Sewell will be given Farmer imo.
Clarke - Bell.
Pav - ?? If they want to play Croad forward obviously, it aint going to be him. Can't say the idea of Smith going to him appeals though Smith has 'lifted' to play on players he's been outsized on before. Just so long as it isn't Jacobs who's asked to do it. Roughead is always a chance to be pushed back as well if things go pear-shaped.
This might sound scary and/or stupid but I want DJ on McPharlin. Yea, he's got it all over him for pace, athletic ability, one thing DJ has all over McPharlin, footy nous. Reckon he's adept enough at knowing 'space' that he can negate Mcpharlin and offer some generalship from the back half.
Forwards? Williams has got to be F/F, let Roughead lead into the top of the square from a pocket or something but OUT of the square, let Willo be the main target to go to. Buddy up at half-forward, Boyle or Croad as the CHF.
On ball should be pretty much straight forward, Crawford and Mitchell a Carr each. Bateman - Headland head to head etc. Can't see to many surprises being sprung from either side.
Really feel unsure going in, hopeful we can keep up the recent decent winning form but lets face it, there isn't much to base that faith on.
See what happens Sunday I suppose.
