2018 - Best 22

A lot of people have put Moore at CHB, might be where he starts the season but he is better suited as a forward IMHO

Cox will be given ever opportunity to prove himself first. I think his late season form has shown the club they made a bit of a mistake not giving him more games mid season, after being dropped early in the year.
 
Isn’t Murray on a three year contract? I thought I read that somewhere, doubt he won’t be here in 2019 even if he is a Chris Mayne/ Levi Greenwood type trainwreck
I have wondered what he is on. Haven't seen it mentioned anywhere. 3 years would be madness for a player who hasn't even come close to AFL selection in his 1st 2 seasons. Can't believe we would have magnified the stupidity of the price we paid for him by giving him 3 years.

I would hope we have done the sensible thing and offered 1 season. Still maybe 2 was offered to get him to sign on. It a very realistic outcome that we will know pretty early in the piece whether he is likely to be AFL standard. If he doesn't make the step up and ends up in the VFL permanently 3 years would be a disaster.

Or did he need to be dropped and he rebounded better for it. I think there is a real competitive streak in the Texan, needs to bring it more.

It looks pretty good on paper. Stephenson and Murphy for spells.
 
Really? Not in their debut season. 18 year olds struggle.

Not in this day and age - especially not the top end kids...

Wells on the I/C?

Don't have an issue with that, even suggested it was the likely outcome when Saintly Viewed queried his omission from an 18 man team. Good enough for Swanny to start off a bench, good enough for Wells.

What's amusing is that he's liking the posts of his former iteration.
 
It's best 22 not round one team though

So that's essentially how you see the team developing over 2018 (injuries allowing of course)?

The Langdon and Scharenberg omissions will likely bring the most argument. I'd certainly argue 1 or both will be unlikely to be missing. I'm also really hopeful that the Grundy-Cox pairing will click making Cox another unlikely omission. But if we're picking that side on form toward the end of the year then we're going okay I'd reckon.

Do Collingwoods top 10 picks. How many they play Scharenberg Freeman Degoey Moore?

Top ends kids

2016 draft alone.


Ben Ainsworth pick 4.
Will Settlefield pick 5.
Jack Scrimshaw pick 7.
Griffen Logue pick 8.
Wil Brodie pick 9.
Jack Bowes pick 10.

How many games? In fact go through the whole draft. Most weee lucky to play more than 11. Half a season.
 
He will play that position in 18 unless Buckiey is lying.
The comment was for pre season. Nothing yet for the season proper.
People on here took it to mean season.
