team lineup V Doggies

[ernie koala]

Well, the pain of sorts, starts now.

With Shaw returning to the lineup....there will be one unlucky out....Probably Cunningham

No doubt there will be more to come as others return...

A good conundrum, but a little painful considering how well the new players have fitted in and played.

Lamb takes the place of Parker in the 18
This is Parker's 50th game - interesting

You'd think Cunningham will go back to the twos after doing two games in the green vest.

If fit Shaw would make a great sub.

I'd like to see Mal rested this week to make sure that shoulder is ok. He appeared troubled by it the whole game.

[DamY]

I think BJ might get dropped, Cunningham will probably get dropped as well for match fitness reasons. I hope Shaw and Morto get a run!!!

I don't think Morton's coming back bar injury unfortunately.

[aardvark]

Shaw for Cunningham unless Mal doesn't make it through friday training is my guess.

[Auntie.Gerald]

Shaw playing 70% of the game and certainly not going to wear the red vest......

we need to get game time into Rhys against a team like the Dogs so Rhys is truly ready leading into the Finals

WELCOME BACK MR SHAW - You are the voice of the backline !!!!

Although I want Harry to be there I think BJ and Lambie are trying very very hard to run out the games and they are just in front of Harry........... and BJ will most likely get the red jersey me thinks !

Lambie can play upfront and midfield and I would guess that Andrejs will play the swingman role and get some game time upfront as well as in the backs. Andrejs game time and development in a dual role is critical now .............we are leading into the finals and a tall swingman will be critical in finals style games with height a massive factor for matchups

Tommy to rotate thru the midfield predominantly as he appears to be doing the last two years !

SUB: B.Jack

I'd love to see him out there too, but don't you reckon there must a slight doubt over his fitness, which is why he's named on the bench? Either that or he's going to wear the green vest.

The good thing is we are starting to bring back our missing players ahead of the finals.

[ugg]

Shaw and Biggs flying to Melbourne. Assume Shaw is playing and Biggs is the traveling emergency

Cunningham is out

[swansrob]

Shaw would be sub you'd think - either way, it'll be great to see him back on the park!

[Nico]

Good to see we are not resting players. Heading to the finals with a solid squad.

[Bloodthirsty]

I'm still not sure how Shaw fits back into our team structurally, but if you are going to bring him back, you wouldn't make him sub. Even if he's completely stuffed by the end of it and needs to do way more recovery afterwards, this is a rare opportunity to get run into his legs.

We don't have enough fit players to be resting anyone!

He makes a great small fwd!!

Very true.
