    Would he be so keen if it wasn't a PF ?
    I think he's just jumping on the bandwagon....

      We need MO back to beat Bris - not sure if Saddington actually has any good match-ups against them.

      He certainly does against the other potential Grand Finalists.

        Saddo shouldn't play unless he's 100%, plus who would you drop??

        It's a tough call but even if he's 95% it's a risk in such a big game.

          IMO he's the player we can most afford to do without ATM.

          He's been average to say the least this year.

            Has to be 100%, simply hasn't been good enough this year to justify being ahead of Stevens or Powell unless completely fit.

              Who would you pick out of those two?

              I would like Powell as he goes a bit harder than Scotty IMO.

                Stevens has done nothing wrong and deserves his spot. Powell would be ok, but doesn't have the size to take a KPP - he is way too skinny.

                The fact that Stevens has more experience and is a better mark also make him the man for the job.

                  I'd agree that Saddo's form probably doesn't warrant selection

                    Don't want to sound harsh, but before he went down he was getting spanked by good CHF.

                    So save it for next years saddo.

                      Saddo hasnt been a favourite of mine since his return from injury. Before injury, he was playing great, with strong marks and spoils. Roosy selects him because we need his height. But he is too skinny to match up against a normal tall forward (who are usually quite bulky).

                        I will not be happy if Saddo gets a game, he was geting an absolute caining by players, til he got injured.

                          Just watched the Ten news and it was cofirmed by Roosy that Saddo is a big chance (together with MO) to appear in PF.

                            Saddo got though training so its a good sign. To those who dislike him, I think we've been here before. O'Keefe also got though and should play
