I'm not a Mattner fan, but I'm not upset with his inclusion given that Welsh replaces Stevens, and Mattner is in the side to take the place of Burns.
Given Burn's poor efforts last week in what is likely to be his last game in the tri-colours, then we're definitely no worse off. At least Mattner will go in fearlessly for the footy and is a terrific tackler.
Could it just be possible that Mattner might be in the side to have a stint on a wing with Burton going to FF at some stage of the game??
As for the interchange, if we wanted a defender then surely that could have been Smart, Stenglein if it was a mid-fielder, and Schuback if it was a forward.
Maybe he's there for a genuine reason.
