Maybe I've missed something on this thread, but really puzzled why Lambert not in; can only be for needing more game time in VFL coming back from injury. But thought 28 poss in 3 qts last week was a standout, plus if you look at the highlights, sets up a top goal for McD from middle and kicked a great snap from the pocket too. Just what we really need. However hope McD plays with Gordon to replace Menadue as sub. Want someone there who is going to get it at least 8-10 times and can be a hard-runner who can score. Love Menadue but he's such a skinny kid who's probably due to head back to VFL and play a full game. Save him for easier opp than Swans, against whom very little outside ball on SCG. Would like to see him protected for next year mostly, maybe put him in for games like GWS & GC, another pre-season chance to put some hard muscle on the 70kg frame. We've already burnt 2 youngsters due to a crap year for injuries but now some senior players getting back.
Cany see Lanbert olaying has missed a lot if footy will get a few weeks in the Vfl
