Thanks for that mate, I had a funny feeling I left one out

All changed now, just not sure of any OUTS from the side as yet because of the bye last week.

[PhilH]

For sturt Sharples was read as the one out so far, squad of 23 named.

Surely no one could match us for the number of 'Ryan' s in the side.

So did West Adelaide.

Westies would be the early favourites for this game. playing the better footy at the moment.

Good try....

Sturt had a training camp up there in Feb so the ground wont be unfamiliar for them

Brad Vassal is playing his first league game for Sturt, been in the squad the past few weeks but gets a crack this week according to my sources

[MST]

The side has a much more balanced look to it with the inclusions of Coad & Reilly, although it remains to be seen if he travels as an emergency with the Crows.

Vassal will add some toughness around the stoppages. Good luck to him he has played some good, consistent footy in the reserves and deserves his chance.

I am very interested in how Sturt come out in the first quarter. The last two performances have lacked spark and this has been reflected in the performances. A switched on, hopefully freshened up outfit should see them have too many options for West. I expect West to have a real good crack at it though and if Sturt are a way below their best an upset is not out of the equation.

Jimmy Plant would be hoping to be included in the Sturt side so he could play on the Waikerie oval again after being a part of Waikerie's 2007 Riverland Premiership side.
