Had his appendix out, still recovering. Definitely no moon boot, unless his appendix was in his foot.

Couple of weeks away.

Be interesting to see how Browne goes...

Would have to be close to our round 1 side with King out for Conca.

Browne and Arnott out too. Still think Morris will get a game, must shine this week though..

Why are we playing (risking) Cotchin and Martin ? They looked a million bucks last week....why do they need another gallop ?

All clubs are trying to get a set amount of total game time (= total minutes) into players; would think thati s why they are playing. Remebering last week was the first full game they've played this pre-season only played halves up to that point

Best to give then a fair run of form before they hit round one. Sure there's a risk but no more than playing multiple weeks in a row during the season proper. Also, in terms of Cotch and Martin, Dimma would be keen to finally play Lids along side them so they have a better understanding of each others game, where they fit, what combinations suit best etc.

They still have 12 days left between this game and the season opener to get over any minor niggles. The benefits outweigh the potential risks at this stage. They should be fine.

Also, didn't Dusty and Cotch only play a half against Freo and 3 quarters against Geelong?  Building up to a full game's match fitness maybe?

Grimes, Rance, Ellis
Morris, Post, Batchelor
Foley, Deledio, Edwards
A Maric, Vickery, King
Nahas, Miller, Jackson
Browne, Arnot, Tuck

Newman, Houli, Martin, Cotchin, I Maric, Reiwoldt, Grigg

This is the line up I would play against West Sydney ...

Deledio plays 50% match time and I would play our "good players" 40% match time ...
