We might not need either O'Mac or Young this week, perhaps Kemp is the better choice.
Maybe, but Kemp and Young could be the future. We need to know if we wanna persist with OMac.
He was pantsing Young (and kemp) in the pre-season. Deserves another crack.

Young was good against the Hawks but looked shaky last week for sure. I'm surprised he wasn't given a run in the ruck last week.

I agree, when he is certified as fit.

Pittonet + Parks are named in starting 18

Plowman, Boyd and Cripps will miss this week.

Fogarty, Fisher, Setterfield - very lucky.

I would have dropped all these three before Plowman (and its no secret what think of him).

Fogarty should buy a Tattslotto ticket. Likewise, Fisher.

Please, Motlop, put in a blinder in the Magoos.

No Stocker?

Hopefully Parks doesn't get the job on Finlayson when he goes forward.....he'll be way too smart for Parks.

Finlayson would be too big for Parks and probably Weitering or Young would have to take him.....I dont want Parks on Georgiadis either, kid kicks like an arrow and Parks isnt the smartest defender on our list from what I have seen.
Gray would want to have a close checking player on him too, hope he is rusty...
Hayes is on the extended bench so I expect Lycett to be an out, .....

We had trouble matching up on Gold Coast's tall forwards with Lukosius, Chol and Casboult all stretching our taller defenders.  Taking Young away from defence would have made life very difficult for our backs.

Well, now I know why I didn't get a response to my offer to sit on the match committee, I obviously have NFI  :)

Actually, I think that Parks deserves a call up.  He is a very different footballer to the raw but enthusiastic bloke who did a fairly good impression of a headless chook in his games last year.  I would back him in to get the better of whoever he is matched up against.

I am a little surprised that Paddy Dow didn't crack it for a definite spot in the 22.  If he doesn't make the final 22, he has to be the sub.

I reckon the final four players will be De Koning, O'Brien, Setterfield and Williams, with Owies unlucky to miss out.

Personally I think Plowman is a bit stiff, in the last quarter it was only the old blokes like Doc and Plowman having a genuine crack, but then it was too late and too little effort from too few. The damage was done by the lack of impact from guys like Martin, Fogarty, Cerra and Fisher over the first 3/4.

I'm not a critic nor a fan of Plowman. As objective as I can be, the bloke does seem to suffer from too few strings to his bow. He gives his all and in certain circumstances is reliable, but possibly too easily exposed.

Parks deserved to be picked. Still a little rough around the edges but is a competitive beast, and we love that.

Stocks probably needs another week in the Magoos... too early for recall.

Perhaps we need to remember that Vossy & Co. have only been there 5 minutes and still need time to learn about certain blokes. He's certainly giving them every opportunity. If Fisher has 'peaked'... he's on borrowed time.

We've one of the longest injury lists in the comp. Once these blokes are up and about, our game day 23 may look very different: Stocker, Honey, Motlop, McGovern, Kemp, Marchbank (if he gets past glassman syndrome), Cuningham (IF he continues on from where he left off and makes a full recovery from that knee), Carroll and Philp.

Ed C might be nearing the end. Mirkov is a diamond in the rough. Willo needs to make another step up.

My fingers are crossed for Young and Omac. A versatile tall defender may well end up being an end of season priority.

The coach's box battle on Sunday may well be intriguing.

Though undoubtedly very talented, Cerra needs to put more ticker into his game. And to say that Martin needs to lift (big time) is an understatement.

True, but perhaps a bit harsh on Martin.  I have watched him closely this season and he works hard all game.  However, his leads are often ignored and he is expected to take contested marks when we go long down the line.
