    Mathews?

      Can't really find anyone to drop from our 22 at the moment.

      I guess the player at biggest risk would be Playfair; as Bevan, McVeigh, JBolton have all had pretty solid games recently. I stand on neutral ground with LRT

      Fosdike to come in possibly?

        Guessing that they may bring in Fossie for whichever of the kids is most tired. I'd be surprised if the didn't let the forwards including Playfair settle in.

        But Ben is too senior to be messed around so maybe he's listed as an emergency because they think a couple of players need two weeks off so they'll be replaced by Ben and Fossie.

        Who would Brennan be a natural replacement for?

          Fosdike for Bird might be the most logical change there.

              Maybe Mathews on the bench to get his games up?
              If it's in the clubs line of sight then the Melb game is a rare opportunity to test him???

                He's been one of the best in the ressies each week.
                However, we all saw his last attempt at seniors.

                  I wonder if they would drop him, I would have thought with Spida out Henry and Bazza would share rucking in F50 while Teddy and LRT have a go down back.
                  I personally hope he stays in. Roos is probably showing Davis his footage. Henry is the opposite of Davis. Kicks like s hit but does all the other things.
                  We need Nick to be a designated kicked for Henry

                      My only explanation for Mathews again being named, as an emergency, is to show others(are you paying attention Davo?) that hard work and club mentality count........see you down in Canberra Ben.

                        Fozzie for Bird seems the only logical move. It would be risky to let Playfair go when there is so little backup for Jolly - though we could always go with a mobile player against White.

                            So has Davis

                            The game has passed Mathews by at the top level. I watched the 2's last week and he was good but I can't get that 'Dogs game out of my head. Schmidt was quiet, but he's still a much better bet in my opinion.

                              True, but not Benny is almost double the points of Davis.

                              It reminded me of Warfes last few games.
