Who comes in for SIngh?  Burgess looked good last week but surely Sheridan is worth a run?

You'd have to think Burgess. His ball in behind for Roy was sublime, and he had fantastic energy all game. Wasnt afraid to run at his marker either or get his head up and have a go from distance. Too good a performance to not start him again. I think it will be a midfield 3 of Mandi, Rufer and Burgess. Front two the same, and hopefully Taylor back in. Looking back at the wanderers results of the last month, I don't feel overly confident about this one. Think it'll be tight but with a lot of goals. 3-2 to the nix

Burgess played very well and - even considering that CCM were crap - he looked well above the grade of a NPL player.  I would like to see him start.

Also, I do not think "Sheridan or Burgess" is the right question.  They are totally different types of a player and could be on the field at te same time without getting into each other's way. Burgess is more like a younger fitter version of Nathan Burns. Sheridan is more like... well....like Sheridan.   Rudan clearly sees more of him in training than we do on the park, so he must be aware of something that prevents him from starting Sheridan.  Maybe he fades in and out?  Or maybe he has fitness issues? Then a short appearance is still sensible.

Burgess played very well and - even considering that CCM were crap - some of his passes were well above the class expected of a NPL grade player.  I would like to see him start.
