F H.Himmleberg J.Hogan I.Hill
FOLL: M.Flynn S.Coniglio J.Kelly
INTER: Green, XOH, Ward, Stone

Great looking side

With all the talk of focusing on team defence coming from the club I’d expect MDB to get a run. If so, whoever misses will be unlucky.

Highlight of a good side is who has been left out/unavailable. I think it is a very good sign for the club if we can move past Kennedy/De Boer/Lloyd as best 22 players:
Greene
Daniels
De Boer
Lloyd
Keefe
Kennedy
Buckley

plus young first rounders:
Callaghan
Alleer
Angwin

For me backline still looks a little slow with Davis, Perryman and Haynes all back there.

I'd move Whitfield back there for Perryman who goes to the bench. Callaghan onto a wing and XOH goes out (too much of a liability with his disposal - can't hit a target inside 50).

Personally I would not pick a side without D Lloyd in there - particularly with Toby out early. He's good for 1.5 goals a game and is the most accurate finisher in the sport! More runs on the board compared to Stone at this point (who I really rate).

Hi Folks,
I read somewhere that Finn Callaghan has/had an injury. What is his status, please?
Cheers.

He had a foot injury in the pre-season, but he played our first practice match. He didn't play in our AAMI community series match vs Collingwood, but that wasn't because of injury.

Over his injury

Well not directly because of injury, I believe they said they were still ramping up his fitness base because of the foot injury setting him back a bit
