Something tells me we should care more in 7 weeks. If these guys need a rest who gives a dam about this weeks game.

Are you sure you feel that way?!

How would you feel if we were not in PERFECT condition come September? I think you'll regret that post in a few weeks...

(PS We might still win :) )

When they created LENNY HAYES (in the shadow of Harvs) they forgot to break the mold (again)- hence the Supremely Incredible Jack Steven!!

happy with the side. . . taking a zero risk policy is best for everyone.

if we lose we lose . . .no big deal . . . we are in the position to rest players next 3 weeks and i dare say we will be rotating players in and out for the next few weeks now.

as for goddard and hayes (everyone has niggles this time of year) no biggy . .

we are playing three ruckman than arent we?

i am all in favour of giving major players(goddard, hayes, riewoldt, montagna)
a rest before the finals we are already certain to finish top 2
So give other players ago to see if they are up to it if they are needed for the finals!

Its clearly all about player management from now until the finals....I'd expect big changes again next week to keep the players fresh for september

This is incomplete.

There should be 8 INs as this is only an indicative squad of 25 (for a Sunday game) with the selected 22 and emergencies named tomorrow.
We play Saturday unless you know something we dont.

very disappointing for tassie fans.

Look forward all year to this game in Tas and now this

4 marquee players rested.

Can understand from a club view but still disappointed :(

Its a bit over the top, its just giving away 4 points, plain and simple. Oh well, I begrudgingly agree, if you need a rest you need a rest.

Personally I'm excited by this. Gives the team a bit of a freshen up and certainly gives us less to lose this weekend.

Can see the lineup looking somewhat like so:

FB: S.Dempster - M.Hudghton - J.Blake
HB: S.Fisher - Z.Dawson - R.Clarke
C: J.Gram - L.Ball - F.Ray
HF: J.Gwilt - J.Koschitzke - A.Schneider
FF: S.Milne - M.Gardiner - A.McQualter
R: S.King - C.Jones - N.Dal Santo
I/C: B.McEvoy - J.Geary - R.Eddy - J.Steven


That can still be a winning side.

No Armitage. You'd think his best chance to break into the side is gone.
