This is how I reckon the teams will line up tomorrow night.
Lynch to play deep forward and to only leave 50 when the ball is in our defensive half. Higgins Butler and Rioli to play up forward to create havoc when the ball hits the ground and to also minimise the ability for Simpson Newman and Garlett to provide rebound out of D50.
Cotchin and Cripps to go head to head, while Curnow tries to tag Prestia again. I reckon we sit McIntosh on Murphy on the wing to limit his impact linking up through the middle.
In our back half Rance goes to Charlie Curnow, Astbury to take McKay and Broad to run with McGovern. I reckon Gibbons tries to sit on Houli to limit his impact and we'll use Vlastuin to try and use Walshs inexperience to create the +1 as Walsh pushes up the ground. Grimes to give Fasolo nightmares.
Balta to split time between the ruck forward and bench depending on how much Lynch blows up in his first game in over 6 months. Graham to be plan B if Cripps becomes a problem. Weller to go forward when Dusty pushes up into the middle while Short is used as the defensive rotation.
