There’s no doubt about the quality of players pushing for selection at VFL level, but the question is; Who should be dropped?
All will be answered Thursday afternoon but for now, here are the main contenders for a call-up.
Have your say on this week's possible ins and outs by filling in the form below.
Warren Benjamin
Benjamin has been a steady improver so far this season. After spending much of 2009 in the VFL reserves, he's been a solid ball winner for North Ballarat in recent weeks and had 24 touches last week.
Ben Cunnington
The Roos' first round draft pick is the most likely to make his debut. Cunnington looks a class above at VFL level and despite a lack of match fitness, he looks closer to selection every week. 29 possessions in the Roosters' win last weekend means Scott will face another tough decision this week on whether to play the youngster.
Cruize Garlett
After fracturing his wrist in the lead-up to round one, Garlett is well and truly on the comeback trail. He picked up 30 possessions against Frankston and 21 last week against Coburg. He was in the starting line-up during the NAB Cup, so there’s no reason why he can't make his way back in.
Levi Greenwood
It would be a surprise to see Greenwood recalled this week after just one game in the VFL reserves. The 21 year-old racked up 28 possessions and eight tackles in his first game back and will certainly be desperate to come back after a bizarre injury that left him with a broken toe a month ago.
Corey Jones
Jones played the first two games of the season but fell out of favour following the Roos’ loss to the Saints. The veteran forward wasn't alone in having a quiet night and it was to his credit that he returned to the VFL and had an impact. He picked up 16 disposals and six clearances but could find it difficult to earn a recall.
Brayden Norris
Norris’ form can't be ignored after 21 possessions and two goals for North Ballarat. Despite his light frame, the teenager shows plenty of determination and courage. The forward could be an option much sooner than expected.
Daniel Pratt
The hardened body of an experienced defender could be important against the Swans and Pratt did everything in his power to earn a recall. He had 18 possessions in the Roosters' win and earnt the praise of development coach John Lamont for his commitment.
Ben Ross
Ross had a hard tag last week with Werribee as the Tigers were beaten by 83 points, but never-the-less he was able to muster 15 possessions and a goal. Ross will be keen to add to his career game tally of 14 in the coming weeks.
Josh Smith
Smith is another who's been impressive for the Roosters. While he didn't make the most of opportunities booting two goals and three behinds, he managed to pull down six marks and dominated his opponent. Like Jones, he'll find it hard to squeeze in to the team after some good performances from North's forwards against West Coast.
Robbie Tarrant
Tarrant has been right in the mix over the last three weeks having been named as an emergency in every round. He had his quietest game of the season last week with just eight possessions for Werribee, but his exceptional work-rate and determination will hold him in good stead.
