Miguel Sanchez
(Unique injury) TBC
From the presser: Jack Williams coming in for Barnett, Johnston will travel. Gaff and Barnett will play WAFL.
Re Barnett: gave him a taste of it, probably got 10-15 games of experience in 60 minutes. His time will come later when he gets an extended run, don’t like having youngsters coming in and out but thinks it’s a bit different for young rucks.
Re Jilliams: has a bit more forward craft than Barnett/Bailey and will offer a bit more support to Darling. Will also chop out in the ruck, so sounds like Jamo will stay back for the game.
Re Jamo: has only been a key back for about five weeks, thinks he’s grown in the role, they like playing a third tall to help out Barrass and Gov.
