but nlm, myers and mcphe can play small because they are very athletic and versitile. Thats the great thing about our backline. They are fast and tall and fit and versitile and athletic.

It's not really our "best 22", but it's not a bad looking side at all. Hopefully some of those youngsters can work their way into the best 22 throughout the year.

thats a real worry if people have Hille in the ruck, Watson in the middle and none of the draft picks in the starting 18. Thats a real worry.

I would of thought not having Fletcher in the team is what you would call a real worry.
So too would be to have Ryder ruck by himself all game.
Where is Nash?

A new recruit to walk into the "best 22" team and play CHB, No wonder we drafted him

Hey..no need to start fighting..whilst Myers wouldn't have been my choice. Is he a bad choice, nope. He is extremely talented. And I am willing to give the bloke a go!
I'm not fighting but i don't think you got my point.
Do you expect an 18 year old kid to walk into our best 22 and hold down CHB in front of Fletcher or Ryder?

Would have thought our AA from last season would manage to scrape onto the bench if not a starting 18 position?

Yes I do as frankly I see Ryder as a ruckman, and Fletcher is better when loose anyway.
Most people seem to have left JJ and Pev out of the best 22. I think this is based more on hope than reality. I would like nothing more than for a number of young players to force them into retirement next year, but at the moment they are both definately in the best 22. Whether or not they are ahead enough to play in front of younger players is another issue.

JJ is past it, it really is time to move on. Hopwever I see him play a vital role for Bendigo in the development of youngsters, same with Peverill to be honest.

I think our backline is starting to look alot more promising than it has in previous years, with Fletch and Mal still the anchors. Just bear in mind that it will get worse when those two retire before it gets better.
Midfield is still not quite up to the standards of the top sides but I think in 2-3 years we could have an A-Grade midfield. I've put in a few possible changes for the on-ballers which is basically just my own opinion. I think Welsh really stepped up last season and I would like to see if he has what it takes to play in the middle. In alot of the games last year we were getting smashed in the ruck while Hille was on and then when Laycock came on the game completely swung, I would like to see him step up a bit more and take charge.
The forward line is our strongest point as it has been for quite awhile. Lloyd and Lucas should have another 50+ year each. I like Davey hanging around the 50 so he can trap the ball in and also push up the ground a bit when needed.
I know alot of people will disagree with my line-up. This is how I kind of imagine the team for the first couple rounds then I would like to see a lot of rotating and experimenting with the younger players.

But you want an 18 year old kid to play out of position and play on some of the best forwards in the comp when Hille and Laycock will be playing ruck anyway?

Hille is not in my starting 22.
