Looks like Mummy might miss and Everitt probably needs a ressies game.

Ins. TDL and Parker with LRT to ruck with Pykie.

For structure purposes, if Mummy is out, could White come in perhaps? Looks to have had a good game playing number 1 ruck / forward in the Ressies.

I agree we need to have a real ruck type not a part timer like LRT in the ruck. I think this is a good idea as Jesse has been playing quite well in the Twos. Nipper had a blinder yesterday, must like getting up early or something. Liked Mitchell as well he and Lukie were a terrible twosome for poor old Belconnen, they tore them to shreds. Both of them roved to young Naismith beautifully, he is coming along well by the way. I hope we at least Rookie Draft him next year. Nipper, Tom and Lukie in the centre square at one stage and they were awesome, just unbeatable. I hope Nip gets a start soon as I think we are wasting him.

I agree with the changes suggested by the OP. We looked like we could of used a genuine small forward today.

I think this game is an opportunity to give a few players a rest. Reid perhaps? Not due to form but just give him a spell. Mummy won't play. We have players like moore, spangher, morton etc that could come in and easily account for the gold coast. Geelong rested players last season and it proved a success.

Does anyone think the MRP may look at McGlynn's bump on Goddard?

I'd be surprised but who knows?

Surely not? From memory looked like a nice hit.

No, it looked like a fair bump to me. Both players up right, Mcglynn didn't leave the ground to bump.Don't think there was head high contact ( if there was it was an incidental head clash) Should be fine. Then again, the MRP is a bad joke so probably 4 weeks for Benny...
