I read what you wrote.

You're assuming what the club should be doing but it doesn't mean that's what's happening, particularly if we're trying to balance the books.

Not all players will be on bonuses so your example doesn't quite fit.

I never said all players were on bonuses. I never said any players were on bonuses.
The only bonuses that are written in stone is 1st and 2nd year games played bonuses.

Some clubs don't pay bonuses at all.

Whatever we do, plan for worst case scenario. Simple.

Lord in this week, I guess they have to justify the mid season selection. McMahon would have been handier this week.
In any case, go well son.

Meanwhile only one debutant....  would have thought we'd have news on lemmey at least.  Suggests that we are bringing in young and not much else.

So far.

There's still time.

There has to be more. It will be a utter miracle to win with 6 changes (up to half of which will be debutants)

Apparently young Cooper is going to alternate between CHF and FF as well as giving Pitto a spell in the ruck.

Seriously though, good luck to the young man.  He has really had a crack since we picked him up.
It's still the Gulf of Mexico, Don Old!

So, I wonder if our starting 23 for this Sunday's game is:
Cowan
Motlop
O Hollands
Williams
Kennedy
Cripps
McGovern
Acres
Fantasia
Carroll
Kemp
Walsh
E Hollands
Weitering
Newman
Binns
Pitto
Hewett
Young
Lord
Cincotta
Owies
Small Durds
Only our ruthless best, from Board to bootstudders will get us no. 17

Against the grain, but I wouldn't bring in Lemmey.   He really hasn't shown enough and first game against someone like J.McGovern he could just be a liability.

Go small with Mitch McGovern up forward and Young down back.   Young can play on a man and Kemp can play the McGovern role.    A combo of M.Kennedy and Cripps as a 2nd forward.

Boyd > Cincotta back.    C.Lord in.
Fogarty > Durdin.
Curnow > Young in.    McGovern forward
Saad > Binns in.  
McKay > Carroll
Martin > Fantasia

Forward line of
E.Holland, McGovern, Z.Williams
Motlop, Kennedy/Cripps, Owies

Z.Williams can go back, but I doubt he has the fitness to play half back.   Durdin or Fantasia forward.
If we go small it might make life difficult for McGovern and co

Yep.

Hewett and Lord rotating?
Toss up for moi between Kemp and McGovern going forward. Agree Young must go back.
Cincotta has the speed to keep with their quickest smaller forward.
