Saints

In: C.Jones, L.Miles, R.Stanley, R.Eddy, T.Simpkin, A.McQualter
Out: Z.Dawson (Inj), T.Lynch, J.Steven

Jones = certainty..

One of Simpkin or Miles very likely...

One of Stanley, Mini or Eddy... Mini nmaed on HF..so seems likely...but Edy named in BP...

[plugger66]

So Eddy and Mini are playing. Looks like Geary out, Zac and Steven. So you would think CJ will play if fit. Looks like we are going small.

[Con Gorozidis]

im gutted. smith should be ahead of mcqualter and eddy. and ross is just in love with eddy.

hope simpkin gets to debut. ill be rapt.

[bergholt]

McQualter straight back into the side after a poor Sandy performance? Lynch dropped after only one week? I disagree with those two decisions.

[Ralphy]

Hopefully Miles, is in.

[3rd generation saint]

Mini and Eddy are not named as interchange, so one would think that they are likely inclusions.
Would like to see Eddy given a specific roll, ie Bakers job, think he could make a success of it.

[GoTheTorp]

Eddy was very good at Sandy last week so no surprise there.

R.Stanley, T.Simpkin, L.Miles i think may be the reserves.

[bigcarl]

I'm disappointed they didn't persevere with Steven.

He'll be a very, very good player down the track.

I hope he works on whatever it is that he did or didn't do and is back in time for the finals.

[plugger66]

Hopefully Miles, is in.

Why. His form isnt great and kicking is poor. Would rather Simpkin but dont think we are getting either.

McQualter straight back into the side after a poor Sandy performance? Lynch dropped after only one week? I disagree with those two decisions.

lynch got pushed around by the essendon midgets last week the power are stronger more seasoned players i reckon its for his own good he got dropped ... gives him a taste of AFL footy for next year

[InkerSaint]

IN: Harding, Logan, Pittard, Thomas
OUT: Nick Salter (calf)

If Pittard makes the final cut it will be his AFL debut.

Pittard was drafted with no. 16, the Saints' pick that was traded to Essendon in the Lovett deal that then went to Port via a 3-way trade involving Hawthorn, with Jay Nash, Mark Williams, and Shaun Burgoyne.

[Milan Faletic]

I reckon Mini, CJ and Eddy will be the final ins.

His Dad actually played 48 games for us in the late 50's and 60's. John McMillan.

[bergholt]

I reckon Mini, CJ and Eddy will be the final ins.

i like them, but that would be one of the lowest quality trios you can get, ignoring their work-rate.

[st_Trav_ofWA]

I'm disappointed they didn't persevere with Steven.

He'll be a very, very good player down the track.

I hope he works on whatever it is that he did or didn't do and is back in time for the finals.

hes played a few on the trot so maybe we are trying to not put too much on him early in his carreer ? he is a player so he might force his way back into the team by time the finals start

[SainterK]

McQualter straight back into the side after a poor Sandy performance? Lynch dropped after only one week? I disagree with those two decisions.

Think both decisions have to do with defensive pressure...

Maybe we have it wrong, and Mini was just rested, like Jones and Dal before him? Dunno...

[Con Gorozidis]

lets be honest. that 22 cant win us a flag.

well need zac to get back to his best and bakes to be at his best. And we need to take risks and try smith and simpkin. find out if they are up to it before september.

cos if we just go in to september with the same old 22 we cant win it.

and we are no certs for this week either.

[stinger]

no....Out: Z.Dawson (Inj), T.Lynch, J.Steven...

[SaintTom]

It looks like CJ, Eddy and Mini in, but I'm very, very surprised Simpkin isn't. More to do with the fact that, why elevate him so soon if he wasn't going to be used this week?

[plugger66]

So Eddy and Mini are playing. Looks like Geary out, Zac and Steven. So you would think CJ will play if fit. Looks like we are going small.

no....Out: Z.Dawson (Inj), T.Lynch, J.Steven...

Yes I missed Lynch. I made an error. It isnt that hard to say. Maybe you should try it after all the basic ones you have made lately.

Speak to you soon pot kettle black.
