Ins and outs will be very weather dependent.

I'd like to see Miles in, but only if it is wet. Not sure what Townsend is like for pace, but I think Miles would be exposed for a lack of it at a dry Subi. That being said, I can see the hierarchy bringing in Miles for a game which he isn't suited for after leaving him out of a game he was tailor made for. Maybe bring Graham in if he is quicker than Miles/Townsend.

I'd keep C.Ellis in if it is a dry track. We should aim for pace at Subi. I'd also keep Soldo to ruck if it is dry and play Nank as the 2nd tall forward. My dream would be to see Rioli pushed into the middle for as much time as his endurance permits for this game. But I am guessing we are too close to the finals for an experiment.

Houli out but not sure who to bring in. Markov, I reckon the old second year blues have hit here, so not sure if it is an upgrade. Short I guess, but not at all confident about filling this spot.

FWIW, I think Caddy going out might be a blessing in disguise for this game. I think Lennon is a more likely player at Subi.

Mrs Hardwick would.

Forgot to list Menadue as a possible inclusion.

CEllis is slow as a wet week. No thanks, worst on ground by a mile today and that includes esteemed company such as Soldo and Houli. Will hopefully not play another game in 2017

Unfortunately I have never seen him play live. Bit hard to tell on TV. Just ask Greg Miller.

Trust me, there's nothing unfortunate about having not seen CEllis play live thus far...

Out: Caddy (inj), Cellis (softer than melted butter), Castagna (rest), Butler (rest) Houli (just not good enough when the heat is on)

In: Miles, Bolton, Graham and Lennon (needs a chance) Short (for Houli).

Houli needs to be dropped been so poor along with Grigg.I want to see Short and Menadue in that lineup even Markov we need some more pace.
