[Ports1870]

Cochrane for DBJ
Boak for Mead
Lorenz for Jones or Evans (Lorenz to wing, Burgoyne back)

 

[PortAdelFC1997]

Hope Cochrane gets a full game.

 

[RossFC]

I'd go

Cochrane, Boak, Lorenz in for DBJ, Mead, Jones.

Richards sub.

mead is named on field, he not getting dropped unfortuantley, literally such a shit player.

Anyone think Soldo could play? Hawthorn have added Reeves to their squad. Don't think I would fancy Ollie rucking against him.

Just jumping in here.

Reeves probably travelling but doubt he will play unless Meek injured as he cant play forward.

Reeves pure back up only

 

[AflNerd22]

Only change boak for dbj lol

 

[all seeing eye]

Evans very lucky. Note however he was one of the best players in Prelim..

 

[PortAdelFC1997]

Evans very lucky. Note however he was one of the best players in Prelim..

Still a chance he won't be in the final 22.

 

[AlbertPower]

There's no way Lorenz plays. I watched magoos. Not sure what that's about.
Not enough changes for me. Jezza must be injured. Need him & Visintini.
I'm changing my tip.

Cheers for the heads up

He was outstanding in every game last year cannot believe his decline

Sure struggling going from being the icing on the cake to being part of the cake without Houston?

 

[ctpower]

would you look at trying Dylan williams in forward line. He’s a good pair of hands and a great kick and decision maker.

Try something...

 

[Rash]

Mead is the new McEntee.

The loss of Houston is enormous Logan Evans was playing SANFL reserves 18 months ago not sure what they expected.

Could just use Esava, Aliir, Lord who have played as backup rucks before instead of 187cm Wines

All of them played last week. None of them rucked.

He’s been down so far this season and maybe that’s second year blues.
I still think he’ll be a great player for us and was one of the shinning lights last year.

 

[RossFC]

Mead is the new McEntee.

Mead is at least a good SANFL player.

 

[Shaucob_Burjan]

Mead is at least a good SANFL player.

Why does McEntee play midfielder instead of forward in SANFL?

He's good enough to back in I reckon. You don't play as consistently well as he did in his first season without some serious quality. Confidence is down a bit but he's the type who you can expect to lift. I think he's playing with a bit too much pressure on himself to step into Houston's shoes.
