Mr Fuller wrote:Would that player be either Stewart or Angus MickyJ? I would not be surprised if either were elevated, especially Stewart as he has been close to selection all year and been in brilliant form all year. Angus has been great up forward lately and gives flexibility of also being able to play down back.
As much as it is good to see Fuller play youngsters I really hope he does not play Fairclough because at this point in time I don't think he contributes enough yet to hold his place.
Our match-ups on Schell and Cowan are vital. We have been shown time and time again Pedler simply CANNOT be put on Cowan due to being too short. Not sure if Schell would be the right matchup for him either. McGregor would be a fantastic addition but not sure he will play?
How did the eagles reserves go on the weekend?

From the reserves players that played last week, I would imagine only Salter, Earl and of course the Crows players plus Westbrook would be picked in the league team at some stage during the finals. Angus and Frewen didn't play in the Elimination Final last weekend. P Stewart is a bit light framed at this stage and J Stewart I don't think is up to league standard.
I agree with you re Colville mickyj. I reakon his close checking as either a tagger on the ball or as a back pocket is where he is most useful to the team at this stage of his career. Him and Peter Fiacchi could probably swap on the ball and play similar roles.
As for Fairclough, I would have no problem having him in the starting 21, but with the players to come back into the side he may be unlucky. The goal he scored against North was crucial and he plays and has a body far more mature than his age suggests.
Who gets Cowan if McGregor isn't playing? McKenzie? Other options could be Pedler or bring Salter into the team. With the job Hier did on Waterhouse, I think he would be the best match up on Schell. Pedler and Hall have been too slow in the past.

You can see I missed the two's finalre Frewn and Angus
Earl has been mentioned and Spencer has been playing good footy as well .
As I said we will have to wait and see who gets in the team that we dont expect .

What I mean is, that players like Shattock - 19 games, Skipworth - 11, Vince - 8 and Knights - 5 have all played a reasonable amount for football with the Eagles this year.

WWT have played AFL listed players in previous finals campaigns and they haven't got them over the line. And the players who go MIA are still there...
