Re: Match Committee - Round 12 vs Brisbane Lions

Maybe not based on reports, but I think his case is a little different. Obviously battled injuries up until this point but has had a better run at it this season. We need to see if he can play, his contract is up at year's end IIRC and although the trio of Dale/Webb/McLean are encouraging I'd like to see us put some faith in Josh who - by style - could help us in an area we need it with Libba out/Jong out of form.

Agree with this, we fed games into Cordy to figure out whether he could cut it so it's probably time we did the same with Josh and someone like Redpath to a lesser extent. I'm not sure he's good enough but is one of the few inside mids currently fit and playing

Cordy was at least BOG in the VFL before he came in

Agreed re. Jong. Where is Honeychurch at?
It's a very young bench.

Yes it is quite young. What do you think will be the key match ups for us in this one?

I'd like to see Prudden get a couple of games in the seniors. He's finally getting some continuity in his footy and he has done a lot of the training with senior squad over the last few years so he's up to date with all the game plans and set plays. He's got a fairly mature body after 3(?) preseasons.

There's lots of reasons to give him a run.

I think Josh is next cab of the rank . Big bodied mid

How serious is the Crameri injury ?
Jong out is no surprise

Watched Bevo's presser from earlier today. Said it was a rolled ankle on Wednesday and he could have been right by Sunday (if we played then) but it happened too late in the week to take the chance.
