Just 1 more week of the byes to get through and it’s a tougher one but manageable with some rookie options coming through.
Butler and Liddy look like the best 2 options this week. Butler has had a decent role on his return to the side getting some time in the midfield and should have a place in the team long term. Liddy has been pretty impressive and if he can avoid the sub role then he will be a good downgrade target.
Allan and Ramsden are 2 more options if needed but their job security is riskier. Allan probably is the better of the 2 with his recent performances. Ramsden might’ve done enough to hold his spot but long term he may not. Especially with Mitch Lewis fit again and could be back in 2-3 weeks if he gets through the VFL injury free.
