James Harmes was ruled out for six weeks while we got some reassurances about James Jordon, plus Tanner Bruhn’s job security got worse with the GWS Giants confirming the availability of two small forwards.
TEAM NEWS
Ins: Z.Williams, Martin, Sidebottom, C.Brown
Outs: J.Silvagni, O’Brien, O.Henry, Ruscoe
Bad news for Oliver Henry (AF $228k SC $135k FWD) owners with him dropped, although all is not lost as he’s among the emergencies so he could be the medical sub.
Zac Williams (AF $626k SC $458k DEF) and Steele Sidebottom (AF $841k SC $588k FWD) are big inclusions.
UPDATES
Melbourne confirmed James Harmes (AF $489k SC $344k DEF) will miss six games after suffering a wrist injury in Melbourne’s win over Fremantle.
Dees coach Simon Goodwin also spoke to the media about Angus Brayshaw (AF $603k SC $435k MID) and Jack Viney (AF $720k SC $534k MID), with fears they’ll replace James Jordon (AF $207k SC $123k MID).
TOMORROW
Coaches Leon Cameron, David Noble, Ben Rutten and Matthew Nicks will all speak to the media while the teams for Friday’s Geelong-Brisbane game will be named. Round 2 will also start with Carlton-Collingwood from 7:20pm AEDT.
