After a two week break from football the Whites will be pleased to get their third game of the season but will have another hard day at Tuggeranong.
First grade has a couple of changes with Danny Matthews taking over the five eighth role and Billy Chalker moving to the inside centre. Hopefully this will mean more ball going to crack outside back JR Morgan. In the forwards Ryan Jones is out injured with the aggressive Lewis Bozzato getting a chance that he thoroughly deserves. He can get under the skin of the opposition and he is very strong over the ball.
Brumby prop Les Leulua’iali’i-makin is expected to make his first appearance this season which should add to the scrum stability.
In other good news regular first grade hooker Carl Elliott is back from injury and will clock up minutes in reserve grade.
Tuggers of course have more than enough class players and are strong favourites for the John I. Dent Cup and could even boast an all grades tilt at premiership titles.
Fourths start at 10.55 followed by the thirds and colts at 12.15, seconds at 1.40 and a slightly later start for firsts at 3.25 at Erindale.
