Stkilda VS adelaide teams

[st_Trav_ofWA]

be a shame to drop the likes of jones armatage and allen concidering they did so well to get the team to the cup i reckon if we top up with our starting 22 we will find it harder to win then if we run the kiddies

Pretty sure Allen will play. Has done well in 2 out of 3 games.

Who knows? I wouldn't be annoyed if he did.....

My thinking was just along the lines of balancing the side. With Kosi, Max and Chips back we can't really afford not to drop a tall or two from last week? Allen has been played forward and with Roo and Kosi up there, will there be room for Allen? We can always rest one of our rucks up forward if we want some extra height during certain periods of the game. It's really a question of who else misses to keep Allen in the side.

Just out of interest plugger 66 cause i generally value your opinion, if it were round 1 this Saturday night what 22 would you go with?

Do you say that because our 'starting 22' is not match fit? If so, then we better get some game time into them because Saturday night is the last chance before the season proper.

If it's not an issue of match fitness then saying that playing all the kids will give us a better chance, is paramount to saying they are actually in our best 22........

Re Fiora being lucky

I just think he is a bit off this year , though I was very pleased with his 2007.

Re Birss He is improving


I just hope the Saints are quick enough , so I would have Jones instaed of Fiora

[Lenny_Hayes7]

So you don't think Fiora is quick?

[aussiejones]

I rate Fiora , but at this point would rather Jones .

Fiora exceeded all expectations last year under RL.

Lets just see ,

no more to do with the desperation i said it last week how the kids are bringing a new life to the club i think the "old" guard are a little complacent and rely on someone else to do the job for them where as the kids just wanna have a crack at it

Lets just see ,

from my observations Fizz is kinda stuck in the middle hes not the top shelf seasoned player and hes not the flashy excitement rookie player anymore . he kinda looks outa place at the moment

Remember Rutten got injured mid-game when we beat the crows last year, it was actually the turning point of the game. Commentators were saying he had not missed a single minute of gametime for something like 16 games in a row.
