Fair few popular rookies in the firing line this week. Any or all of Scott, Gibbons, Drew, Balta and Setterfield could get the chop. Hopefully no leftfield omissions to add to the above mentioned.
I think you are right , expecting at least 3 too be dropped , their goes cash generation again.

I think Gibbons is definitely in strife, Setterfield should keep his spot with the Blues VFL team having a bye last week.
Here's another one to add to the list

Excellent.

Melbourne’s bid to get their spluttering 2019 campaign back on track has taken a hit with star defender Neville Jetta set to be a late withdrawal for their must-win clash against Sydney at the SCG on Thursday night.

Jetta is believed to have been replaced by mature-age recruit Marty Hore, who will come in for his second game after being dropped ahead of round two.

At this stage, the exact nature of Jetta's injury is unclear.

Best news all day (re Hore playing).

Anyone game enough to have him start on field? :D

Hopefully gives enough to keep his spot!!

Melbourne could make as many as two late changes for tonight’s crunch clash against Sydney Swans.
Mature-age forward Jay Lockhart has a back issue, while gun backman Neville Jetta is also battling some soreness.
Defender Marty Hore and creative utility Charlie Spargo are on standby from the emergency list.
Lockhart and Jetta are both likely to face last-minute tests in a bid to prove their fitness before tonight’s warm-up.

He won't hold Jetta out. If Jetta is fit, he gets picked. Hes been our most reliable Def the past 3 seasons.
Is there anyone he's able to keep out? I can't help but feel this is going to be a tease that keeps us on the hook for another week or 2...

Yeah I was more thinking if he's able to do enough to make Wagner, Lockhart etc more expendable.

He doesn't even seem like for like to Jetta (who I rate massively as one of the best small defenders in the league) so hopefully it pushes a Frost or Oscar McDonald out.
