Reid out, Broomhead in.

Going with a small forward line if Moore isn't moved.

Not a single first choice forward playing.

News is Toby Greene out of Giant lineup

Don't think anyone should be happy that Cox is missing now. We''ll be relying heavily on Crocker. Not confident.

Oh my God.We are literally playing without a forward line.

Midfielders need to dominate if we have any chance of winning today.

The absence of Greene is a big one for the Giants.

Excellent opportunity to give McLarty an opportunity I would have thought though it would have been a tough ask without Reid or Cox for support.

Reid dropped as many marks as he took last week and if it wasn't for the far worse performance from Cox his game would have garnered more negative attention.

Greene missing certainly cancels out the loss of Reid in terms of talent but he doesn't impact the GWS structure like Reid.

We're going for an ultra small forward line but with most of our best small to medium forwards still out it's not a great moment for this experiment to occur.

why the heck wouldn't you put McLarty in with Reid out I don't know. If Grundy and Moore have to share ruck duties and be a CHB and a key forward between them - we are one injury away from a total embarrassment. The selection committee are on something .......FFS!!

That is the worst forward line Coll has ever named.
I've said that before.
Which makes this one ever more horrible.
Here's hoping we can crack ten goals today!

I can't see where we can kick a winning score with our depleted forward line.

Mihocek was drafted as insurance you could argue and we haven't elected to break the glass.

In:Mihocek, McLarty

Out:Reid (inj), Varcoe

Think I would have preferred a more balanced side in terms of height.

Broomhead instead of McLarty for Reid.

Bucks = Clueless

Surely one of Moore or Howe will start forward?

The team is really missing fasolo, Elliott, de goey, greenwood, wells, we just never ever have our best side on the park, tragic really. Just gotta hope we have a great day out, and GWS have a shit one, we do go well against them, but our forward line looks depleted. Just hope and pray, and hope I guess. !!
