Astbury still has injury niggles.  Taylor isn't fit enough yet.  Webberley and Dea should be blooded against Sydney.

Astbury - fair enough

Taylor - who cares, he would be better value then Nahas

Webberley - Yep!

Dea - Yep!

just play them ASAP!

praying for Griffiths to be 100% fit!

Foley is going to make a massive impact to our midfield, i can see it!

Taylor didn't play last weekend - so you woulkd think he is no chance

Astbury was at a pre-match on Sunday and said he was coming back from injury and buidling up his game time ... so no chance  ;D

Webberley is next in line IMHO

I know they weren't great in the Coburg practise match, but I'd like to see Browne & Graham come in for Simmo and an under performing small like Nahas. We are in dire need of height, Simmo is a liability and with 3 ruckmen on the ground they will be able to rotate around to give long enough breaks for them to play out the match. A big ruckman down in the forward line will straighten us up a bit too.

Does this mean Astbury is right to play for the Burgers again this weekend WP?
Because I was a bit worried when I saw him near the end of the game last Saturday with his foot in a bucket of ice-water.

No need to rush too many kids. I don't think Dea is quite ready yet. Astbury and Taylor probably need a couple of runs at Coburg for fitness. I'd like to see Roberts back in because we missed a crumbing forward. King and Nahas to make way for Roberts and Cousins. We need an experienced player in there
