Dimma not convinced on lHugo's disposal. pretty important in an outside role.
Aarts has been strong this preseason but he's got to play well.
Glad Pickett came in for KMac.

That's a tallish looking team.

Yep, was thinking the same thing. With Nank and Soldo in the ruck and helping out in the forward line. Plus Balta who can go back if needed to help out Grimes, Broad And Tarrant, Gibcus wasn't needed. I would've left him out and put in another runner like Ralphsmith

So much for players being selected on preseason form.
Not a great message for the young ones but I bow to the greater authority
Agree. At his best Graham is an elite endurance runner & with McIntosh & Lambert missing we lack workhorses. I understand the reasoning to play him, I just hope he's RTG..

They are struggling if theyve got Stocker down as a notable absentee.

I'd say Jones and Marchbank are much more significant

Good side although I'm still; not keen on Ross on a Wing I'd rather have Hugo's run and carry.

Most disappointing to see Stack not even make the emergencies.

Surely he should be tracking ahead of Dow and Parker ffs.

Going to make him really work for it.
Hope it’s the best thing for his long term personal development.
We know there’s 3-4 players in the seniors who aren’t fit to carry his boots talent wise.

Gibcus will obviously play back allowing Balta to go forward.
KMac is the interesting one as is the only established player that has been left out but not injured.
I thought he played quite well in pre-season games.
Hugo the likely sub.
