Changes for Rnd 17 v The Saints.

[Beerman]

Last time we played them their midfield pressure killed us. It was incredible - I think we won the contested possession count but every time we won the ball we had no time to use it and they forced a turnover. It will probably be worse on the SCG as well.

I can't see anyone we could bring in who would make much of a difference to this. Other than Parker (possibly), I think we have our best 22 fit players out there. Goodes to the midfield is my suggestion.

No change.

Give Parker a run in the ressies. He was tiring when injured, second year midfielder let him build his fitness back up, not be worn out by the time finals come

This is so freakin hilarious. Best thread ever. I'm feelin the lurve. How can anyone not love LRT's commitment, but he may well get the precautionary week off if there is any doubt whatsoever about his noggin. Everitt would start with PArks in the vest

And you accuse others of being OTT when they critisise LRT.

Given his previous head injuries he may still not play. Possibly Everitt to take his role as third tall forward.

There was no ressies game this weekend so Parker could be short of a gallop - so he's either a candidate for the vest or for one more run in the twos.

The other possible in is TDL.

Can just see it now, Trent smashing packs, throwing his head at blokes feet, standing on a running key backman. To the point he scares the @@@@ out of them or breaks a bone.

Man for man replacement for LRT
