Thoughts on Saturdays team mine is
De vires
Janko
Eric
Boyata
issy
Patrick if fit
Johansen
Biton
Armstrong or GMS if fit
Christie
Cifti
With Fasan, Ralston, MaCart, Simo, Henderson, Miller, Crossan or Nesbitt on Bench
Also i hope we take the irn bru cup seriously and include as many eligible players as possiblein team.

You do realise it's a league game and not a friendly this sat? Haha, see why your changing it but got to keep players in there.
I'd go:
Gordon
Janko oconnell erik tierney
Christie bitton brown Sinclair
Dembele griff
No need to risk dropping points early in and risking players back from injury too early (de vries, Roberts etc)
Hail hail.

It looks like you've tried to pick the team with the least match sharpness and fitness. In my opinion it's the worst selection that could be picked.
18 Aug 2016 21:13:12
I agree 91bhoy, we can't afford to make too many changes for Perth . It's a must win game for us and there is no point in messing about too much with selection . Maybe 3/ 4 changes but no more .
18 Aug 2016 21:17:37
Am I missing something? Why isn't Toure in either of your teams? 😳.
18 Aug 2016 21:52:43
Got to disagree jonace. understand your logic but for me put the strongest team available out! Keep the momentum going into Tuesday! My team is Gordon janko Erik oconnel
Tierney brown rogic Sinclair Forrest griff dembele. only leaving lustig and toure out to save there legs for Tuesday!

guaranteed that there will be at least 5 changes for starting X1 for St J match
i do think the majority of those will however be on the bench (IE a selection of those who did start on wednesday)
I think Toure for Erik
Sinclair for Roberts with Forrest switching
armstrong for mcgregor
brown for johanssen
and de vries for gordon.
19 Aug 2016 01:22:22
Got to be a full team out.
19 Aug 2016 03:37:57
Full team no ifs no buts, winning the is more important than anything.
19 Aug 2016 08:54:36
I think big Doris might start the 2nd leg if fit.
19 Aug 2016 10:55:42
Toure is a must start for me in the play off next week so with him playing so little and playing catch up with the squad I'd give him a rest and see how erik gets on tomorrow. Is it just me or should Christie be given a chance ahead of Armstrong given recent performances? Big fan of SA but seems to be well below rest of squad.

I would definitely include christie on the bench at very least. He was immense via inter, however on merit Forrest and Sinclair deserve to start. Also think Biton will start needs more game time. Roberts from bench. Go 442 with
Gordon
Janko Toure Oconnell Tierney
Forrest Brown Biton Sinclair
Griffiths Dembele
Christie Roberts Rogic Erik McGregor DeVries, Lustig. Its reassuring to have such a strong bench regardless of 11 who start. HH.
