Managed due to niggle.

“Xavier has been managing some soreness, and we will give him a week to freshen up and recover,” GM of AFL Football Performance Alan Richardson said.

“It’s more about looking after him and making sure we are setting him up well for the longer term.”

Guess it makes sense to rest him vs Reigning back-to-back Premiers given short break before Anzac Eve match.
Hopefully nothing big.

I always worry when Laurie is selected.

Hope he goes well. But he's my if he's in the team we are in trouble player

Enjoy Picket!

Cross, AMW named to play VFL

And also listed as "thumb - 2-3 weeks" on the injury list.

He's uniquely versatile

A tall forward line to say the least.

Will be interesting to see King's tactics

Under 50 points would be a good result but there's always the Luck of the Irish

Free Entry for holders of British passports as well as Irish. (What would Father Murphy have to say)

Was wrong about moose not likely to get the nod but happy he has. Probably most deserving of the reserve players.

It's an interesting tall mix, I'm curious how they manage game time amongst Mihocek, JvR, Jeffo and Heath.

Live view - looking through the team sheet

Salem, McDonald and Melksham out at the same time with the players coming in ranging from 18 to 24 years old. Statistically our team taking the field will drop average age by more than a year!

Might actually be worth checking to see if we end up being the youngest team of the round, let's see-

Melbourne 25yrs, 2 months.

Richmond 24yrs 10 months.

West Coast 24yrs 4 months.

game hasn’t even started woww

I can't see Max and Heath lining up in the same game this year - AT ALL.

Fair to say the above named poster got this one atrociously wrong.

Any chance of Max resting in the D50?

Curious given the height how much ToG Laurie will get, he'll need to have his skates on.

The MC might think that the only way to win is to win in the air (forward line)

Otherwise, we're a tad top-heavy and I can see the Lions having an easy passage out of our forward line

Maybe Heath helps out down back when he's not rucking? Let's hope that Checkers, JVR & Jeffo don't get in the way of each other

UNAVAILABLE- Bowey, Rivers, Viney, Jiath, Lindsay, Salem (all potentially in best 23), Melksham, McAdam , Campbell, Johnson

Hard to see us winning this one

The tall forward line will be interesting. On the selected Lions side 5 are around that 183cm mark and then Andrews. Gallop will probably play CHB but will still keep them exposed to one of our talls. I guess we will use that triangle of separation that Freo use with their 3 tall forwards. Their smaller defenders will have to double team at least one our taller forwards so the two picketts and Sharp will have a ball if it hits the deck.
