GREATER Western Sydney will settle on a ruck combination of Shane Mumford and Matt Flynn for its clash with Brisbane rather than rotating the role between the big men. Mumford and Flynn will pair up against the Lions on Saturday night, just as they did for the first time when the Giants took on West Coast and its star ruckman Nic Naitanui last weekend. The combination of youth and experience worked well against the Eagles and helped to limit the impact of Naitanui, as the Giants won the stoppage clearances 28 to 21. Flynn was also able to push forward and kick two goals in the 16-point win.

The Giants are now confident the duo can have a similar influence against the Lions and their rucks Oscar McInerney and Joe Daniher. "What we did like on the weekend is that combination of Mumford and Flynn," GWS coach Leon Cameron told reporters on Thursday.
