I like all the ins, put Balta back, drop Georgie and lets get MRJ creating some forward pressure for a change.
“I find it nearly impossible to make those judgments, but he is certainly up there with the really important ones, he is certainly up there with the Francis Bourkes and the Royce Harts and the Kevin Bartlett and the Kevin Sheedys, there is no doubt about that,” Balme said.

They've named Balta at full back

Can’t complain with that. Some quality ins and some youth and aggression in stack and mrj. Let’s go!
Pleasantly surprised no aarts too. A sign we are looking to the future ?

I reckon this is our best team of this season.

Missed an opportunity here to debut at least 2 maybe 3 players. Banks, Clarke and Sonsie coming in would have given a lot of excitement to Tigers supporters.

Biggy should tell Dimma to stick it where the sun don’t shine

We are going in too slow for Optus.

Soldo, Nank, Lynch and Riewoldt - it will be a disaster

Good changes, Mansell a bit stiff.

Might be a couple too many to drop Edwards and Castagna but I am just thrilled there's no Aarts to come in.

Good inclusions and ours as well given their poor showing last week. Would have liked fonzie in, but I suspect it’s a debit against the pies with Dusty.

Overall pleased.
