Maybe to build experience travelling.
I don't see a back pocket being a good sub.
Ras was held over last week so missed the peel game, need him to play some footy this weekend

Most intriguing is who is going to be the sub out of that bench, kinda has to be either Aish or JOM you'd think? Glad to see Wagner hold his spot.

Expected Wagner sub, but don't hate that he's starting. Given that 8 defenders is weird team balance wise and I just can't see us making Aish sub (or Banfield or Jaeger), I think it's 1 of 3 possibilities:
- We don't fully trust Walker fitness wise coming off his illness, so he'll be sub.
- Wagner is being played off half back because we need to be able to handle the Jordan Clark tag if it happens again, which has now been compounded in impact by having Draper and Davies.
- Aish or Wagner (more likely Aish) will play higher up the ground, perhaps in some sort of tagging capacity. Might mean Johnson is sub, which would be a bit shitty after the game he had against Gold Coast.
Just glad to see Worner out and Walker back in alongside Wags. Should have some decent bounce. Though I really wanted to see Pat Voss get another run. Him in for a managed Amiss would’ve changed things up nicely against these campaigners.

Sturt cementing himself will pay huge dividends.
Should've been
Out: Pearce and Worner
In: Walker and Erasmus because Worner is not a good candidate for sub.
Walker Davies Wagner
Clark Ryan Chapman
Sharp Young Brayshaw
Fred Jackson Switkowski
Amiss Treacy Sturt
Darcy Serong Johnson
Aish O'Meara Banfield Fyfe
Erasmus

Played his best game for the club since we selected him , and you want him out!!!
I don’t think there’s enough mids/forwards in the team for that to happen. Almost certainly going to be a defender.
Wouldn’t be surprised if it’s Brandon Walker - I wouldn’t agree with that call at all btw.
End of the day no one is expecting us to win this it’s pretty much a free hit all I want to see is us match there pressure and kick more goals then points not fussed if we lose playing well will be shit if we get flogged playing like we did against the dogs
As I said I wouldn’t agree with Walker being sub. Just got a feeling that’s what we’ll do looking at the bench.
Only way I can see it being Johnson is if Aish plays midfield minutes, which I guess he’s capable of.
Johnson should stay in - very high potential that we need really ready to go when Fyfe isn’t in the team anymore. And yes - even if we get someone like Chad Warner.
Was sub last week.
Feel like the coaches are keeping an eye on Fyfe and JOM and will sub accordingly. Pearce getting injured obviously changed that plan

My money is on Aish as sub, has the versatility to replace a mid if required to, or if Clark is being tagged out of the game, he could potentially move up to a wing and Aish slots in down back. Sub Fyfe off and rotate Johnson into inside mid role to allow Clark some Wing minutes.
