[perrdan86]

Looks like it between Fergus and Ryan for the 2nd tall/ish fwd spot.

 

[naysayer]

You can mount a case for everyone on that extended bench except probably Fergus.

I'll take Scrimshaw, Ryan, Macdonald and Mackenzie with Bramble as the sub.

 

[Mopar Jason]

What do you make of Green and Ryan being preferred to Kosi for this game?

 

[Mitchell Madness]

You can mount a case for everyone on that extended bench except probably Fergus.

At this stage, Fergus is the only player to lead.

 

[Mitchell Madness]

What do you make of Green and Ryan being preferred to Kosi for this game?

Kosi's papers are stamped.
Probably ends up at the roos next yr

Every week Mitch says we struggle to score. If you kick 4 and you're not in the seniors the next week it's a bad sign.

 

[Mopar Jason]

Kosi's papers are stamped.
Probably ends up at the roos next yr

I came to the same conclusion it looks ominous for Kosi

 

[Nick the Pig]

Amon a big loss. We know what Bramble can do so I'd be inclined to give Weddle a run playing wing. Leave out Bramble.

I think we have better structure when Blanck plays so he is in from the named bench along with Scrimshaw. All of Frost, Scrim and Sicily can play tall or short if the Saints are a smaller forwardline.

We know what Greene can do so I'd instead play Ryan. We need to learn more about him in the games we have left.

CMac x 2 the other bench spots. Their class has to play each week

 

[Billyc]

Hopefully the ins are Ryan Mackenzie and Meek. Even with an extended bench and two forced outs, DGB’s omission was the most predictable one all year after his clean sheet.

 

[perrdan86]

They usually do the social media debut announcement before teams are released don't they? Would have thought they would've done one for Ryan if he was in?

The media announcement might come tomorrow when the teams are finalised

 

[Brishawk]

BRANDON RYAN IS IN


*The extended bench.

You reckon ryan chips it sideways like mcgrath?

 

[Dewnior]

Bench will be Scrimshaw, Blanck, Macdonald and Ryan (debut) with Frenchy as sub.

 

[TDS7]

You reckon ryan chips it sideways like mcgrath?

Crab rave video.

Use it wisely young one.

 

[SSSSSS]

Unfortunate to see Amon out. He's been a weapon for us since the bye.

[Judd2Sewell]

We traded in Stephens to play for Box Hill by the looks

He needs more strings to his bow to get into the senior side/midfield.

This. Let's flipping go Ryan!!!

 

[Dazza the Viking]

He needs more strings to his bow to get into the senior side/midfield.

So why did we trade him in

Are Kosi, Morrison and Stephens contracted for next season, if not there gonski

 

[TassieGrown]

Who does Finn put the clamps on this week? Steele for me

 

[GinniAndTonic]

Who does Finn put the clamps on this week? Steele for me

Sinclair 100% easily the saints most damaging player.

 

[Judd2Sewell]

Are Kosi, Morrison and Stephens contracted for next season, if not there gonski

I guess we were trying to make the best of a bad situation. It's not looking too promising for Stephens ATM. I also believe the resurgence of Worpel and the development of Nash probably changed things a little.

 

[perrdan86]

He needs more strings to his bow to get into the senior side/midfield.

Going by the coach reports, he has been going pretty well playing across half fwd and then through the mids.
