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.
Forward Bob Murphy will return from a torn hamstring against the Lions, while Higgins is expected back for the Geelong game after a similar problem, although he said before Saturday's match that the injury was recovering better than expected.
Bulldogs midfielder Daniel Cross underwent surgery last night on the right ankle injured against the Eagles. The length of his recovery time will be known today.
Spearhead Scott Welsh, who struggled for form prior to injuring an ankle, will resume in the VFL this weekend while Daniel Giansiracusa, who damaged a knee in round 13, will return via a similar pathway in a fortnight.

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.
Have a (completely baseless) suspicion Welsh may not get up.
There was one player who trained only lightly at Wednesday's session and might be doubtful, but there was only 22 players on the track so a change is unlikely.
Higgins & Gia were training hard doing boxing & bike work so hopefully we will see them on the park shortly.
