Even though we will be a bit top heavy I suspect this is the match where we will see 3 ruckmen. You can't drop Hampson after his effort on Sunday. Also Warnock has been dominating hit-outs ... Kreuzer may be ready to return and with the absence of Waite I reckon they will recall the big K to play up forward ahead of Casboult.

So Carrots, Kreuz and Gibbs in.
Out Ellard, Waite and Yarran

If Kruez not ready ... then Casboult in.
If Yarran ok ... then Cachia out.

The other choice if Kreuz ready would be to drop Warnock and recall Casboult.

Who would know with this MC? ... Tom Bell has been dominating with the Northern Blues and he can't get a game.

Marcus Davies (hamstring) - TBC

Immediate inclusion if available.

For those who didn't see it, in Malthouse's post-match press conference he was giving Hampson alot of praise...I doubt he'll be dropped.

Would love to see Casboult come in though, Cachia get a full game and Menzel to be the sub.

In: Menzel, Mitchell, Casboult, Kreuzer, Gibbs, Carrazzo, Laidler, Bell, Clinton Benjamin
Out: Whoever we don't like this week.

Clinton Benjamin could provide good run............

I don't think Menzel is ready and especially for a must-win game against the Saints.

Would love Cachia to stay in (drop Ellard if Carrazzo is fit), and bring in Casboult for Waite.

Agree that Hammer wont be dropped.

I wouldn't bet on that ech.

He has praised others who didn't get in, like mentoning Mitchell when he seemed way off form to be considered, but then again Hampson is in the 18 and his 2nd half may have helped his cause.

Who knows what MM's instructions to Hammer was.

In previous rounds when I supported the inclusion of Hammer it was his ability to make a distant contest and bring the ball to ground which I admired and put it down to his speed.

I don't know what to think about Hammer any more. I've stuck my neck out for him or years now, but his first half last week, coupled with his hard hands and having lost his kicking boot gives me the jitters.

I like the form Casboult showed last year before the knee and his preseason form was good too.
He also seems to have stepped up in the reserves in the last 2 rounds.

In regards to Hampson, if Kreuzer comes back one of Hamspon or Warnock will be dropped. Who is it? You can't play them all even if we say "they can't be dropped". They certainly can be unfortunate as that may be. No ifs or buts there. 3 ruckmen is a proven recipe for disaster. None of them are key forwards bumholes. We've learnt that painfully. i have no wish "learn" it again.

kruezer is good but if they decide for just 2 ruckman and people are saying hampson played well and must stay well then kruzer can run around for the NB for a week or 2.

Ins: Davenport, Athorn, Harford, Mott, Kerr, Vance

Outs: Judd, Murph, Waite, Betts, Henderson, Garlett
