Chris Newman has an issue with a heart arrhythmia and will miss 2 weeks of training while it's addressed.  He'll probably miss Rd 1.  I doubt if the Tigers would be greatly prejudiced by his unavailability.

Apparently that heart thing happens to quite a lot of sports-people, I've heard it is something to do with potassium levels and fluid intake.

Greg Denham says Andrew McKay told him that AW is 50/50 to play as he struggles to recover from knee surgery, Warnock may miss because of the injury he suffered against Collingwood but Gibbs should be right.  Denham says, reading between the lines, that Jones and Casboult might be competing for the one spot.

Going by that,   AW will not play until round 5.  Warnock is out of favour and Gibbs will be the sub.

That side looks top heavy to me, too slow and not suited for the wide open spaces of the MCG.

I think we will see another small on the field in the form of Graham or Smith type.

I don't think Boekhorst is ready, we won't pick him, Tutt or Ellard over a fit Buckley.

Jones and Jaksch are note certain to both get a start ahead of Casboult, Sheehan or White.

I think it's highly unlikely, assuming we are not already wrecked with injuries, that you will get all of Jaksch, Jones, Tutt, Boekhorst in this first game together. Five first gamers, I doubt it!

Going by Denham's track record 1AW is a certainty, Gibbs is out for the season, Casboult / Jones will be the twin talls up forward with Warnock our starting ruck!
