I have only seen the game in parts, but the stat sheet says Lachie smith has had a reasonable day. He was taken to the absolute cleaners by madden in last years corresponding fixture.

Probably gives an indication of how his progressing.

The worry is we had 11 AFL listed players

Biggest loss we've had since we entered the competition in 2014 I believe.

The Giants are a very strong side with 8 players who were taken between 12-24 in the draft in recent years; we had just one (Croft).

Injury list was always going to bite. When you have 7 players 20 games or less in the senior side the cupboard is bare.

We can fix that a little bit this week with some other selections.

Yeah and Garcia who is one of the premier midfielders in the comp missing. I don’t believe Orgil right now is in the same ballpark as leaders we’ve previously had like Sullivan & McComb, so it’s a tough ask for the reserves team right now
