Changes for round 23 - Sydney vs Gold Coast

[aguy]

Please just pick the best strongest side that guarantees a top 4 spot??double chance if we need it

All going well we win this week ,then the next week then have a rest then?.onward to victory !!!!!!!???

Absolutely agree

[rojo]

We can't afford to mess around like Freo! We need this week for Buddy and Gary to integrate back into a team that is going to play finals and to keep the momentum going. If Benny is given another game in the Reserves I would bring James Rose back in as sub. It would be great to see how he would go second time around.

[ernie koala]

Out: Kennedy, Hannebery, Mitchell, Jetta, Richards, Grundy, Pyke, Tippett, Franklin, McVeigh, Jack, Reid, Rampe.....

That's 2 more than Freo, that should do it.

OR

Out : Smith

In : McGlynn

Wouldn't mind seeing Bird given a run in the seniors, in case we need him in the finals.

[Bloody Hell]

Hannebery must play.

He needs 7 points to overtake Fyfe in the Coaches votes....

[GongSwan]

Looked like Cunningham took a fairly heavy knock late in he game, might be a candidate for a week off, tho I have no idea who would play his role

He was hobbling on the sideline during the final qtr. if harry rests then I'd play Lloyd

[AnnieH]

they haven't called me!!

[RogueSwan]

they haven't called me!!

Have you tried Freo?

About 20 others.

[Rod_]

Does Birdy need a game in the firsts just in case he is needed for the finals?

McGlynn needs a game to see if he has recovered enough for finals.

Lloyd should return because he is good enough

I think that Rose should also get a full run.

So who to drop / rest

Goodsy (rest), Last game a final.., Smith and ? who ever has a bump or strain that needs 2 weeks off to freshen up.

Like Jones and BJ in the team, however doubt that both will remain for finals.

[Doctor]

Realistically, we don't have a history of resting players and we're at home, so not travelling. It seems highly unlikely that Smith will play but everyone else should be right, with the possible exception of Harry.

[Matt79]

There were some sore lads after the Saint's game and Etihad's hard surface is known for its toll on players. Smooch definitely out with the hammy. Reidy, Rampe and Harry looked very sore. Yes we have to win this game, but being at home...even if we rest a few we have no excuses not to get past the Suns.

Let's conserve a couple for the (hopeful) trip to Perth

[Hotpotato]

So by 5pm , they will know exactly whats going on to retain top four spot : any result will do / have to win by a certain margin / draw / can even lose by a certain margin / bruise free footy .
We seem to be in a reasonable place .

We just have to win.

Rest Goodes and deny him a last SCG game?
