Well at least one of the four youngsters will play. Could, and probably should, be more than the one.
You would think Rowe would come in for Bucks, but as for the others, it's anyone's guess...

dont mind seeing rocca in the ruck, but against adelaide who do not have a champion ruckman, i reckon give fanning a go and play a really tall forward line try and stretch them. Im a touch worried about obree as our centre. Im really hoping rowe gets a lot of game time this week.

i'd love to see egan play!! that's great that he's got a selection even if it ends up being an emergency. I'd have cam cloke ahead of walker...cam cloke played in the ruck at eastern ranges as well as at williamstown so he has much more experience than walker.

Your right. Clement, Lonie & Johnno should pumping the ball long every time.
Instead its a chip to the flank, chip to the wing,back to the centre, then a chip out to the other flank,..etc

yep with maxwell in the team, we need clement upfield pumping the ball long. And on the subject of shaw, for a change i really hope he plays, i would love to see him do a tagging role on mcleod. Play mcleod the same way he does judd. Mcleod does not have a physical presence that will worry shaw as cooney may have last week. Perfect match up for him. Plus he has shown that his pace can hurt his opponent in the opposite direction.

A quality player like mcleod will lead rheecey to the ball, and then shaw can do the rest. The more game time he gets, the better his disposal will be.

How can you say Rhyce should be dropped after last weeks game?
Did you see the game? (not saying he was great, he was good, but was a lot better than many). Does you opinion of him change whether he has 2 kicks a game or has 50 and kicks 10? Give the bloke a break!!

The good news is that Lokan wasnt included!!
Rowe, Egan, C.Cloke, Maxwell should all be in with Bux, O'Bree, Williams and either Lonie or Woey out.

Very pleased. Good to see all 4 kids come in - will add freshness to the side. Bit of added pace is good, too. Thanks god Loakn isn't in!
