    Bevo made a point of saying that we brought up the whole squad and that all the boys who trained Saturday, ergo didn't play Sunday are good to go and we give everyone a shot.

    So in Trengove?

    Chose to attack the player rather than the ball. Actually went past the ball to bump the player. High contact, high impact?

    Guilty as charged your Honour.
    But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

    Think Schache would be an obvious exclusion - which normally means he'll play - but if he does get dropped, I can see him getting Trengove'd

    Maybe we just need to look at one tall (Bruce) for now, and look at pace in our F50 (Weightman / Cavarra) as a priority.

    Crozier plays (of course) but I'm not sure it'll be for Butler straight off.

    Not looking forward to Friday night.

    It's clear our forwards are still terrible at the long ball, we made poor decisions going forward and that was our problem.
    However still you expect more from Schache in that he barely touched it and gave no physical contest whatsoever.

    i would bring Lewis Young in for him, he gives us an option at both ends if needed. Weightman or Cavarra for Richards.

    I like what Richards does right, and i know Bevo loves him but he just needs to get more of it. He has averaged around the 12.5 disposals a game for 3 years with little change at all. Should be doing more by now.

    Crozier much needed ball user down back, has to come back in. Butler will be a good player soon but got a bit nervous at times and played safe. Needed him to take the game on more like Crozier would of and it might of made a difference. Can't fault him for just his second game though.

    So in Trengove?
    Do they have many tall forwards? There's McKernan and who... Hooker swings forward?

    I'm more worried about their small forwards than their talls TBH. And with Naughton out and if Lewie Young isn't putting his hand up, we could gamble on swinging Cordy forward as he's covers the ground and at least he competes. Schache is either injured, or horribly out of form and will surely be an out.

    I like Butler but I'm not sure he's ready.
    If we're desperate for another smaller defender who can kick, why not just play Ed Richards there which is where he's played his best football anyway? It won't be an issue this week with Crozier back, and Richards was pretty poor last game anyway.

    I'd bring in Trengove and swing Cordy forward, Trengove can give chop outs in the ruck and Cordy can go back during those periods. Bevo won't do that, so I'll go with:

    Out: Schache, Butler, Richards
    In: Crozier, Dickson, Cavarra

    re: bit in bold - it's this where you fear he'll lose the coaches trust. He's too inconsistent in this area.

    Really like what he does well, but....
