In: Picken, Murph (if risked on the Brisbane trip, certainly not a week to bring Welsh back in me thinks)
Out: Everitt, Cross
Addison and Stack to both get another go as their form has at least been better than Everitt's over the previous 2 weeks, and Everitt's intensity is not going to be of benefit in finals. Stack and Addison on the other hand, may offer something.
Agree and it's a worry. He really needs a natural disaster to take his home so he can find a source of anger that will help him on field.
Maybe he's just cut from the same cloth as his brother. Pretty hard to manufacture a fervent desire and intensity that simply may not come naturally. His stagnation is a definitely worry though - massive pre-season coming up for him.
Out - Cross, Stack & Everitt
In - Picken, Murphy, Welsh
Is that a guess, or an educated guess there TCD?

If Welsh does come back into the side, is he playing for his spot on the list next year - or has his ticket been punched?
I tend to think his time has come and Hall will ensure that, but if he puts a 6 weeks together of good footy, can he get a contract extension?

He should be - he always struggles when he's underdone.
Not worth risking a passenger in our most important game of the year, particularly when you have Bobby coming off an extended lay off as well.
Totally agree with all that but Eade really has a lot of faith in the older guys/little faith in the younger guys. I really hope they don't pick him but I think Rocket and co. will look for any excuse to bring in Welsh for a kid like Stack or Dre.

Eade was the one that said he would play at Willi
FFC: Established 1883
Premierships: AFL 1954, 2016 VFA - 1898,99,1900, 1908, 1913, 1919-20, 1923-24, VFL: 2014, 2016 . Champions of Victoria 1924. AFLW - 2018.
What Eade says about team selection to the media and what Eade does with team selection can be very different things. I don't think that Welsh will be in the side and I definitely don't thing he should be in the side but you never know with Eade. Especially when you consider how much faith he has in the older guys.
