[grumbleguts]

I saw the scott brothers at a thing once. I said to one of them "Are you excited to be here?" He said "I'm beside myself."

 

[JoeHawk]

Worpel and Lewis named in squad. Wow

Burton and Cousins for me

 

[Jaeger]

Burton and Worpel for me

 

[burger09]

Worpel and Lewis named in squad. Wow

Think they were named last week?

 

[Hodginator]

Hope Burton plays a blinder.

 

[Argy]

No Schoey. Has he been named for Box Hill or is he still injured?

 

[Leather Poisoning]

Of those, please Burton + anyone other than Langford.

I know that's negative, but I reckon he's had enough chances. Played basically a full season last year (20 games) and was really quite underwhelming in most.

I get the defensive forward thing and the effort is great but there's no point marking it if you kick so many more behinds than points.

 

[Gralin]

No Schoey. Has he been named for Box Hill or is he still injured?

Schoey named for Box Hill

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Burton and Worpel looking the likely inclusions.

Worpel averages quite a few tackles and hits the scoreboard. Reckon he gets his chance.

 

[MasterSamurai]

Clarko wants pressure and speed in the forward half, so Worpel may be a good choice, his run down tackling is quite good and doesn't mind a snag.

 

[TheFourPillars]

Looking at that i'm coming around to a Worpel debut but they would have said something about it if it was
So more likely Langers or Cousins(i would be surprised if cousins is named)

Hope you're not bagging a Premiership hero of this club!

 

[KOLOKOTRONIS]

Whilst I don’t think Langford is up to it, he could play poppy’s role given his ferocious attack on the footy and pressure acts. Before being shot down, I feel this is the only position he is good for at this stage (nowhere else). Furthermore, I acknowledge he cannot kick...lol

[Leather Poisoning]

Well, I'm really not bagging him, just saying he's had enough chances to recapture his premiership form and still seems miles off it.

 

[mikeder]

Schoey named for Box Hill

When is Box Hill playing Gralin?

 

[Numtums]

Well, I'm really not bagging him, just saying he's had enough chances to recapture his premiership form and still seems miles off it.

Duryea?

Mirra wasn’t declared as a debutant until final 22 was named on Friday last week.

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

TFP isn’t necessarily talking about ‘publicly’.

It’s often noticeable at training who’s been selected for their debut.

 

[Mercy Seat]

Cousins would be filthy if Worpel gets the nod ahead of him. He's been killing it in the VFL and deserves his chance.

That all said Burto and Langford seem the most likely.

 

[Manila_Hawk]

As reported by others, hawthornfc.com.au usually come up with some article on the upcoming debutante player.

I'm tipping Burton and Langford FWIW.

 

[Wizzmania]

Burton is a lock.
Langford, Cuz or Worps?
Or does Brand take Big Bad Benny Brown, and Chip play forward. He has pace.
Weighing it all up confuses the Wizz, but he is leaning towards a Langford selection.

Fair enough.

One can hope though that Clarkson doesn’t make the same mistake he made 2 weeks ago.
