Not a lot of player ready by the looks of things.

Vs Bulldogs:
Out: Poholke
In: Knight

Would be tempted to rest Gallucci this week as well for Hampton coming off a 6-day break

VS Melbourne
Out: Otten, Gallucci and whoever shits the bed over the next 2 weeks/next person to do hammy
In: Hartigan, (hopefully) Milera and Sloane - If one doesn't come up - maybe Gibson

Vs Giants or Freo the week after:
Out: Greenwood
In: Brad Crouch


With a bit of luck we should have near our best team on the park soon. Some of the fill-ins have been good, but in general we are lacking; missing some of our stars.
 
Really depends on who is available.

Murphy for Polholke is probably the only player available from the sanfl.

We have Hartigan, Knight & Milera listed as being 1-2 weeks away. Hartigan needs to.come back via the sanfl given how long he has been out. Hopefully Milera & or Knight are ok to come back in as could do with both.

Greenwood should not be a pre meditated out. As much as he is being criticised for that last clearance, fact is without his last few minutes we lose by 3 goals. Was the one who stood up in the centre when we needed it and got us back to where we were and while with be benefit of watching from outside and replays etc you can say he made an error in that last play, he again was the one to get his hands on the ball

Brad Crouch?
 
Greenwood should not be a pre meditated out. As much as he is being criticised for that last clearance, fact is without his last few minutes we lose by 3 goals. Was the one who stood up in the centre when we needed it and got us back to where we were and while with be benefit of watching from outside and replays etc you can say he made an error in that last play, he again was the one to get his hands on the ball

He has been good, but has his flaws. Way I see it - when Brad Crouch is 100% ready to go and we have a healthy team - then one of our mids has to go. CEY and Greenwood the prime candidates. I choose Greenwood because although he gets a good number of clearances and does some really flash stuff - he doesn't get a super lot of it, his clearnaces are often inaffective hack-forwards kicks and he doesn't run very hard. Think CEY's bigger body is more benefical to our team and compliments the rest of our mids better. That being said, may not be bad to rest one of CEY, Greenwood, Douglas. Need to make sure these players burn out come the pointy end of the season. Will be a good problem to have anyway.
 
Hard to know who is going to come in. Gooch and Poholke looked well off it but what can we bring in ??

Milera - Automatic in if he's fit.

Wilson - Better kick and has the body size

ROB - Sauce will need a spell. Good game to bring him in.

Murphy - Looks a senior player.

Hartigan - Comes in if fit, Otten is 4th choice.

Reality is we aren't making 5 changes, particularly if everyone got through tonight fit. Even if it's just Milera for Poholke, Hartigan for Otten and Murphy for Gallucci we are a better side.

Mackay will stay in because our coaches go on the last few weeks, not the game tonight which is regular David. I'd be happy for Poholke to stay in, and play him as a midfielder that he is, but Wilson is ahead of him IMO
 
Hartigan - Otten
Milera - Mackay
Knight - Polholke

I have a feeling none will be ready to go and nothing on earth will make the Crows keep Mackay out for more than token SANFL time, but DEAR GOD do the first two need to go.
 
Oh and Knight if available comes into calculations.
