Good to see Vogels named at CHF, let's hope he does not sustain a late 'injury'.

[Newbie]

Good to see that LRT is named at CHB too. That means his experiment is continuing .

I would wait until the final line up is named tomorrow night

Still hopefully this means Spriggs gets the axe and we allow someone with a FUTURE to play.

IN: Jolly, McVeigh, Malceski

OUT: Davis, Spriggs, Bevan (is it possible to be dropped from the 22 if you're named in the starting 18?)

Rob - whether he plays or not, it's a sign that he's very close. Has he been named as an emergency before?

Last week I think.

Bevan won't be dropped.

Be surprised (and disappointed) if Moore doesn't get at least one more go in this run. Can't see Saddo dropping out, not Monty after a very good game last week.

That means it should come down to one of Schneider, Spriggs, McVeigh or Malceski. If anyone is going to come in it would probably be McVeigh. However, I notice that he has already been announced as one of the players to attend this week's aftermatch at the MA Noble, along with a handful of other reserves players. That leads me to believe that Spriggs will retain his spot.

I hope so, those would be my changes too.

Once at least.

Yes, "IF" your injuried. But if your named in the 18 you are certain to play barring some late mishap, so at this stage if Spriggs is axed it will be between McVeigh and Malceski for that spot on the bench. I'm more inclined to think McVeigh would get the call, but you never know with the coaching staff (and that means they could name Schneider instead of McVeigh and Malceski)

Rob - whether he plays or not, it's a sign that he's very close. Has he been named as an emergency before?

Yes, for the Eagles game. Not doubting he is close or anything, but I rather wait until he is in the side for sure before conratulating him.

Taking a guess I don't think Malceski will play.
Buchanan deserves his spot, so does Moore and Saddington.
McVeigh was best afield in the reserves with 8 goals and 40 posessions.If he doesn't get a call up he will be stuck there forever.
I think the naming of Malceski is a reward for a good game in reserves(according to the report he was second to McVeigh as best player) and a bit of encouragement.
Roos stated early last week that Moore was going to play his first game so if Malceski was going to play I thought more would have been made of it.
But who knows.

[Snowy]

If you're in the actual 18 you will play unless you're withdrawn through injury.

[NMWBloods]

I'd love to see Malceski play, but I think McVeigh will get a gig.

I think the bench will be Buchanan, McVeigh, Moore, Saddington

BTW - is that the shortest (height wise) extended bench ever!

[BonBon]

Malceksi! Yipee! <3!
