Apparently Gowers will likely be done for breaking the players rules on socialising

Again? Or is this back with the Hunter debacle? If he's done it again just cut ties now, it's idiotic.

AFL.com's take:

Lewis Young and Josh Schache will be in line to replace gun forward Aaron Naughton (ankle syndesmosis) who is set to miss up to two months. Cody Weightman could make his debut with Sam Lloyd (broken collarbone) sidelined for at least a month. Tory Dickson could be in the mix, while Easton Wood and Lin Jong will be pushing to get their spots back too.
Verdict: Lewis Young, Cody Weightman, Easton Wood and Lin Jong replace Aaron Naughton, Sam Lloyd, Ed Richards and Louis Butler. - Jourdan Canil

I would be surprised if we made 4 changes and Ed Richards was among them. But then I really shouldn't be surprised by anything the match committee do.

So Tarrant snd Zebel are both out. If we get the job done on Higgins we will be in fir a really good night.

Where has it been reported that Tarrant is out? He is listed as a test (as are Ziebell and Cunnington).

Would think Tarrant will play he got a knock to the ribs but came back on. Zeibell is less likely than likely to play I would have thought. He was on the bench late in the game with ice on his hammy.

Agreed it would be super weird if Richards is fit and is omitted.

Why would we drop Richards? He has been great this year.

Well it would be a bad look wouldn't it. Remember he didn't get sanctioned seriously over the Hunter affair, and it was probably for good reason in lieu of the situation that arrived at his door step.

Let's wait it out and see what the actual breach was. It could be as simple as a family member visiting his house, a cleaner coming over when they shouldn't have.

Fascinated to see how Schache slots back in and whether he can mount a case there's a regular spot for him.

Pleasing that Jongy was able to get back so quickly too. May he pick up where he frenetically left off.
