PS If we were at full strength, Rocko would be in the team, he is a very classy footballer.......!! He is going to be great!

Big ask for Blake!!!

He's done it before. And Goose will probably only play about 1/2 a game. They can share the spot. When Goose is on the ground Blakey can perform other tasks !!

i find it strange that we have a pretty good defence yet already in our back 6 are two recruits who imo haven't shown much ever...

big ask...

I mean big ask for Blake to play 2 positions - back pocket and CHB

Anyone know which Saint's players are playing for Sandi?

Do we have someone that is going to update us through the match, can we organise and nominate someone beforehand?

I like how many players are pushing for selection

Don't tell me. I bet it has something to do with back and hamstring!

I think 4-5 very good players may not play on Friday.

I also think match practice is vital...especially considering our starts over the last three/your year - 4/7 anyone? I would imagine only niggles would be rested.

agree with the playing a coaching group on this one. Despite going to adelaide twice there is no reason not to be 4-1 afer 5 rounds (split the road trips).

well there is debate now lol.

god knows with Ross.....
hopefully he at least has a run for a quarter to see where this knee is at.

CeilidhSaint · Thu 12 Mar 2009 9:16pm

Direct from a player the team picked will be a strong one with an eye on Round 1 so the whole squad will be busting their guts to get in the squad and then do well.

saint66au · Post: # 709083Post **saint66au** » Thu 12 Mar 2009 9:25pm

So...Armo not playing..would this be.....

Already done enough and locked in for Rnd 1?

Injured and not being risked?

Not in the mix for Round 1??

Thoughts?

Not sure if its true but Herald Sun said that Maguire would be playing the VFL this weekend despite being picked for the NAB game.

I know he's a favourite on here but if he's out for this afternoons game I wouldn't have thought he's done enough to earn a spot for round 1. We've fielded a stronger team than the previous week in every game so far with the intention of hitting the ground running rather than getting off to a sluggish start.

I suppose we have to bear in mind that any fringe/returning players will still have the opportunity to play for the Zebras next weekend in an attempt to mount a case for a spot in the round 1 team.

Hard to predict i guess, but last week he came back from his slight injury, so maybe they dont want to risk him this week - perhaps theyre giving him time with the zebras?? Give him a better run that way...
I dunno... its all speculative i guess

So..

R Clarke
McQualter
Watts
Amitage
McEvoy
Lynch

Our last 6 first-round picks...and its quite likely none of them will be playing Round 1 2009

Back luck with injuries? Depth? Poor recruiting?

be very suprised if raph doesn't play, I hazard a guess that they are going easy with his body.

Macca is a ruckman and lynch is being treated slowly slowly...

interesting stat all the same

You'd want Raph to play for Sandy either this week or next to be any chance. Has not played a lead up game at all.
