No brainer. Get the Budwa in. Straight swap for RB with Warner playing permanent mid
I live in Adelaide so have the constant unfortunate experience of Crows in the media. For my sake we just have to beat them next week or life becomes unbearable!
Weather might be a factor in Bud's return, I understand it's a tad damp in NSW at present and that may persist through the week.
A decent reserves game report would be appreciated if anyone has one, or better, went to the game
You won't be happy till he is delisted will you?

Little bit i have read suggested he was quiet but got through the game okay. Interesting call to see if they give him another week or 2 of practice games to build up a bit of confidence and minutes on the park.

Apologies Matt. Very hard to ignore.
I'll say that I don't believe that Bud should be rushed back in. He's one of the greatest 300 game champions in the game but also has played 1/2 a game in the last 18 months. He's 34 and needs to be carefully reintroduced. There were no injuries reported after the match last night. I say no changes for this week
It is an interesting quirk of the fixture how the two sides that pulled off the biggest upsets in round 1 are playing each other in round 2, while the two sides that they beat are also playing each other in round 2.
