Beautifully summed up but I want Hill in that side, for Noble perhaps?Frampton, Dean, Murphy (Kelly) have the preseason to win the position
Reckon Frampton has the physical edge we lack 200cm 100 k.
It allows Moore to take Curnow or Cameron while Frampton takes McKay or Hawkins (Howe to intercept as the 3rd KPD)
It also allows us to play Frampton as Ruck inside the back 50m line and McStay inside the forward 50. Cameron roams the middle
McStay as secondary ruck when Cameron plays forward
Murphy becomes the 8th defender, Noble's ability to play wing guarantees his spot, with the same principle applied to WHE
The Sub/5th player will be interesting. I lean toward N Kreuger
Disappointed with losing Grundy and Henry but the list is better balanced wth decent depth throughout
B: J Howe B Frampton B Maynard
HB: I Quaynor D Moore S Pendlebury
C: S Sidebottom J De Goey J Daicos
HF: N Daicos D McStay B McCreery
F: J Elliott B Mihocek J Ginnivan

Competition for spots is a beautiful thing. Hill is in my emergencies, but if Noble misses N Daicos moves back, Hill into the fwd lineBeautifully summed up but I want Hill in that side, for Noble perhaps?
Just an after thought but could we possibly try Hill running off HB at times during the year just to add some flexibilty to his game
I don't see the fascination with 200cm wingers. I think it's a waste of their height.Big call for my first post but imagine if.
Two of Frampton, Dean, Murphy, Kelly won a spot enabling > Darcy Moore to a wing
Agree. If you win at CHB, you have gone a fair way to winning the game.I don't see the fascination with 200cm wingers. I think it's a waste of their height.
Furthermore, the wing is already one of our points of difference. I don't think there was a better combination of wingers than Sidebottom and Josh Daicos n 2022. Moore is a star defender and that's where he belongsAgree. If you win at CHB, you have gone a fair way to winning the game.
If Dean and Murphy can play accountable football, Moore and Howe can launch counter attacks with their intercept marking. Quaynor and Maynard also bring their share of quality.
We also had the two highest rated wingers in the comp and both were in our top 10 at the Copeland so I don’t see either Daicos or Sidebottom vacating a wing to fit an extra Dean or Kelly in the side.I don't see the fascination with 200cm wingers. I think it's a waste of their height.
Considering that we lost to the grand finalists by six points and one point respectively,and in both games we were dudded by the umpires,I’d say our premiership window is very much open.Of course our team has some weaknesses,but don’t forget that the other so called top sides aren’t exactly perfect either.Hopefully some of the younger players get opportunities to develop.
We win 15 matches under a goal, against some s**t ordinary teams, and everyone thinks we are in a premiership window. Sydney has a better team, going forward than we have.

Same. I see Murphy and Frampton not so much in direct competition for a spot: depending on need for 3 talls and injury we might see both in. Competition for a spot on every line. Impressive trade period after a development year: the pies have moved quickly from their little to no depth status 12 months ago.I've thought twice about this. The coaches probably will go with the same ruck set up. It has worked this year. And probably want Mcstay predominant in the fwd line..
Maynard. Frampton/Murphy. Howe

Elliott. Mihocek. Lippa
Naicos. Mcstay. McCreery
Cameron. De Goey. Crisp
Int: Cox, Noble, Ginnivan, Adams, Kreuger/Johnson/WHE (competing for the possible 5th spot)
Hill is probably competing with Beau. WHE prob ahead for that marking forward role ahead of Kreuger/Johnson.
This will be close pending any niggles.My current first blush on Rd 1.
Not convinced about my Ruck situation, but McStay/Kreuger is a more traditional 2nd ruck offering.
Also allows Kreuger to pinch hit in defence if one of the KPP's goes down.
Preferring - the size of Frampton or Dean to Murphy, the pace/pressure of Hill to WHE, Kreuger for versatility across the ground

If everyone is fit. Bianco for Hill, one of the rucks for McStay, Murphy (if Frampton is good). I think one of Kreuger/Johnson will play and one miss out. No idea who for Mitchell.Who are the first out with a handful of new recruits- I’m thinking ( just an opinion don’t stress )
Noble
Johnson
Ginn
Bianco
McCreery
WHE
Murphy ( maybe )
Either one of Cox or Cameron
