I'm going wholesale changes

Gresham and Jones out injured, Omitted - Butler, Lonie, McKernan & McKenzie (sub)

In - Marshall & Hunter, Bytel, Long (or Webster if he's ok), Kent as HF marking target, Wood to play 3rd in a tall forward line

there needs to be some reckoning in the team

King needs to find some confidence
Hill needs a wake up call
Butler needs a shake up

Whether McKernan is in or out needs to come down to whether Marshal is ready. McKernan shouldnt be a scape goat.

In: Hunter , Kent, Webster, Dunstan,

Out: Gresham, Jones (inj), Long, McKernan,

We have a short turn around for the Richmond game so will need to decide does Marshall play Sat ror Thursday , both seems a stretch.

Battle second ruck as had been exposed on the wing last 2 weeks.

B: Wilkie, Howard, Coffield
HB: Webster, Carlisle, Clark
C: Hill, Steele, Billings
HF: HIggins, Membrey, Wood
f: Kent, King, Lonie
Foll: Hunter, Crouch, Ross
Int: Dunstan, Butler, Sinclair, Battle

In: Richo returning as director of coaching and the return of hard, relentless footy and the development of young players once again - and Battle back to CHB, etc... Ratts to receive much-needed help and guidance/direction from above.
Out: Softness, laziness, mollycoddling.

Just kidding (apart from Battle back to CHB, to settle and get his development back on track) ... coaches are all as useless as one other, afaic.

I'd prefer Steele as playing-coach!

A fall over the line win, followed by a poor performance, followed by pathetic performance should mean a few players get the chop. Those who are not up to scratch with basic footy requirements -tackling, contested ball, marking etc should be worried.

However, past experience indicates “no worries” in the Saints’ favourites love-in selection process🤣

It's come to something when we look to Dean Kent for a saviour!

Only Billings, Steele, Higgins, Carlisle and Membrey should be safe from last week, but in saying that I don’t have the faith in Ratten to have the balls to make the big calls.

You seem to be blaming Long for a lot of our problems. 😂

Ins: Marshall, Kent, Bytel
Out: McKernan, Lonie or Butler, Gresham

Its time for Battle to return to defence CHB and match up on Darling.
Howard on Kennedy.
McKenzie on Ryan.
Wilkie on Allen.
Marshall to ruck changing with Carlilse forward. Both to take McGovern and keep him accountable when forward.

My guess, it'll just be Marshall and Bytel. If Webster's fit, he'll come in for DMac. Dunstan is the forgotten man. Whatever else, always plays for the jumper - but stuck in the twos.
