Have sometimes wondered why the AFL only ever nominated a single player as sub.
You could have a selection of three to bring one on as required to cover the respective injury.
Obviously it’d impact vfl availability.
Shame the AFL appoints the umpires.

Depends if Murphy puts his hand up. Assuming no Murphy and no injuries. I'd go with 21 from the GF, plus Macrae, Sullivan, Reef, Noble, Johnson for the 26. Ryan, Allan, Kreuger and Bytel as the emergencies. If Murphy plays, I'd leave Frampton out of the 26.
I think we need to start playing closer to our strongest line up. We need to build chemistry and find replacements for Adam’s, McStay and Murphy.
Finn and the new breed of mids need to spend some time getting to know the rucks, and the running patterns for transition…we’ll struggle to get clearances if they don’t start working together. Would love to see Finn in the guts all day with rotations of Mitchell, Degoey and Crisp. Play the best rucks as well. If we get on top of them bring in Steene for a run.
Down back we need to give Dean some time with Moore and Howe.
Up forward my preference is to have Krueger as the second tall with Mihocek…if he can stay fit I think we are a better side.

Shoota?
I would go with the 21 remaining GF players as well. So no Murphy or Ginnivan. My extra 5 would be Shoota, Macrae, Reef, Johnson and Dean.
For round 0 providing no injuries I would go with one of:
Either Johnson or Reef
Either Dean or Frampton (although both could miss and Howe or Maynard play tall)
One of Macrae, Lipinski, WHE, Markov, McCreery will have to miss and another would have to be the sub.

I forgot Schultz. I'd be pretty similar, but I'm not convinced by Frampton and doubt Dean has done enough since his return, so I'd just go with Moore and Howe with Maynard as the aerial defence. We went 9 from 10 last year with only Moore, Murphy and Maynard so I wouldn't be worried about not having that 3rd bloke recognised as a tall.

Why wouldn’t we put Murphy in cotton wool for at least until mid-season? He can do all the non-physical training sessions, but give him every opportunity to recover and regain some confidence. I think Dean can step into his role.

I don't have an opinion either way.
Both Maynard and Howe would be giving away 5cm to Cadman and Hogan. It's not ideal. I'd rather Howe having a sweeper role and just put Dean in as the Presti-see-ball-smash-ball role. Great opportunity for him - even if somewhat terrifying, as the GWS forward line will be just as potent with their small forwards as their talls, as will their midfielders.

I think we’re likely to see Dean as well for another option if Murphy isn’t just sitting out pre-season matches as a precaution. I’d leave Noble out in that case because I don’t think there’s a spot for him unlike the others you named who could all be going head to head with each other for spots.

In that scenario how does that lessen his chances of picking up a career ending head knock? The only potential change it creates is denying us access to an MSD selection.
Why? There is nothing physically wrong with him. His problem is a fear of permanent repercussions from a potential knock. He either plays or he doesn't, and if it's the latter, then why keep him on the list and have him attend training to run and not much else? I'm quite OK with him sitting out the preseason matches but if he's on the sidelines round 1, then the club needs to explain why he is still taking up a spot. I don't like him going from the bravest guy on the list to what we are getting from him at the moment.
Yes, all Community Series games are live on Fox Footy and Kayo.

Sitting out the game will be Vice Captain Jeremy Howe and Club games record holder, Scott Pendlebury. Howe sustained a calf cork during training last week, while Pendlebury received a knock to the knee at training yesterday. Both players are set to be available for Opening Round.

Yeah the Murphy situation confuses me too at this point
Like…he’s not going to go the next 5-10 seasons without getting one more heard knock. So if it really is one more and he’s done, then you’d think he’d just either retire now or throw caution to the wind and play?
He’s going to suffer another head knock at some stage. That’s just inevitable. So either roll the dice with your health and play, or retire as a healthy premiership player.

I kind of felt that was gonna happen due to their age though. Also kind of suspected the coaching staff had HH and Ryan ahead of Allan at this point in time but Joe Richards? now thats a surprise lol
