Every team has few guys out or go down during a game (except Stkilda ).
Walker, Waite, Warnock and Bower go close to Pav and a half of Sandilands with a tight hammy.
That said I can't believe Houlihan and Bentley on their Freo output, give us more than Scotland or developing Yarran or Anderson. Unless Scotland has off-field issues his omission makes no sense to me, especially as the defence is so fragile and inexperienced. We have no leader to keep the shape back there, unless T-Bird has a big day and with no Austin or Bower well I'd be using any experience I could back there.
Good luck to Harts.
I hope Ratts is the man cause lose this and excuses run thin.

Bookie, it's not like Richmond's forward line has a wealth of experience either.

Happy to see out the year before making a comment on Ratts ability to coach ot otherwise.
