Very interested to see if Frosty gets up for the game. If not I would assume Jonathon Marsh gets the nod for his debut.

isn't it normally someone from the extended interchange that gets dropped? so 3 of Dwyer, Witts, Marsh, Crisp, Broomhead, De Goey, Oxley
2
Yep, almost always. Frosty would be a late withdrawal if not available, so the emergencies will most likely be Marsh, Dwyer & probably De Goey.
2
haven't really been following Marsh - didn't we draft him as a forward?
2
He was drafted playing as a forward, but Hine always planned for him to play defence. Doesn't have the foot skills or awareness to be a forward (yet)

Originally yep, he was moved into defence not long into last season I believe. He's developed really well and was probably close to a game late last year before a nasty hamstring injury.
2
Toss up between Broomhead and De Goey I reckon, whoever misses out becomes the sub.
2
De Goey is wasted as a sub. I'd rather give him the full game in the reserves for the fitness. Broomhead is fit either way so don't mind when he is the sub.

Final teams announced, Tooves in for Broomy.

I am very interested to see if Travis Cloke will play the same role as last week, he had such a good game
