Waterman -> JWilliams
Gross -> Hall
Cole(if inj) -> Allan
Dewar(if inj) -> Davis
Flynn -> Johnston

Def: Edwards, Brock, Ginbey, Allan, Duggan, Maric, Baker
Mid: Hewett, Reid, Graham, Hough, Hall, Hunt, Hutchinson
Ruck: BWilliams, JWilliams
Fwd: Allen, Long, Ryan, Kelly, Davis, Brockman
Sub: Johnston

An extra midfielder than usual in this lineup, but a little extra forward time for harley/hewett/graham wont hurt.
1 less tall, if we have issues with height up forward then Harley/Hutchinson can sit forward a bit more as a marking target with Davis going up on a wing to cover Hutchinson
 
Shanahan for Snake (bonus he can be swung back if required).
Champion for Long/Dewar (been tearing it up in the WAFL).
Hall for Gross (needs a few WAFL games to start working on his tank).

That should be it.
They will likely bring in Jilliams for Snake but i'd like to see what Shanahan can do while we have a bit of a free hit against Geelong.

I'm tempering my expectations of Gross after that game.
Not because I don't think he'll make it, but that we need to patient with him since he'll take time to develop.
Adelaide are a mature football team, well physically developed and pushing for top 4, Gross will get man handled by those bigger bodies until he gets a preseason or 3 under his belt, he will be a very good footballer, just not yet.

Yep, exactly, a couple of times in past games he looked like a kid being ragdolled by a rottweiler..
 
Can see Gross going out, never a good sign to be the one coming off for the sub.
Would like to see Hall come in but missing a couple of weeks of footy could hurt him so he may need a full WAFL game.
So, would like to see Greggo, Shanahan and Ballan come in.
Poor Waterman, that just sucks big time. Gross a full game in WAFL and can bring Dee-wah back there with him.
Not sure on other injuries or what happens with Baker but Gross could still hold his spot pending this and/or Davis come in.

This is where the club should be releasing clips of Harley being shoved into the ground. I swear it happens multiple times a week.
Jordan Dawson did it on the weekend.

Not in the back of the head like Baker (not a fan of that) but regardless he gave Harley afters when he was on the ground.
