Preview Hawks vs Cats - Changes and discussion

[Jaeger]

Actually the it was the other way around, Taylor was only going to miss one week, after all it was just a cut on his foot, and ditto Ling with back soreness. Ottens was more uncertain given he has been out for over two months. I thought West might get another game given how good he was on Sunday, but obviously we've decided to keep as much run in the side as we can.

Your ins are good too, should be a cracking game.

Yes I thought West would keep his spot to allow Ottens to play at full forward all day.

He probably still will spend about 65% up forward.

 

[Hawkers Hero]

In: Brown, Gibson

Out: Mitchell (inj), Muston

Emergencies: Muston, Lisle, Savage

Is that official??

Where does Gibson fit in with those outs? You would think Brown takes Muston's spot in the forward half but who from the back half moves up to replace Mitch? (assuming Gibson doesnt have the legs to play mid)

Correct. Blake played 70 % last week and when we were only playing one ruckman (before Hawkins went down) he played up to 80 % most weeks, so Ottens will still be mainly a forward. Did that well the last time.

Our changes since round 2 (I think):
In: Podsiadly, Milburn, Varcoe, Stokes
Out: Mooney, Johnson, Hawkins, Motlop

Yours would be Skipper and Brown in I think? did I miss anyone?
