That has to be the tallest named forward line ever.

No JJ is a shocking oversight. I know its against the hive mind but he’s better than at least 8 of those other guys. Feels like we’re cutting our nose off with whatever point we’re trying to prove.

JJ has taken the piss for a few years on great coin. He's in the top handful in terms of impact and skill on his day, but he was in terrible shape last year and deserves a rocket. Hopefully this sends a message that getting a game isn't a given, and while he's making 600k+ a year, footy should be his priority, rather than fashion shoots and cool hairstyles.

A tad worried we have Vandermeer and Treloar with history of soft tissue injuries plus Duryea with his not great injury record with us all in 22

Given there is an injury substitute available the risk is greatly mitigated.

Who will get the sub vest - JJ or West?

I'd go with JJ. If he finds himself coming on in the second half, his speed and running power could be pretty handy.

For once we stretch the opposition, but holding the ball in the forward line will be a challenge.

I dare say JJ was probably one of the players Dunkley took issue with re fitness standards.

That was actually BS put out by media, plus I can assure you JJ had no issues with fitness last year.

Scott and McNeil get their debut's

Zaine, Richards, JJ can't get into the team.

There is a bit of pace on the bench - will be interesting to see though whether this team is more than just talk.

Good luck to Anthony and Lachie on their debuts.

Looking forward to seeing Adam Treloar and Stefan Martin in action.

Didn't you call him out for his weight?

Nope - pretty sure that was Comrade.

Yeah, that was me. He was definitely out of shape.

Was there supposed to be a match committee thread this week?

I think he was the only player he didn't!
