Marchbank may not come up pending how his shoulder pulls up.

Melbourne are great in open space and can be exposed under pressure. Swans strangled them to death and they were pretty meak in their recovery.

With mounting injuries, our depth is going to be tested.

Coming down with my young bloke for this one. His second live game. And his first jumper.

Both Marchbank & Weitering looked sore to me. Hopefully COS is available because I think he'll be needed.

That would mean Jones, White & COS all in the same backline, which would have caused me to shudder 3 months ago but doesn't seem so awful now....

Dees will have a heap of good players out too. We should go in favourites IMO.

Viney, Tyson, Jones, Salem, Watts, Hogan, Bugg to name a few.

If Marchbank doesn't come up, has Macreadie's form in the VFL been ok? If not him, who else? Go small in defence with Buckley in for Marchbank? I'm not familair with the Dee's forwards.

Can we request particular umpires?

White is underestimated on here. He had a very solid game yesterday again. He is never going to be an all Australian half back but he is always going to give you his best effort and that's often good enough.

They have this great small forward who loves open space and has a lot of pace and party tricks. Keep an eye out for him.

Interesting to see how many young blokes we have for this one given how "tough" the Dees are.

We're running out of tall defenders. Bolton seemed to think Marchbank would be right for next week. If not, Jaksch???
