Good to see Medders back, he will add some Accuracy to our forward line!

Will need the run but should still kick a couple I'd say.

Magpie Since 1986 wrote:I actually thought it was Dick's best game for the club last week, especially in the first half. I would have dropped Dick last week but not after his performance against the Dogs.

Complete agreement here, though I guess someone had to come out for Medhurst. Bit odd to see Richards in the emergencies, are Bryan or Fraser in doubt?

I agree with earlier comments about brisbane being a physical side, so its good to have dick out for now. He has put on a good show, very impressive, and likely to play again this year.

Brisbane would be too much for him, last year we came out of our match quite hurt, losing maxwell and caracella, in a brutal game, but at least we destroyed their season by taking brown out. You only have to look at Nick Reiwoldt and how they exploited his weakness to see what their mentallity is.

On the good side, their backline is weak. Johnson in for them is a huge must, the rest of their backline is fresh, young, and not particularly skilled. Rocca is going to have a field day, as will Cloke, and with didak and medhurst prowling, we will be scoring almost every inside 50, so let's hope our midfield can match theirs, or at least come close, because our backline is solid even without the general.

No way. Want the best side they can muster so they can't turn around and BS about 'No full strength side' . So I hope he does play!!!!

Happy with the change. While Dick has been steadily improving, he hasn't been doing enough to keep an established senior player out. Dick will only get better for the experience of the last few weeks.

I'm Tipping Brisbane to win by 20 points our record is poor at the gabba plus i think we have mental scars still from our past grand final losses. I think we are a 10-8 ranked side with our youth still learning but if the club thinks we are better than that prove me wrong.

fixters a dud. we're better off if he's fit.

God, i cant wait to get there tomorrow!

Fixters ok, tackles like a maniac...doesnt get enough of the ball but. I dont care what side they muster as long as we win. We've been without some pretty big names this year as well.
