Interesting, they've named Ryder and Polec. |
Bad news. I would tip us if either of them were out and if Howe had been able to come in for us. As it is it’s going to be tough.

When was the last time we went unchanged?
I'll be surprised if Ryder plays. I thought Houston might not get up either.

I hope Ryder plays, I'd prefer Grundy up against an injured very good ruck than a wildcard with a point to make.

Personally, I would prefer an injured wild card with a point to prove but I take your point.
Port are in an interesting dilemma. Do they play the Polecs, Houston’s and Ryder’s in order to get them to finals and risk further injury as a consequence OR do they bank on still getting there without them and having them fit for Sept. This is when the medical staff earn their money ( or get sacked on the back of getting it wrong ) |

So port have named 3 reported injured players, including an all Australian that was "less than 50/50 chance" a day ago... Sounds good to me. Hombsch and Bonner are Fringe players at best, also defenders not 200cm full forwards.
As long as we can shutdown Gray (Maynard as Gray will be forward) and Wingard (greenwood as Wingard will be more in the centre) and I'd love to see Sier head to head with wines.
Pies by 24pts.

It's risky. I remember when essendon pushed Ryder into the ruck because of an injured ruckman and he demolished Josh Fraser. Against West Coast, Nic Nat went down and the second ruck took it right up to Grundy.
Be wary of an injured champ, but be more wary of a wild card with a point to prove and nothing to lose

Madgen and Ox in the backline 
I'd like to see us get out of this one. |

Looked a bit proppy and restricted at training. Supposedly will come up.
Earlier in the week it was Landon’s toe.
I try not to bother with this stuff at this time at year. You won’t get better clickbait in Melbourne, than Collingwood on the eve of a finals series. |

Copped a knock at training. A bit proppy, but should be okay.

Just had a look at the Port website Watts, Westhof and Rockliff up front, might prove a handful for a back line shorter than a miniskirt. They could expose Magden.
