It's crazy to think how much we'd improve as a team with our full list in. As mentioned, our core is potential dynamite.

I am getting nervous about rich. I keep hearing about all these players who re-do their acl within the next year or so.
Arent most of those the ones who took the LARS option instead of a Trad Reco?

HB: Golby Clarke Harwood
C: Rich Rockliff Mayes
HF: Zorko Close Taylor
FF: Green Martin McGuane
Ruck: Leuenberger Hanley Redden
Bench: Lester, Aish, Beams, Raines
Starting to wander about Redden next year, with Rich coming back in which of the current 22 makes way for Jack??
Gardiner, Crisp, McStay, Beams, Aish, Taylor.... Reddo would ahead of most of this weeks side.
What Reddo may have to work on is being dangerous while resting up forward.
I have a hazy memory of Redden making some useful little handballs in the forwardline. He might not ever be a goal-a-game type of player, but he could help the mozzies get into space.
I know the below list is too young to have any consistency but it will help fast track our young ones development.
It also means that we have experianced bodies ready to go when fatigue sets in later in the year.
Cutler - Clarke - Patfull
Rich - Gardiner - Hanley
Aish - Robertson - Beams
Mayes - Close - Zorko
Green - Merrett - Taylor
Luey - Rockcliff - Redden
INT: Paperone, Martin, Lester
SUB: Bewick or Goose

I actually think Cutler will be a near permanent member of best 22 next year. His DE is near elite and takes the game on. Leppa wants players in the backline with good DE. Against the Suns, our backline DE wasn't that great, imo.B. Adcock - Clarke - Patfull
HB. Bewick - Maguire - Harwood
C. Hanley - Rockliff - Rich
HF. Mayes - Staker - Paparone
F. Green - Merrett - Zorko
Ruck. Leuenberger - Redden - Aish
Inter - Gardiner, Taylor, Martin, Lester
Lester really only gets in because frankly we're still short of midfielders.

Agreed on all points. I personally don't think Close will be competing with staker as l think they play different roles (not sure). I probably would prefer McGuane at this stage but l don't mind Staker as long as he is consistently performing.Cutler does look pretty exciting. For a big built guy he really moves well, uses it well (as you pointed out) and has a thumping kick--landed one easily from outside 50 early on, if I remember correctly. In the medium term I think he would be vying with Harwood/Golby for that spot, with another possibly taking over Jed's spot in the longer term. Maybe not round 1 next year, but I'm sure he'll get a decent crack at the spot during next year at least.
I'm also fairly confident Close will play CHF more weeks than not unless he has a real downswing. I really hope Stakes gets and stays healthy, but I think Close is developing nicely and the club seem to be pretty invested in him. After Staker's extended spell out and another preseason for Close, it may be a narrow margin between the two .
What, do you know who Redden is?Starting to wander about Redden next year, with Rich coming back in which of the current 22 makes way for Jack??

Haha, must have been tired or something.If his head isn't right, maybe he will be...
