At the risk of being repetitive I think JG should be telling Cudjoe and Middleton to swap for short periods just to create uncertainty in defenders. Just 10 minutes here and there.

3 points here is essential.
Would love to see Meekison given a chance as surely he must be over his injury now, but like you say, i have doubts that Watt will loose his place. Given that Thomson pulled up with cramp late on, Grimshaw will get his place back, but a man can dream, eh!

The swapping of wingers, we did that regularly under a previous manager, and sometimes to very good effect. But Middleton usually gravitates to the middle in most games, and i noticed Cudjoe did that as well on Saturday. Wish they would give it a try at least.
