast this Saturday.
If we lose to GC can MM blame the inexperienced list, injuries or suspensions, it didn't help Ratten!
No sign of Watson, there's a sign indeed!
Looking forward to seeing him in action. Hopefully a few of the other young guys will get a decent run in the last few games too.

I am sure he will. Covers all bases does MM

Still time for the teams to be announced but it would be difficult to see Watto making it if he doesn't get a game here.
Nothing like the prospect of a new player, especially an Irish one!
Watson would be a chance to come in for Blaino.

He'd be a chance to replace Henderson. Menzel in for Blaine and Sheehan in for someone like Brock.
hopefully Ellard!!!!!
Hopefully Menzel is right to come back as I'd bring him in along with Cripps and Sheehan. Keep Johnson and drop McLean and Ellard with Henderson out injured.
Suns by 3 goals
You'd think with the lack of players we have left who are available this is our last real chance to win the game. I was tipping us to win before Henderson was ruled out, now I don't know.
If we put in the same effort as we did v. Freo I think we'll get over the line but team selection will certainly be interesting.
I'm totally meh about this game.
Good that Sheehan gets a cracked though. He'll make it interesting.

Our whole season has been a slowly deflating tyre at best. I am not too sure we will get over the line on this one, and for the sake of better picks, would probably benefit with this loss to be honest. not what I am hoping for, but it wouldn't surprise me at all.
If it was up on the coast I would say we will struggle but as Cookie suggested if we come with the same effort as vs Freo we should win.
The Big GC forwards Day, Dixon and Lynch will be a concern if they all play..not sure of their injury status though...ditto for Smith.
Cameron Wood needs to rebound after the Freo game...no use dwelling on that fatal last kick and needs to dominate this game and give us 1st use of the footy...

EB I think Dixon is in doubt and Zac Smith is gone for the year.

Thats some good news Cookie and lets hope the lads can give Sheehan the gatorade shower..no excuses with Ablett not playing and their best ruckman in Smith out.

It is nice to see Sheehan and Menzel get a game, but there are still a few blokes there who can consider themselves pretty lucky to be getting a game. But surprising me is not what it is all about.
Two Irishmen in the senior team who have been playing the game for 5 minutes between them and we can't recruit footballers through the national draft to save our life.
Good luck to young Sheehan, I'm surprised that we aren't getting senior games into Cripps, Johnson had to get dropped on last week, it looks like Watson, Lucas and McInness are gone.
That's another two first rounders up in smoke along with Bootsma.
I think we'll win by a couple of goals.
Why did Johnno get dropped, I thought he looked ok and is part of the future.
Maybe he goes up a pay level if he plays x number of games ;)
Would rather Armfield ahead of Ellard too. Cripps ahead of both easily.......
The sunners by 3 goals...
WTF Graham as sub? You know I try so hard to embrace Malthouse but he just keeps on pulling crap like this. The guy is a forkwit, EOS.
Not just mick...mckay ...selects as well.....

Frustrating as that is, he's a much better sub than Brock at least.
Heard a prematch chat with Andrew Walker (MMM) and if I heard correctly, he said that his PRESEASON was hampered by the knee injury that has now been rectified by surgery!!!! No wonder he looked below par all year
No 1 rule: DONT play injured players, get 'em fixed!!!
