Hmm, possibly three travelling emergencies then (Phillips, Cutler, Ambrose) with Durham staying in Vic to play VFL? Or maybe Phillips stays home and Ambrose is the travelling emergency with Cutler?

Makes sense to get a VFL game into Reid given he hasnt played for a while. Travelling emergencies aren't much chance of playing and Reid would never be the sub.
Oh yeah, agreed 100%.
It's the forward line we ran from Anzac Day to the GWS game, where Stringer did his string. Jones brings more forward pressure than the typical KPF so it goes okay.

I cannot recall if it was the only time this season, but they all played anzac day.

We did it from round 3 to round 8, but the first three of those Wright was solo ruck, then the second set of three Stringer was spending more time in the middle (and then got injured).

Im hoping to see Stringer at most centre bounces. Dont think he's done many since returning from injury but 2 games back and a week off he should be primed
Agree with this - he’s such a beast in the middle when he’s on - I think him and Langers will rotate through there with the team to line up like;-
Ridley Zerk Laverde
Heppell Stewart Hind
Ham Langford Cox
Perkins Jones Smith
Stringer Hooker Tippa
Draper Parish Merrett
Redman Guelfi Cahill 2MP
It’s probably our strongest line up for the year - and we still have Francis, Snelling and Shiel to come back in over the next few weeks…

Midfield is getting very thin. Snelling and McGrath do a lot of the blue collar work in there so will have to be a group effort to cover them

Im legitimately concerned about our midfield rotation going into tomorrow.
When we played them last time, we had Shiel, Caldwell and McGrath in the team. A midfield of Mitchell, O'Meara, Shiels, Wingard and Burgoyne is nothing to sneeze at. Newcombe as well looks impressive.
Zerrett and Parish are going to need to have monster games, and otherwise hopefully we can piecemeal an effective midfield rotation using Langford, Smith, Perkins, and guys like Ham and Guelfi.

I feel having Duke himself in the side can only be an advantage..
Nah, should be fine. Just need Parish to have 60 touches.

Parish and Langford are performing at a higher standard than they were game 1. Stringer also didn’t play and makes a big difference to our centre bounces. I think it’s our weakest section of the ground at the moment, but I don’t think it’s that much worse than we were in Round 1.
Fair enough. No way we play Hooker forward AND Draper + 2MP + Phillips. .... actually I should check the sides now emergencies will have been changed.
At least our backline and forward line's have had a steady run and built some real synergy since way back in round 1. We've got tons of blokes that are much better than they were in round 1. Midfield depth will be an issue for some weeks but we've certainly made gains in other areas.

You've done well there. I couldn't name five of their players these days.

Any time Sydney went fast last week they cut Hawthoen to pieces.
Like the team we have this week. Selectors have nailed it this year, mostly rewarding performance and backing the kids in.
Ambrose being dropped a good example.
Hopefully a good win today. Swans were flatter than a heart monitor at a cemetery last week.

Yep agree with this. Hawks beat the Swans at their own game last week - we have the pace to burn the Hawks and atone for the game that got away round 1. Stringer, Parish, Merrett, Langford, Tippa, Smith and Ham our mid rotations and that’s decent enough to match it with the Hawks
