If we have 3 players coming back in to the side this week who are the ones most likely to make way,?

The only one i can say for sure would be young Brent Reilly after that it gets a bit harder as Crowal, Shir, Ladhams & Gallagher all had good games last week.
 
have to agree, reilly, mattner & nelson. bad luck to all three because there form has been good but when the big guns come back unfortunately someone has to step aside.

Hopefully they won't drop Gallagher because I think that his form for the rest of the year may go a long way to determining who we are willing to let go at the end of the year.

If Gallagher can prove that he is good enough to step up to the next level, the Crows may be more willing to let go someone like Johnson or even Goodwin.

Reilly's got plenty of time and now that he's had a taste he can go back to the SANFL and continue to develop.

Unfortunately, Crowell hasn't got and never will have enough pace for his size to make it . I've always liked the look of him but he can be made to look slow.
 
Will 3 changes be needed? McLeod & Stenglein will be back, but I doubt Johnson will be ready as they are likely to be cautious with his injury. Reilly will return to Sturt after having a taste of AFL action & the other likely out will be either Mattner or Nelson. However, I would drop both & bring in Beinke now that he had a few games with the Magpies as we need another forward option (also it would give us the flexibility of sending Stevens back if Bandy gets out of control). Crowell will get another chance after he save himself with his blanketing of Milne, but I'm far from convinced he is a long-term prospect. If I was picking the team, it would be:

B: Hart, Smart, Bassett
HB: Bickley, McGregor, Edwards
C: Bode, Stenglein, Gallagher
HF: Ladhams, Stevens, Riccuito
F: Beinke, Burton, Johncock
Foll: Clarke, Goodwin, McLeod
Inter: Biglands, Doughty, Shir, Crowell
Emerg: Mattner, Nelson, Henschell
In: McLeod, Stenglein, Beinke
Out: Reilly, Mattner, Nelson

Apparently Crowell is in the top 5 quickest at the club, so this is obviously bad news for the rest of the squad!
 
Well I'll be buggered. You've got to admit though that Crowell does look slow. I'll pay a bit more attention next time.

Are you serious???? - Crowell is one of the crows fastest players - the clubs own sprint stats show this.

He shut down davis after after john**** was benched , then played on a small quicker player for st kilda and kept him to nothing

should have read on - dogs is on the mark
