well,duhau,tsardakis from calder got cut and notman,lunardi from western also

 

[f00ty-1S-L!fe]

i know for sure that the following players are gone:
gaertner, power, scipione, cunningham, mcdonald

 

[-VC-]

Zac Clarke, Tyrone Vickery, Shaun McKernan, David Zaharakis and Michael Hurley made it.

 

[backtoback84]

banner,fitzpatrick made it from western

Are you sure on Duhau? I thought since he wasn't named in Cannons team this weekend he must have survived. Dylan Joyce survived.

 

[Big Bryza]

Gaertner gone??? You would think his chances of being drafted are out the window. Not good enough anyway.

no duhau got cut .

 

[foj1]

I am staggered that Banner, Joyce and Gotch got in the squad before German.
Still opinions are like a**holes and we all have one.

 

[f00ty-1S-L!fe]

congratulations goes to tom lynch, michael hurley and david zaharakis for being named metro's 3 co-captains.

I'll have a stab at a best 22

B Walker Hurley Kilpin
HB Hannebury Trengove Smith
C Zaharakis Shuey Strauss
HF Hunt Lisle Scully
F M.Clark Watts Lynch
Foll Z.Clarke McGarry Gotch
Inter McKernan Melksham Banner Martin

The only one I'm not sure about is Walker, great athlete but can't kick it as well as you would like. Purves and Griffiths could easily slot into the forward line and Gysberts on ball. Draftables in bold.

German is a natural footballer but he doesn't look like he's in great nick and he's not covering enough ground for a midfielder. Banner and Gotch both deserve their spots but Joyce is very lucky.

they have already picked 23 players for the game on sunday one will miss out and told tonight

Good effort !! Pretty close I would say. Walker has definately improved his kicking from last year, which was his biggest downfall. I think Vickery or Purves will slot in the team for Smith who isn't playing the first few games due to injury and hasn't played for the last month. Shiels or Blease may replace Melksham

Should be a hard match with country who have an excellent line up of talent to pick from with country perhaps only lacking the depth after their top 12 that may see them stumble.

Does anyone know Smith's first name? and what junior clubs he's come through from?

Are you saying they have been cut from the team? I have always had my doubts over Melksham.
