    In: Sinclair, Cunningham, Allir
    The difference between insanity and genius is measured only in success.

    The only changes will be those that are forced.
    So, maybe
    Out: Reid
    In: Sinclair?

    In: Allir

    Out: Reid(inj)

    Dawson unlucky but need an extra tall for balance. It would have been Tippett but body let him down again. If not Allir, would be Sinclair but Allir is much better when the ball hits the deck.

    Assuming Reid is out I'd just bring in Dawson and play Gary at FF.

    If Gary is out as well then we have some issues, I guess you bring in Sinkers. If this is the case then it would represent the first time I'd be wishing we had Xav on the list....

    With a bit of luck it's just Sammy and he's back before the finals

    No injuries and it's Dawson in for Robbo

    Dawson IN, must be given a run after a string of outstanding NEAFL games. Brings a difference to the forward line and kicks long and straight!

    Not sure why we need an extra tall in, not against the Saints. If the coaches weren't keen to do so against the giant Giants (before Cameron's withdrawal) I don't see that they will against the Saints. They have Bruce and Riewoldt, and presumably they'll stick with Battle next week. A bit like Richmond (though not quite as pronounced), the Saints' forward line relies a fair bit on its fleet of quick and short/medium players - the likes of Lonie, Billings, Gresham, Long and Sinclair.

    I think if Cameron had have played we would have been in trouble. But due to the Giants only having two talls we were quite ok. The last three times we have met up until this time we have had problems with their talls. The other reaon we need an extra tall is Reid will most likely not play. Someone needs to take Reid's place. A small will not do as leaving Buddy one out in the forward line as the only tall is not an option as he gets exposed because he is not a huge pack mark. this also takes it's toll on his body and we don't want that. Need the extra tall to play the foil.

    Out: Reid (inj), Robinson
    In: Dawson, Hayward

    Outs - Reid, Hannas, Robinson

    Ins - Aliir, Dawson, Heywood

    Reid looked very hampered and you don't take chances with the Reid boys and soft tissue injuries. Bring in Aliir to give a contest up forward and help in the ruck.

    It was mentioned in another thread that Hannas potentially had OP. If that's the case then it's time for some time off and he can be back to impact the finals.

    I'm looking for an excuse to get Dawson into the seniors and Robinson is that excuse. Dawson is a similar size to Robinson but I think he would offer the team more attacking capability.
