Marty had a poor game for him, but he's been very good overall this year.

Not sure he deserves to be dropped; Buckley also has been reasonably good over the year, gets a lot of the ball, but let's himself down with the odd really bad brain fade or lazy looking shocking disposal.

Taz should be available you'd think, whereas Pendles is probably 50-50.

Elliott has a sensational last qtr and would be unlucky to get dropped, if Sinclair is available again.

Marley Williams impresses with his composure under pressure, but may be one who makes way and I guess Young, who does better almost in the AFL than the VFL, may also have to make way, unless they choose to simply rotate their team and rest some others here and there.

Not sure if Freo had any new injuries or will get anyone back - no Sandilands of course, so it may even be that Jolly is rested and Wood given a run to keep him up to pace as reserve first ruck..
 
From their board, the consensus for changes seems to be

Duffield in for Nick Suban
Dawson if fit, for Silvagni
Ballantyne in for Chrichton
Stephen Hill in for Pitt

Also some doubt over Broughton and Mayne ( injury concerns)

Give Jolly a rest, will be bruised and battered after taking on Cox/NicNat

Wood vs Griffin will give Wood a chance to test himself against a ruckman who is at a similar level, not a GC kid.

In: Sinclair, Tarrant, Wood (Pendles if fit, doubt it)
Out: Young, Buckley, Jolly (Williams if Pendles comes up)

Pendles will be nursed for the Blues

Disagree. Let him roll with it.Jolly seems a player that benefits from the responsibility and continuity. Considering Buckleys comments about his body I see no reason to rest him.
 
Spoke to pendles, Reidy and Witts at the basketball today, Pendles said he wants to play, although whether that happens is another thing. The club wants to be certain he's110%. Reidy pulled up better than he thought yesterday, and is happy with his game. Witts was just rested from VFL duties this week, as part of team balance.

IN: Tarrant, Sinclair
OUT: Clarke (inj) Young.

Seeds and Paine are surely close to a recall too. Good thing, top of the table with kids still knocking on the door!

EDIT: had to change my wording on pendles, it didn't make much sense.
