    The Cows have a mini-crisis with wounded midfielders (Brouch, Hall, Hannebery, Prestia). Whoever we are playing this week should feel quietly confident. Oh, it's Jelly Guy - so much for the "quiet" bit. :p Tentative team
    D - Hibbo, J McGovern, Burton, Morrison - Byrne
    M - Mitchell, Fyfe, Newman, Howe - Allison
    R - S Jacobs
    F - Menegola, McLean, Papley, M Robinson - Parfitt
    I/C - M Wood, J Dunkley - B Williams

    The game is on most certainly, though the pre match sausage sizzle has been canceled ....

    So nice that all the guys who swapped between our teams during the off season will get to catch up with former teammates. Hopefully no one kicks the wrong way early on!

    Meanwhile due to having up to four Richmond players - Rance, Astbury, Shed, Caddy - running around for me on Thursday, I'm utterly unsure of my team right now. Would say Rance and Caddy will definitely get a run, Astbury might end up on as an emergency and Shed could be on interchange.

    We'll see.

    While you are at it, if Ceglar doesn't get named (and I don't think he will), you can put a fork in me... I'll be done!

    *gets pumped for another ORFFA season
    *opens ts leagues and realises is 2 yrs into 5 yr rebuild
    *slumps dejectedly into Patrick Stewart pose

    Any other opponent would be licking their lips at the thought of facing the reigning premier sans Hall, Prestia and Crouch.
    Alas, chels gets a free hit this week (as do most teams) as we continue our soul-destroying rebuild.

    Provisional half a team that might line up if all the stars and planets align...

    Def - Brayshaw, McKenzie, Duryea, Perryman (Wagner)
    Mid - Ross, Phillips, Weller, Berry (Atley)
    Ruck - Cameron
    Fwd - Mathieson, Hayward, Daicos, K Langford (Broomhead oop)
    I/C - Dumont, Shipley (Ainsworth)

    Cradle Mountain Devils Round 1 2018 team vs Marble Bar Misfits

    New: Paul Seedsman – drafted as a free-agent at the 2018 PSD

    Def: - M Hurley, J Lever, N Vlastuin, P Seedsman (A Naughton)
    Mid: - S Pendlebury, D Zorko, D Heppell, D Zaharakis (S Grigg)
    Ruck: T Nankervis
    Fwd: C Pedersen, T Membrey, J Gresham, A McDonald-Tipungwuti (J Roughead OOP)
    Int: J Steele, J Redden (Z Jones)

    Cradle Mountain are close to full strength, only missing one automatic selection in Tom Lynch who is injured with a side strain. New recruit Liam Picken who would have been in contention for the F4 spot is out indefinitely with concussion. Another of the Devils new mature age recruits from the PSD in Paul Seedsman makes his club debut at D4. We expect a very tight contest with the Misfits who comfortably accounted for the Devils in week 1 of the 2017 finals.

    Crap, I've only just learned that Hill and Adams are injured and won't play. Clearly not paying any attention to pre-season injuries.

    I'll enter my final team in league page and replicate it below. I think I'll just have all my Richmond guys play from last night - less confusing.

    Hopefully Hill can come back soon, apparently Adams won't be back for quite a while - that's what I get for forgetting to put him in my provisional side in the first place!

    DEF: Rance, May, Savage, Adams (Astbury)
    MID: Coniglio, Goddard, Newnes, Lyons (Lewis)
    RUCK: Z Smith
    FWD: Caddy, Walters, Gunston, Brown (Jack)
    I/C: Hoskin-Elliott, Hill (Edwards)

    Late change for the Blimps- Jack comes back in for Brown, who will apparently be swimming in wet conditions up on the Gold Coast on the weekend.
