Seems someone at HQ is a bit jumpy. I got the notification but no teams as yet.

I would've gone Fox in Clarke's place instead of Rowbottom, and probably would've given Menzel another week to prove himself, but I like all three changes. Keeping players accountable and finding like-for-like replacements is basic but smart selection.

Bit of a surprise. Youthful team.
Surprised about Sinclair.
Happy about Menzel.
Hope Mcartin has a blinder.
There is an argument that Rowbottom should stay in the NEAFL this year, but I can’t help but feel excited about this kid. Would love him to cement a spot.

An in form Ronke is massive. Hoping he has rediscovered his mojo
Menzel stiffer than an 18 year old virgin at a brothel.
He has been pretty good with his field kicking and link up play

Tank letting him down. Don't want to overdo it too early. Give him a bit if breather & build up some match fitness in the NEAFL.
I like it.

I don’t think it’s as much as a surprise as you think B52, Suns are full of nothing but youth. Menzel would be run off his feet.
Good opportunity for some players who are hungry to impress to play.
Rose keeps his spot. Good on him!

I guess there's nobody worth tagging?
Good to see Rowbottom get another game. I know he's kicking goals in the NEAFL but it'd be great to see him in the middle half the time swapping out with Rose.
Or maybe they're going to try Ronke as a tagger for this game. Not the world's best disposal himself though.
Nobody who makes it to AFL level is a "dud".

Eerily similar profiles going into this game. We should have too much talent on the park for the Suns and a better system, but this game should make for an interesting glimpse into the future. Also, for anyone who bought into the 'superdraft' hype last year, this week's the chance to see three of the four highly-touted key position players from that draft on show, with Blakey, King and Lukosius all named.

4 goals from Ronke, 5 from Papley. Anything else and I'll be disappointed

Ta for that. If JPK is a late withdrawal, a possibility as he seemed to be playing hurt last week, I suspect we would be fielding our least experienced team in a mid year match for many years.
