    Dawson injured?
    Ressies are curtain raiser for tomorrow night, strange about Dawson who should have been emergency at a minimum. Assume Edwards will play ressies to get the run.

    I know, if he plays a blinder, I think I have a fair idea who will be wearing the blame.

    I feel for Dawson. Look forward to hearing what the matter (if any) is. I hope there is an explanation.

    Happy enough with those changes and while I'd like to see Dawson rewarded for his reserves form, I like Florent. Towers has dodged a bullet but I suspect his pace is keeping him in. He will want to be better than last week though!

    What role and match up would everyone go for if u picked Dawson ?

    Aliir didn't train today and won't play NEAFL

    Whether McVeigh pulls up well from training will determine whether he plays NEAFL

    They have Bellchambers. McKernan, Daniher and Stewart named and we have Grundy, Melican and ... Looks like our resting ruckman will be playing in defence otherwise we will be streeeetched. Match ups don't look great.

    Rampe's been playing tall for more than a few years now. We will be fine

    Agreed.

    Dawson should get a chance during the run in, both him and Olly have been playing well in the twos. It would be good for Olly to really stamp himself on the match and make it hard to be dropped.

    Looking forward to seeing Dawson in the twos tomorrow afternoon.

    Feel sorry for Marsh but you just feel him and Towers will be in-out throughout their careers.

    Really glad McVeigh didn't just waltz back into the seniors, hope he plays NEAFL though

    At most they will have three talls in their fwd line at any one time but if they do they will be caught out on the rebound. You could name Reid, Buddy, Naismith and Sinclair by the same method for us.

    Don't think match ups will be a worry providing we are better organised than early game last week.

    McVeigh needs a couple of quality NEAFL runs as a minimum before senior selection.

    Happy to see re-signed Florent in again, he looks a talent, just needs to have more impact.

    Towers has been saved by the need to make two changes already, if he's not prominent this week he'll make way for Jones next week. I don't see Towers or Marsh as best 22 either now or in the future, depth players.

    Once again; Marsh very unlucky. Would love to know what he did wrong last week.

    Not much I'd say, Marsh being dropped more a structural decision to allow an extra tall
