Oliver out with general soreness (sounds like just resting)

Salem out with hamstring tightness, which is no good. He’s had issues with hamstrings before. Hopefully nothing a rest can’t fix.

Where is Clayton Oliver?

He's laying low with some character called "General Soreness"...

A half forward line of Jones/Baker/ANB has the stench of a premiership written all over it

 

 

Oliver and Salem "managed"

Way to go!

Never show your complete hand in practice matches!!!

All four of Bowey. Petty, Laurie and Bedford were very exciting last week in the 2nds... deserved their call up.

Agree good to see youngsters get a taste now.  I think Bailey Laurie will crack it for a senior debut game later in the year. 

Oliver, Salem, Brayshaw, Viney, Hibberd, Melksham, B Brown and Weid all out.

Meanwhile the Dogs have a near full strength side. 
 

Hard to see us winning this one, but hopefully a few lesser lights can step up tomorrow and show that we have good depth.

So do we go with Vanders and Lockhart from the get go as that team line up may suggest or do we throw Laurie and Bowey in to the fire and see if they are ready for round 1?

Petty and Tomlinson get a half each? Or May/Lever plays a half and then has a rest so the other 2 can compete for more time?

There's plenty of guys playing for their spots.

WBs  a strong line up. Johannesan in the 2s,  Hope at least one of our recruits get a run.

How many on the bench?

Best to see how Jones, Neal-Bullen and Vandenburg measure up earlier rather than later. We're resting players and trying players. Sensible course of action and giving a couple of key players a rest is fine with me. The result of this match is immaterial in the long-term.

For those who like team lists:-

1. Steven May 

2. Nathan Jones 

4. James Harmes 

5. Christian Petracca 

6. Luke Jackson 

8. Jake Lever 

9. Charlie Spargo 

11. Max Gawn 

12. Toby Bedford 

15. Ed Langdon 

16. Bailey Laurie 

17. Jake Bowey  

20. Adam Tomlinson 

22. Aaron vandenBerg 

23. James Jordon 

24. Trent Rivers 

25. Tom McDonald 

29. Jayden Hunt 

30. Alex Neal-Bullen

31. Bayley Fritsch

32. Tom Sparrow

33. Oskar Baker 

35. Harrison Petty 

37. Kade Chandler 

39. Neville Jetta 

41. Jay Lockhart

Oliver out will give good game time to Sparrow Jordan. I want to see what they have. If they have decent games should play rd 1. Bowey Laurie aswell although prob not rd 1 with players to return 

Oliver out Managed,doesn't cut it with me.His training form has been absolutely SENSATIONAL !! Is something amiss??

and his mate Corporal Punishment 

I think it works in our favour the doggies playing a full-strength side. Give our players challenging for a round one spot a proper test.

I'll assume that Aemond is an anagram... Daemon? Good get for originality if so. Just as well I know Latin to get it. Agree with your assessment in that we need to find out sooner rather than later.

That side is not filling me with confidence on the cusp of Round 1

Massive game for Jordon. What he do in the middle against a top midfield. 

bowey and Laurie could make round 1 debuts with strong performances. 

Can’t wait to see the boys play!

Oliver just posted a photo of himself at Gosch’s Paddock from this morning. He was clearly training with the leftover group of players. I accept that he is being managed.

I look at the forward line and shake my head. Spoon written all over it.

The same forward line that just kicked 14 goals against Richmond?
