I don't see how he can after missing a fair chunk of the pre-season and having only one game leading into tomorrow night.
I'd think a 50/50 split with Boyd, resting forward. Cloke to play up the ground and stay the hell out of the ruck.

He has had a couple of games at least including the VFL.

Bit top heavy for me , but in bevo we trust

I think so to but we have added two of the better performed players from the VFL. Last week I thought we were a but light on for midfield rotations so dropping McLean for Campbell doesn't help that either although McLean wasn't impressive last week.

We have a lot of mid sized defenders in Wood, Murphy, Biggs, Suckling and maybe even Matthew Boyd so I think there might be a need to push a couple of them in midfield roles from time to time.

If we can contain Franklin we will go a long way towards a good win against a quality side.

I've been fantasising all pre-season of FF Tom Boyd, CHF Trav Cloke, Crammers & Stringer doing their thing and rotating seriously talented players through the forwardline in Bonts, Picken, Daniel, Dahl, Bob, JJ, Hunter etc.

Now to see if the fantasy lives up the hype in mind.

Hey that's my fantasy!

Could include JJ in that list.. Was interetsing to watch how these guys were used last week, especially pushing JJ, Murf & Boyd onto a wing & HF.. Boyd didn't look all that comfortable in these roles so it will be interesting to see how our line-up looks moving forward.

I think M.Boyd's days in the midfield are probably beyond him now. Murphy could easily spend a lot of time up forward for us tonight.

^^

Dunkley is taller than Crameri.

Don't mind the changes, will be interesting to see how we go with a line-up that is probably the tallest selected in Bevo's tenure... The balance isn't quite right in my mind... so we wait and see.

Josh has grown a bit!

Had a look and they are both listed at 190cm.

Aliir Aliir may be a late change in - to combat our height

Yep, movement for sure.
