With Read missing it would appear we only have a few players applying any pressure to the borderline players in the seniors. I'd like to see a few changes this week but I can't see where they're coming from. Only 9 MFC listed players played apparently, so the pool is small.
Sylvia will be back. Other candidates would be P.Johnson, C.Johnson, Williams, & Hunter. Bate & Dunn will get their chance soon but I don't think it'll be this week.
Hunter or Williams playing would be like playing with 21 players IMO.
P.Johnson is an interesting one, seems to be getting better by the week as a ruckman. I will watch the Sandy game on TV this week to see this progess for myself. Apparently he's getting better with marking, but who knows how much of that is bull****. If he develops the marking part of his game he could be a very valuable player in the future, and if we want a backup ruckman this week I would consider giving him a game.
Sylvia is a certaintly.
C.Johnson will get games this year, but perhaps not yet.
So for changes.
IN: Sylvia, Jamar(if fit)/P.Johnson (if Jamar not fit), Whelan(if fit)
OUT: Godfrey, Rigoni, Armstrong (if Whelan is fit)
Love the way Godfrey goes about it but bottom line is that he can't play football for ****.
Rigoni is a decent bench player but after a couple of poor games he needs time at Sandy.
Arma did just enough to get another go if Whelan is not fit.
