Surely only one change,
Brown in and McKenzie out.

2 years ago against Roos, Brown n Carlisle stopped their fwds to the point that Ben Brown and another Norf tall spent a lot of time on the bench, cos they were ineffective.
Hoping AR remembers this

Richo said that he didn't want a lot of changes, maybe one or two.

Oh the hilarity of the Richo team selection night.

When they send him packing, hopefully soon, I think they should invite him to name a squad each week just for the mirth...

Hard to hate him when he rolls out a squad like this... such a shame he can't name Mav!

A pure comic genius is Richo.

You bloody beauty!!

[kosifantutti]

Lonie playing at Sandy.

[Bruce G McAbee]

Armitage gets 1 more game to say goodbye. But not before our last game at Marvel.
He's been a great servant but his time to move on has come.

[stkfc1]

And White misses again. Its going to be awesome watching him play 100+ games at another club.

[WellardSaint]

Picked in starting 22 for the Zebs:
Armo
Rowe

They'll get cut from seniors.
The other Saints bench guys are all on Zebs big bench

[Jacks Back]

Langlands was on the extended bench last week but got cut and now not even named. White not named. What is going on down there?

[mightysainters]

Richo at his finest.. Newnes named even as an emergency is sickening.

[fugazi]

Newnes shouldn't get a look in for 4 weeks.
White should be in and
Acres, Brown and Paton to join him on the IC

Bar Brown (who makes sense with Roos forwards) Can anyone explain to me why we would be putting more games into players that aren't the future?

No.

It is baffling. Really feel for White. White looked OK in the backline before getting injured & then helped save a game on one leg. Now it appears that he was effectively dropped??????

[darylcowie]

Brown and Newnes in for Paton and McKenzie it looks like.

I agree with Brown in for McKenzie, but I would have preferred Kanglands in for Paton.

Paton and McKenzie looked fimbly and uncertain with the ball last week, even though the game plan was clearly meant to be keepings off via safe options against the Tigers.

[darylcowie]

Langlands and fumbly I meant!

[magnifisaint]

Same old same old. You wonder how things can get better!

[saintadamski]

He'll become a really important player at another club

Newnes back in instead....nauseating

I'm not ususally a 'sack the coach' kind of guy, but this pushes me further and further in that direction.

If Newnes comes in for Paton I don't want to see a single member of our selection committee at the club in 2020.

Well here's my take .... because the game is interstate and whoever is an emergency will have to travel a miss playing this weekend altogether, it would make sense to have the younger players not named and have them playing somewhere at least.

It would be better for Newnes and Armitage to miss playing altogether.

FWIW, I don't think Newnes or Armitage will play at all unless there is a very late withdrawal.

[mad saint guy]

Disgraceful ins. Hopefully all are emergencies. The obvious change was White in for McKenzie. Langlands deserves a shot as well. I could handle them dropping McKenzie to bring in Brown and send Battle forward, but if any of the other three come in that is pure incompetence.

They're not disgraceful ... they just smack of Cho 101 as usual. If he is indeed the head of his Match Committee (usual practice for the Senior Coach) - I'm convinced he's trying to get himself sacked early.

Given that most Ins listed on a Thurs night for a Sun arvo game are just an inflated interchange bench - where's the harm in naming Langlands or heaven help us ... B White?

Just goes to show how absolutely tone deaf the Match Committee are to their rusted on fans. We all know that finals are a complete fairytale and that in reality, the next 9 weeks are a 2020 pre-season and yet, Sam Rowe. As Slobbo would say - flabberbasted.

I still haven't heard a good reason as to why B White was selected against the GCS and despite recovering from the thigh injury he sustained early - was effectively dropped thereafter. It's entirely clear to me that the photos Mav had of Cho <edited by mods> were not distribtuted to B White upon his departure.

I think that you will find that there will only be one change. Brown in. Out? Possibly DMak.
