Changes vs GWS

Interesting. I think Graham has really started to hit his straps the last couple of weeks. Also thought he'd be needed to help combat the always strong Giants midfield. But I suppose as we are getting players back someone is going to be very unlucky. A couple of weeks ago it was Baker and now it's Graham. I really though Egg would be the unlucky one but good to see he gets another go. I would have probably dropped Ellis but that said he's been good last couple of games as well. I think Rioli can consider himself lucky; he's not in great form and really needs to lift. But when he's in top form he is a best 22 lock.

Rioli usually plays well against GWS

No excuses on Sunday. The Giants are still a good side but we clearly have the better side and should handle them on the G. With a reasonably tough run to follow I don't think we can afford to drop this game.

We lose, time to plan for next year.

Like that some of the blokes considered by many to be best 22 have to work their clacker off in the twos to get back while the other guys need to do likewise to stay there. .. win/win... (I hope)!

Jack G out well I wasnt expecting that.

me either but it is the year of BOLD selections by the MC and I sort of love it from a development point of view that Eggs isn't dropped after one game.
Jack unlucky as anyone would have been.

I always prefer Graham in the team, ads accountability to the midfield, in saying that I’m glad DES stays, good bunch of mudlarks we have in the emergencies

Horrible decision to drop Graham. His form has been good and was starting to get back to his late 2017 form.
Not sure what they are thinking here.
