Goldy and HMac

Looks like HMac will be coming back this week, but it sounds like Scott will play him more as a forward, so shouldn't impact too much on Goldy's time in the ruck.

It does mean that Petrie won't be getting any ruck time, and could get less targets inside 50, or maybe another tall will mean less attention for Petrie.

Hopefullt this doesn't mean Pederson will get the chop

Hopefullt this doesn't mean Pederson will get the chop

would be pretty harsh given his game last week.

If anyone was to get the chop it should be lachie hansen. Useless Hack

If HMac does come back in, it is most likely that Hansen or Grima will get dropped.

McIntosh would play the majority of the game up forward, spending periods of time in the ruck when Goldy is resting. This means guys like Petrie and Pedersen don't need to spend any time in the ruck any more, which will be good for Petrie's scoring. Also puts another tall focal point up there, so there is Hmac, Petrie and Edwards so Petrie can't get triple teamed anymore.

Pedersen would be more likely to spend most of the game in defence if Hansen or Grima get dropped. May affect his scoring, but he is quite good there.

Listed as first emergency, but they also put down that it is 100th game on the team sheet....suspicious? I think he will come in.
