      does this mean Roos is prepping & preserving Willoughby up for a rd1 or 2 debut?

        I heard that Davis (D2) has photos of someone.

            Unlikely. It is probable Willo2 has an injury or hasn't trained enough leading up to this match.

              I hope its of himself because most fans have no idea what he looks like.

                  No, you can only use players that are listed with your club.

                    I believe someone mentioned here a while ago that Willoughby and Schmidt had both missed some of the pre-season with injury.

                    There is no other explanation why they would not be playing this game, considering our most recent draftees are playing.

                    Hopefully they'll play in some of the trials in coming weeks and more importantly make a debut in the first half of the season.

                        They can only get better if they play...

                        Hmmm... so does the reverse hold true...?

                        At what point is the fulcrum...?

                                Four players to come out of that squad, by the way (only 6 on the bench).

                                As far as Willoughby, Schmidt, Shaw, McVeigh and Davis...I reckon that they are being deliberately held back until next week when they step in as a group for the ones who have NO chance of playing this year...that is to say that all but one or two rookie/first year players will not play next week and that those couple will be earmarked as joining the "next in line" group.

                                Malceski, Vogels and Moore are ahead of the lot mentioned above and are pushing for selection in round one...hence playing straight away.

                                That's my take on it, anyway
