Gonna bench Dusty too, probably in the forward line. Hopefully it's only a week that he misses.

I'm interested to know what you're gonna do with Houston? Keep for now?

I'm tempted to do one of the below:
1. Straight swap to Howe (have doubts on him keeping his scoring rate this high)

or

2.
Houston --> def rookie,
B.Cavarra --> C.Petracca (will he keep playing midfield and attending centre bounces?) or Rozee (if Wines comes back, how will it effect his scoring?)

The second scenario will be torn up if Sturt is named.
Still deciding. I've got Dusty and Greene problems in the Fwd line.
He's not safe (Houston), but he might survive, this week anyway.

I put bennel straight field last week. Only 50% game time. I would expect something similar with Hill. Sturt and Rivers on the bubble as you Know.? Both seem to have solid JS for a few weeks.?
I don't know much about Rivers and how he fits in at Melbourne. Would he have better job security vs scoring vs injury risk then Hill and Williamson?

Sooo... Richmond and Collingwood both looked slow and sluggish last week - people seemed to put it down to a dewy night and first game back whatevers (?).

Hawthorn were smashed by Geelong but they are making the Tigers look second rate at the moment.
