    Close up the leading space, simples!

      If Reg does play, they'll need him for when Lobb goes forward, unless we assign Sinclair to follow him.

        The problem I have with Reg playing seniors is the dilemma it poses if, by some miracle, we make the GF and play Richmond. It would be hard to drop Reg for a GF, but he really shouldn't play against Richmond.

          Let's cross that hurdle when the miracle transpires :-)

            I doubt the Reg vs Richmond GF topic is coming up at the selection table .....

                What's the Reg and Tigers connection?

                  No Richmond match up for him

                    Thats fair comment. Though we are running out of experienced backs so even a slow Reg may be more useful than you'd think - kinda like the stability Macca brings to that end of the ground. Having been away for a few weeks it's amazing to watch the last two replays and see how much more solid we are with Macca and Dan in the team (though I haven't finished the Dees replay yet). Reg may be a bit like Hodge at the end of his career - not quick but smart.

                    I watched the 2012 GF on a long flight yesterday and was wondering if we'd be able to play Marty and Reg together in 2018. I suspect not.

                      Defensive forward ala Teddy v Cats?
                      Just make him go with Rance the whole game. Rance is only good when allowed to roam wherever he wants.

                        That would be an excellent match up. Although doesn’t diving Alex normally go to Buddy?

                            Ticketed says standing room only. But they may be holding giants member seats to book (GA members can't just rock up) and releasing them if not sold out later.

                                Can't rely on getting one of those half a dozen tickets!
                                Those who have the greatest power to hurt us are those we love.
