Predicting Atkins OUT hey! :eek:

Geez I hope not otherwise so much for all that talk here last week that he could be a season long keeper. :LOL:

Thoughts on the likelihood of Gulden/Campbell/Warner being rested?
Warner I think is very unlikely.

Gulden I think is unlikely, while Heeney was fit I thought Hayward could come in to spell him for a week but not he's in anyway so unlikely, he's our best forward with Buddy and Heeney out so be gutsy to drop him.

Campbell definitely a chance but at the same time I'm not sure you rest him against an opponent where he'd play on someone his own age and a good chance to get some confidence up even if I think GC are a very good chance of winning.

Would think that McInerney should be the first one out for Rowbottom but definitely could make a case for Campbell there but they're not like for like.

With Rampe already out I'm not sure if we want to unsettle the back six any more.

Definitely an interesting period, would think they're back in next week if they do get rested though. All 3 are too good to waste time in reserves with, imo. Especially when we're playing guys like McInerney, Wicks, Rowbottom, Florent, Cunningham, Hewett and Hayward instead who've all basically established themselves as limited players with far less potential (Rowy might still have something but the rest pretty much are what they are at this point).

Based on the weekends performance, he should be safe even with Lewis and Gunston to come back in.
O'Brien and Nash go out without second thought for mine. Jeka pressing his case with great VFL form, but Kosi should still see more games to eek out more coin.
Really need him this game with ridley out and highmore unlikely.

Hoping Atkins doesn't get dropped. Praying for Flynn and Clark to get named

IF Kelly plays down back it’s just further proof of Nathan’s state of mind.

Howe is out so Darcy needs to move back. Obvious. Right.?

I think Darcy could be a 'horses for courses' type of player, to make use of his talents depending on the opposition. If Cox was a better player, I think Nathan would play Darcy solely in defence.
