As an aside....who played on Michael Walters last week....was it Stocker or Saad or a bit of both? I wasn't taking notice but after the game realised Walters had only had about 10 touches and one goal.....he's having an ordinary year but not too many more dangerous players around than him. Whoever did that role should've got a mention.
Stocker...Walters just looked lazy all day, rumour is he wants more midfield time ,doesnt like Longmuir and wants out.

Very Cheeky and arrogant resting players, hope we knock them over.....Williamson very unlucky unless Cripps pulls out at the last minute.

Emergencies:

Matthew Cottrell, Zac Fisher, Will Setterfield, Tom Williamson

Joel Selwood is being rested this week Hope that means they are taking us a little lightly.

That's about 10 less free kicks to the Cats, which should help.

We only lost an "on" this week....lol.

IN: Williams
OUT: Williamson

Willo is unlucky to miss out.  Zac will have to put in a very good game to justify his selection.

I'm perplexed that Fisher and Setterfield are straight back in the mix after injury.  Neither of them should be walk-up starts on pre-injury form.  It must be frustrating for a couple of players in the twos.

I would think that Setterfield will come in if Cripps doesn’t pull up. (If I see Cripps predominantly using his left foot, I’ll do a Terry Wallace!!)

Shaun Higgins should pick up that slack......usually gets them near goal too, they must be sponsored by NIDA at the Cattery.

EB.....Longmuir denied the rift in the paper here today.....but his form has been ordinary all year so something's not right. Walters wants to play in the middle but Longmuir committed to younger blokes like Brayshaw, Cerra, Serong etc....and then Fyfe/Mundy as well....

Something is wrong Surfie, Walters is a very good footballer but played like he was in a purple haze, not sure why Longmuir didnt give him a run in the middle when they were struggling.
Could see him at another club if it continues...

If they're not performing in the contest, we'll certainly see them directing the umpiring 😁

 Won't run both ways, so he is exposed under the current rules.

Yes and one could replace Cripps and one could be the medical sub.  Being named in the 26 should be a reward for form and effort and, if that was the case, Honey and Kemp would be named before Setterfield and Fisher.

I think its more about the opposition we are facing and what we might need in the team.

In that case Willo would stay in the team and Williams would come in for Martin.  Cottrell, Martin, Honey and Kemp would be the emergencies.
