Changes v Footscray

[ant555]

Was at training today and saw Tayte look a little sore. Knights said they would make a decision on him tomorrow. also thought i heard the coaching staff say that Lonergan would miss for some reason. Hope i'm wrong. Other than that all looked good. Skippy & Bachar looked sharp.

Lonergan was wearing a compression bandage on his right calf. He did look to be running ok.
