The Woodsmen travel across town to Jack Esplen Oval to take on the Morningside Panthers tonight in some high quality Friday Night Footy action.

After 3 weeks being decimated by injury and unavailability, the Woodsmen are welcoming back key players each week as they push towards another finals berth - but the Panthers will be tough to be beat given their experienced outfit featuring QAFL legends like Troy Moncur alongside several former AFL listed players bolstering their Friday night setup.

Back into the side comes Val Pope and Alex Dickfos while Brady Allen emerges from quarantine for his first hitout of 2020 and he looks fit and firing. However, for the first time the Woodies have had less than 6 changes from the previous week.

There is some quality tall timber to push through the ruck in Gerard Moore and Nick Barling, while the midfield will feature the likes of Davis, Jaenke-Cain, Ford, Mihalopolous, Haddad, Allen, Lloyd and Pope pushing through.

The halfback line however looks even more impressive with Luke Scott and Chris Brown on the flanks and James Page down the spine, while up forward there is potency via Dickfos and Banim and Garland rolling through off the bench. Dickfos is back into the side for his 2nd game having kicked over 250 QAFL goals across just 85 senior games for Sherwood from 2011 to 2016.

It promises to be a hot footy tonight, so get down and cheer the Woodies home in their battle against the Panthers.
