    We have Zaine. So… JUH needs to go back to the vfl. Zaine is good for at least 6 touches on the weekend. Maybe -2 on frees.

    Zaine frustrates me but I don't think he deserves the kicking he gets on here sometimes. He is playing a clear role as 3rd tall/2nd ruck, and it is a role that Jamarra could not manage. He knows the zone, he holds his position and he creates a contest. He is not perfect, but he deserves his current spot in the team while we wait for English and Bruce to return.

    JUH is competing for a position with Khamis, and I am comfortable that Buku is getting picked ahead of him at the moment.

    Agree Cordy is ok by me. Don't get the hate. He's limited but he truly busts his arse for the side and puts his body on the line every time he has to and has that bit of mongrel we lack.

    Surprised TOB is back after only one week off? Must have been conservative last week. Like the look of the backline I think it can become an area of strength.

    Usually, but he's been off his food a bit this year from my mind's eye.
    Nobody's looking for a puppeteer in today's wintry economic climate.

    Do we even have a forwardline? Naughton is a star, but other than it’s paper thin. Once again we will need our mids to hit the scoreboard.

    I am a fan of all players that wear the red white and blue. Some are better than others but that's life. I like them all.

    4 goals or 9 goals, seriously is a win for us either way.

    If he kicks a couple and helps Naughton, then job done

    We don't have any forwards except Jamarra, Weightman, Bruce and Bedendo and none of them are playing. We just fill forward positions with versatile players or mids and one superstar who hits the scoreboard through a frenetic ground game or a screamer.

    Like we have no natural leading forwards playing at all.
