No Chance in Hell that the Bolt will be Sub. The Sole purpose of the Sub is to inject speed while everyone else is starting to tire.

What about if its persisting down? As is predicted...
Then Warnock will not play & will use the Bolt as backup ruck. Too important to our structure
Hasn't Mclean been SUB a cpl of times this year? He makes my nan look fast!
I would rather Warnock in Ruck whether it's raining or not he's a tap ruckman that actually finds our players. Kreuzer and Casboult are more grunt players that occasionally find the correct player. Would love to have Warnock as Ruck and Kreuzer as Roaming RR when he fit.

But plodders tend to do well on wet tracks. Saturday's predicted conditions are made for him
Casboult has been clunking marks & providing a contest up forward, Presence we have been lacking all year. Just needs to work on his skills & fitness base, but we have a keeper. Warnock provides nothing for us around the ground.
Yer but what I was saying was in reference to the SUB having speed injected. As I said before bloody hate the SUB rule.
Warnock has taken heaps of big marks around the ground on numerous times. Anyway who cares what we think its up to the match commitee just as long as we smash these bombers out of the 8!!!

Then I dont see how bringing on a tall forward late in the game will help.
If its pissing down and the club deside they dont want to play a tall forward (which I doubt) then drop him all together.

Casboult as the sub - surely you're extracting the urine. Surely he took more marks inside 50 last week then Kreuzer has all year.
Warnock hasn't played in four weeks and Kreuzer is a much better ruck than forward, we're really gonna need his grunt work in the midfield this week.
Do we watch the same games? Warnock struggles to get those arms above his head.
Keep him as back up for an injury the way we been going with injury this year he be on in first qtr
Kreuzer's tap work isn't great. He is more a RR type like Kouta played in his best years.

Recon we will look like this
B: O'Keeffe White Scotland
HB: Yarran Watson Gibbs
C: Simpson Bell Carrazzo
HF: Garlett Casboult Robinson
F: Betts Waite Walker
OB: Kreuzer Judd Murphy
IC: Armfield McLean Duigan
S: McInness (depending on their forward structure, if they are tall then O'Keeffe or Duigan to sub)
I wouldn't worry too much about Davies and Jetta, they are barely B graders as it is and we have often put too much emphasis on them in the past and made them look like good players. Yarran, O'Keeffe, Scotland, Gibbs, Simpson, Scotland if need be Carrazzo will all do the job just fine. Best we don't start bringing in b graders of our own to try and cover their b graders, just go with our best team and win the contest. If the players I mentioned can't handle Davies and Jetta then need to question their position in the team. Would love to see Bell monster Watson, would be one of few players in the league who could out muscle him and run with him and would be great education for Bell who already has a defensive mindset. Carrazzo is an ideal matchup for Stanton, can't handle a tag but carves up if not tagged and Carrazzo would out play him all over the field. I recon the much overrated Hurley would be a good matchup for Watson. Hurley is more of a body on body forward and not a real quick and smart leading forward, suites him. White is a better matchup for Cramerie who probably covers more ground. The big test for us is the rucks, Kreuzer will probably be up against Bellchambers and/or Ryder who are pretty decent opponents so he will have to play out of his skin. It may see us a little short up forward and maybe McInness having to play taller and Kreuzer to spend more time forward with Casboult relieving him more. Could work for or against us depending how well Kreuzer goes. This could be the most satisfying win of the season, so much to play for!

Warnock and Kreuzer must NEVER play together. Playing two ruckmen, if none can play forward, is football suicide. It only works with if one or both can play forward. If you want to go with this kind of structure, going by who is currently fit then You play Waite, Mitchell and Casboult. Play Mitchell and Waite as perminant forwards and rotate Kreuzer and Casboult in the ruck while resting Kreuzer on the bench and Casboult on the bench and a bit up forward.
