TOPIC:

I’d say Putt & Martin are certain starters. Then I’d take Atkinson for his size (reserves form been fair), and Faraone for his goal kicking ability.
Could Beverley be a tag on Schloithe? I think I recall him shutting down Jye Bolton a year or so ago?

Once we see the ressies list we'll know who's in and who's out. More rain today and forecast more for tomorrow, not too heavy but the track will be graded as slow, maybe even heavy, which I think will suit us better and influence how many talls get selected.

Just had a look at the ressies line up and none of the guys on the league interchange list are mentioned in the ressies, so we wont know who's playing until the ressies run out. Probably waiting to see how the weather pans out before finalising the 22.

I just saw where Ainsworth was delisted by the Beagles...hopefully we'll see him back in maroon and gold next year.

Hopefully we get one back then as there's a fair chance of Clark, Johnson, Erasmus suiting up against us next year

Ainsworth would be a welcome addition back to our midfield next season if he doesn’t get a chance at another afl club. I feel he is a bit unlucky but that is the afl  (takes kids and spits them out if they don’t develop quickly). Ben Johnson (WP) and Will Collins (SD) also delisted. 
Back to the second semi I would be reluctant to load up too much on size given the likely conditions. Would stick with Putt , Martin, Matera and Golding. 
 

Bailey Matera, Nick Martin, Jacob Atkinson and Ben Golding named on the bench so Putt, Clinch, Faraone and Beverley all miss out.

Wow, that's a change. Putt has struggled recently and Atkinson can play in the ruck. 

Putts omission is interesting. No Oskar Matthews in either game.
so Dela to ruck with Atkinson as backup? I like Putts potential- he does some great stuff. But the Delahunty/Atkinson mobile ‘short’ talls is an interesting tact against south’s 

Atkinson over Putt is interesting , Atkinson can play back or forward as well as ruck but hasn’t played a lot of footy this year. Clinch,  I assume will play reserves along with Putt, Beverley and Faraone. maybe keep one back as an emergency?
