See your point EB but none of Hawkins, Kersten or Motlop run both ways.  Their midfield is very good but shallow as well.  I can't see us winning as we won't kick enough goals but if we had a decent ruck to give us first use we could give them a scare.
DrE is no more... you ok with that harmonica man?

Selection was total crap last week. Sorry to Bolton, etc. but he's not a sacred cow and that was a disaster.

Will Gorringe get a game this weekend after 7 hitouts last week?

White was hopeless.

Rowe to forward did not work at all and weakened our defense.

Weitering was well off his best but was still ok. Did he need a game in the 2s?

Wood to play ruck, Jaksch to play key forward, Rowe back and anyone you want to replace White - Graham, Tutt.... what about SOSOS?

If Jaksch is left out again I will definitely spew up. Such an important player - to not even give him a crack in 9 rounds is - again - another real black mark on Bolton in my view. Happy to rush in Everitt and leave him in despite a series of pathetic / non-team oriented incidents yet giving Jaksh a crack is somehow unreasonable. Give me a spell.

A lot of commentators had White in their best players for the shut down job he did on Petrie  ???

Jaksch hasn't played because he hasn't shown enough in the NBs, although his form in their last game was pretty good.  Whether it's at the level the Match Committee is looking for will determine whether he is in the frame for a spot in the 22 but Fraser's assessment is pretty positive.

Quote
“I thought he was terrific, he’s been fairly consistent with us but we’re trying to get his game to the next level,” Fraser said on Jaksch.

“He played a role for us up forward today and went back and supported in defence at times - he keeps growing, he’s started to assume a leadership role with these younger players which is pleasing.”

Both named on the bench, so both highly unlikely to play.

Sunday game, so can change the emergencies before then without much of an issue.

Is the club just trying to get people interested in the match in the hope more turnup??

No idea whther they trained or match committee decided based on their age 70-80% fit will be good enough to take the risk we will find out tomorrow whether they are included.

Mckay injury report said Casboult was 3 weeks away.. I questioned on twitter with no response, saying it was originally 6-8 so now to 3...

Surely they wont play!

Weitering was 1-2 weeks away and played.

However, i doubt either of these will play

“Kreuzer has improved after the surgery quicker than expected and he had a follow-up meeting with the surgeon today,” McKay said.

“The surgeon says structurally his knee is sound, so it will be a matter of whether he can get through training over the coming days before we can consider him for selection.

“In terms of Levi, his initial MRI scan revealed a small hairline fracture to the top of his tibia, but a more recent CT scan revealed it’s actually a depression in his tibia which is a lot less severe.

“It has improved an enormous amount over the last few days.

“He will still require a thorough test tomorrow before we can rule him in or out.”

It all sounds perfectly reasonable but I'd be very surprised if both play on Sunday.

In: Kreuzer, Casboult, Jaksch

Given the circumstances someone might come out of the actual 18, which never happens for Sunday games bar injuries, if Kreuzer and Casboult are fit. You'd think, from the bench, Kerridge and Byrne will play, as would a fit Kreuzer and Casboult together with with Jones or Jaksch, the latter if I had the choice.
