On the contrary, I think Malceski is a very very long shot to make the team. But to even get into the top 40 so early in his career is an achievement in itself.
Kirk's in with more than a decent chance, though he lacks the flash factor of many others.
Bolton will be fighting it out with the likes of Egan for a third tall defensive (as opposed to rebounding) role. That's assuming Glass and Scarlett are near certainties. And while stats only tell half the picture, those of his posted over on BF compared to Egan's in terms of rebounds from 50, entries into forward 50 and total disposals stack up pretty well. Both have taken a key opposition forward every week as well, in contrast to the likes of Sam Fisher (and our own Malceski) who tend to have far lighter defensive responsibilities.
Cats fans seem to think Egan is a shoe-in. But we'll see. He's certainly been very good, but has had the luxury of playing alongside Harley and Scarlett, and behind the most dominant midfield in the comp.
