Sam McClure tells us that Chris Yarran could be available this week, as the ankle injury may not be as bad as first expected

Play Buckley up forward and his career is over. Played most of his early football there and struggled. Would of been cut until he was moved back and showed some promise.
Leave the kid in a back pocket for the rest of the year and watch him develop. Like many others just needs a consistent run at it.
He's a high half forward type; he's had his defensive apprenticeship and is running to the right spots more often; deserves another go. Was playing as a lead-up option during the time you're describing. Completely different player now, hunting the ball off the deck and making great runs for the receive.
He'll be a great midfielder for us.

He'd need to be elevated in place of Sheehan ABNS, which might not be the best move given Giles is on track to return off the LTI list in rounds 14-16, and is responsible for Byrne's senior elevation.
I don't think he'll spark our forward line at all to be honest; would rather see Fields, Walsh or Gowers come in.
Obviously we're scraping the bottom of the barrel now, and I don't invest much hope in Johnson, but when I look at last night's side the first thing I want to do is rip Jones out of it.
We need a mobile lead up target who will compete hard consistently, fight to keep the ball in our forward line, tackle, chase. Watson doesn't tick enough of those boxes, so who else is there? Let's not rush Kreuzer back. Johnson has a bit of Simon Wiggins about him and at least he will scrap and try. I guess the same could be said of Holman, but we don't need another tagger.
I get your point about Byrne taking Sheehan's spot as an elevated rookie with Giles (hopefully) returning to the field in about a month. Is anyone about to go onto the LTI? Hopefully not, but how serious are the injuries to Gibbs & Menzel? Maybe we'll have a mid season retirement (Judd? Carrazzo?).
Walker comes to mind, as does Buckley, Smith and Boekhorst. I'd rather see some of those names in the mix.
not sure - watched yaz closely and he has a serious attitude problem - and seemed to wander around looking for someone to whack; clearly a walking time bomb......but I also wondered if mick has taken his runni8ng flair away and a turned hjim into the sulker he looks............
