He may have been dropped but not played in the twos so as to keep Collingwood guessing?

Or he might be dropped and be the non playing emergency. We’ll find out soon

Dow and Polson in
SpS and Cottrell out

Probably the first time a Polson inclusion doesn't result in a collective eye roll. Has been killing it in the backline from all reports.

Shame for Cottrell, I sense he would've loved playing Collingwood.

Time for SPS to have a break and Paddy to get his shot.

Cunningham played in the practice match against GC. No mention of Kennedy, Dow or Cottrell.

Kennedy also played in the practise match against GC. Assuming No. 7 was him!

Yeah, that looked like him.
Maybe it'll be Kennedy and SPS out for Dow and Polson or just Kennedy for Dow.

Kennedy didn't play last week

I don't mind it. As long as Dow plays midfield

Agree. SPS has been useless in the backline. Need to give him a couple of weeks in the 2s, play him on ball and just let him hunt the ball then bring him back as a mid/HFF. We’ll destroy him if we just continue playing him back and there’s absolutely no point playing him in his current form. Can’t believe I’m okay with Polson getting another go, but it sounds like he’s earned it and it’s in a different position.

Dow was the absolute must pick this week. I think he’s ready to become the player we drafted him to be. And yes we need to give him time on ball to show what he can do

Polson on Daicos perhaps. Cottrell has been ok but sounds like Dow deserves a crack.

What will we learn about Polson?

Excellent inclusions. I agree with the outs.

This is his absolute last chance. Career on the line. Good luck to him

I've got a feeling the Filth will come out very aggressive lead by Grundy, Adams, Maynard and Mihocek. Wouldn't surprise me if there is a scuffle or 2. They've been wound up all week by there Pres.
As long as we focus on the ball and keep it close until half-time then I reckon we'll smash em in the 2nd half and run away with a nice 43 point victory lead by Crippa of course and Levi up forward !!

That would make more sense then.

Dow named on the ball. Doesn’t mean a whole lot but it’s good to see there’s some intent to give him midfield time
