Only heard a snippet on SEN re: selection from Bevo's presser today, though I did hear that M Boyd is fit but not guaranteed inclusion as Biggs came back well and 'we like what Bailey Williams is doing'

The tin foil hatter in me thinks that this was the plan all along.

Thinking they'll struggle to fit Honeychurch in but gee he deserves another chance. Small forward is an area we're not blessed in either.

I'd select..

In: Honeychurch, Roberts
Out: Murphy, English

I suspect it might be (and would be comfortable with)

In: McLean, Roberts
Out: Murphy, English

Re: Match Committee - Round 12, 2017 vs Sydney Swans

My guess trying to decode Bevo's comments...

In: Libba, Cloke, M.Boyd
Out: Bob, English, Williams


I think we will go with a more senior, harden side at the SCG v Swans.

I already know this is wrong because it always is. Bevo never seems to pick a team that anybody expects.

Franklin, Tippet and Reid are tall so I think we need to go in with an another tall defender. So Cordy or Roberts could be called upon. We need the ball to hit the ground in their forward line. We can't afford them too many f50 marks because SCG 50M line is only really about 43m if you ask me.

McLean must be s shoe in for a call up from his VFL form. Sydney have plenty of mids that can cut you up if we aren't on guard. I'd love Libba for that reason but magic has earned his spot back more than Libba from all reports.

Out
Murphy, English.

In
McLean, Roberts

If we want to stretch their defence with a bit more height I'd be inclined to bring in Cloke at the expense of probably Suckling or maybe Williams.

Outs: English (unlucky), Murphy (inj)

Ins: Libba (head to head with Kennedy, Cloke (adds flexibility for Roughie to drop back or run around the place on Tippett, keeping forward structure)

McLean & Honey have claims for promotion, but competition is bloody fierce.

Heaviest rain here (Sydney) today since February, and will continue a bit lighter for the next few days.

Does that affect your ins and outs?

Nup gotta pick best available to beat the Swans. Few showers forecast so it may be fine and we go in too short...

Mark Stevens twitter

No sign of two Toms, Boyd and Liberatore, at Melb Airport ... Toby McLean and Matty Boyd in travelling party ...

Will be disappointed if Tom Boyd is out due to injury, we finally just got he and Roughead back together.
