TOPIC:

Another wet Saturday forecast, who will it suit? Cl are a fast team so hopefully it will slow them down, we seem to be improving week by week after those 2 losses and all in wet conditions. Cant see any changes apart from Dela and Kennedy coming in, so Matthews or Putt will drop out and one of the backs, which is tough as the backline has been very good.

Crap oval to watch footy at when it's wet, that so called grandstand is missing the awning that protects the seating, unbelievable design omission. If it's on FRS or Subi FB I might not bother with the trip down just to sit in the rain.

Yes agree SS. Dela and Kennedy in and probably Matthews and Fullgrabe to miss out. Matthews seems to have taken a back seat to Putt in ruck duties and Fullgrabe as he's a like for like for Kennedy. I'd still like to see Golding in for Hickmott the Younger and Mayo off the bench as he gives the flexibility to play back or forward. We knocked them off by 40 points last time at Leedy but think it will be much closer this time with a wet track as you say.

Gee this is a mouth watering clash. Both teams looking strong. I’m the eternal pessimist and have seen Subi’s worst and best this year - and there is a big gap between the two. But the listed team tonight is close to how I would name our best. Of the 8 man interchange I rate 3 of them as league players. Hoping for a cracking game

Probably our best side for the season with only Borchet, Atkinson and Rowan Powell missing so no excuses.

If its wet, as forecast, I'd include Fullgrabe, Golding, Robbins and Hickmont, wont need any extra talls. Need a lockdown on Bolton, so maybe one of the Hickmonts could do that job, shame Beverley is not listed, he's good in that role, strong enough to go with Bolton.

Based on the named reserves team it looks like Mayo will play seniors. I'm not sure who misses out as that's three if Dela and Kennedy also come in.

Yes BC, Clinch, Robbins, Matthews and Golding all named in the ressies. great to see Mayo picked, need to get some league games under his belt before finals where he could be a key. We dont have a lot of height compared to teams like Souths. Conditions may not suit him but he needs to play league to get up to that game tempo compared to ressies.

What happened to the kid that won the Colts medal last year, BC??? And Jai Jackson??

KC, Jai Jackson went back up to Gero mate post his cameo at Subi....for personal reasons more then anything  else.....I see Jonny Narkle has been back playing at Chapman Valley of late.....is Garlett still at Subi?.....I reckon a lot of Liam Ryan's success at Subi has probably encouraged these indigenous Gero boys to Subi.....EF sure do miss the boat with these kids I reckon.

Judging by that, not sure we missed the boat, Freeze but time will tell. Didn't mind Jackson but don't know much about the other guys....
