Next match- v Box Hill @ Williamstown 14 June 1.10pm UPDATE
Firstly, Rupe was found not guilty of striking at the tribunal, which is good news for what is shaping to be THE best VFL game so far this year.
Williamstown team line-up.
B: Hollow ~ West ~ Cole
HB: Lokan ~ Dukes ~ Lonie*
C: Scotland* ~ Fletcher ~ Freeborn
HF: Swan ~ Cloke ~ Cranage
F: Molloy ~ Kinnear ~ Mahoney
R: McKee ~ Betheras ~ McGough*
Int: Anderson ~ Baldwin* ~ Jarrad ~ Lloyd*
Mullins ~ Nixon* ~ Ramsay ~ Richards
Runnalls* ~ Shackleton* ~ Sheehan ~ Smoker*
An impressive line-up, even if I do say so, but I can't see Lonie not playing seniors, along with possibly Scooter. This should see Brad Lloyd line up at HB, with Shack or Nixon taking the vacancy on the wing.
Marcus Baldwin should be there somewhere, as with Runnalls, who has been amongst the best in recent weeks.
If the wet and wild weather that's predicted does eventuate, McG should also get his call-up to the seniors, leaving two spots on the bench for the others to fight over. One choice would be Craig 'Choof' Smoker.
If my predictions turn out correct, the side would now look like this:
B: Lokan ~ West ~ Cole
HB: Lloyd ~ Dukes ~ Freeborn
C: Nixon ~ Fletcher ~ Cranage
HF: Swan ~ Cloke ~ Betheras
F: Molloy ~ Kinnear ~ Mahoney
R: McKee ~ Shackleton ~ Runnalls
Int: Hollow ~ Anderson ~ Baldwin ~ Smoker
This line-up provides a good balance, taking the weather in to account, meaning that to play Richards would cause The Gulls to be top heavy. Mullins would continue in the 'magoos' as his disposal still needs some work, whilst there just wouldn't be the room for small players like Luke Jarrad, Aaron Ramsay and Leigh Sheehan.
All will be revealed at 1.10pm Saturday 14 June.

I think Molly needs the chance to get his hands on the footy, and a run for Williamstown could be what he needs to regain some confidence.
However, you need to keep in mind that I'm not a selector, so anything could happen on the weekend. He may even get one more chance at senior level, and if that does happen, good luck to him, but he will need a vast improvement on recent weeks to retain his spot.
