The 'ins' make sense, but overall we are considerably slower without Wells and Murray, as neither of our 'ins' are fast.

Greenwood is similar to Sier in terms of a role to play, and can also be used to tag. It will indeed be interesting to see how we use him, given his limited pre season. He won't be able to tag McCrae for the entire game, but maybe he will for some of the time. Or maybe, like Sier would have been, he is just there to add extra firepower so that our midfield gets the ball more than theirs. Either way, to me the selection of Greenwood seems similar to selecting Sier, but we have opted to go with experience, and Greenwood's considerable defensive capabilities.
I am happy with Greenwood being selected, just as much as I would have been with Sier.

He played on the half back line in the VFL, so maybe he will play there as a direct swap for Murray?

Why Greenwood? No pre-season, average VFL performances, and a hack kick. Missed opportunity to try either Wills or Sier.

Don't agree with Murray out. Appleby has too many nervous moments and his kicking is not up to scratch.

Sorry, not optimistic on this one. We've needed DeGoey brilliance to win the last 2 against bottom teams. We're just going as a team at the moment.

We owe these blokes. Have to turn up and play 4 quarters as their form has been OK recently after a crap start.

Hopefully they are tired after that slog against Adelaide. We only had to play 3 quarters last week so should be fresher. Shouldn't matter about ins and outs the system has to support selection. Especially against this mob.

I'm a bit surprised by the selections.
Greenwood I can understand - he's had lots of time in the vfl
Reid I'd have thought would need a game or two before coming into the seniors but can sort of understand
Daicos I thought was ok when he played but he's not fast - Nicks might have got me keen but I'd really thought if a player was coming in it might have been Seir.

good luck guys - hope you have a day out

Greenwood selection is pretty oblivious he will run with McRae and shut him down. That’s the only reason why Greenwood has been bought in. Take him out and we are well on the way to the 4 points

Sier doesn’t play in place of Daicos - he plays in place of Adams or Greenwood. Daicos has Wells’ spot.
