They will all be in the mix for the first team, whether you want them or not
Zads also only came back from the UK a fortnight ago, so he is still nowhere near 100% either

Reports from the last couple of preseason games (including the one I attended at Bonnyrigg) was that we have been trying a 343 as well as 433, along with shifting around various players to play behind a striker (Gibbs)
Caravella came on last night and done nothing. I think you will find him behind Zads/Kanta/Brillante for midfield roles anyway

Chapman has been already involved in a few preseason games but sat out last night so it ain't like he hasn't been sighted.

I will discount Mitchell as a first teamer cause he ain't. Chapman and Jaliens will be ahead of him definitely and Taylor will be also assuming the Egg doesn't have him running laps still for that incident in Wellington.

Brown is too far behind the others physically to get a realistic look in at the start of the season but who knows with our overlord


Those who went last night will confirm there was no massive tactical tweakings and it stayed more or less the same predictable way all game
