Based on the scratch match and injury report this is what I've come up with.

B Corr Tarrant McDonald
HB Atley McKay Ziebell
C Polec Cunnington Stephenson
HF Taylor Larkey Thomas
F Lazzaro Xerri Zurhaar
Foll Goldstein LDU Simpkin
Int: Scott, Hayden, Powell, Young
Will be pretty close to it but I think Turner will get in before lazzaro

Backline is old but there's 13 guys in there currently 22 or younger. Lots of talent will be exposed at a senior level. No point in giving games to guys like Campbell, Hall and Tyson who will all be gone at the end of the year.

I dunno why you bothered factoring that.

Practice game form without Goldstein in the ruck basically tells us nothing about the midfield.

We won't always have him. Just have to base form off what I've seen.

We are well & truly ****ed if we can't replace him.

He is THE most influential player on the list.
 
Powell just about goes ahead of Lazzaro based on today

I reckon he could contend for a wing spot earlier than I first thought.

He OOOOOOOOOOOOOZES class.

He certainly covered the ground a bit better than he had been doing in intras and training. Not just an inside mid from the looks. Everything else rang true though, very good below his knees, makes good decisions and looks to have the skills to back it up. I like what I see

Also hearing how effusive Frog was about him on the coverage suggests he's very highly rated internally by players and coaches alike

He gets in to the right positions................A LOT.
 
Jed 4-6 weeks away

Frog apparently won't play until rd5-6

Perez out for a month

Ldu was rested

Polec will play a couple quarters against the Hawks.

Obviously some sub optimal news here

McDonald - Tarrant - Atley
Corr - McKay - Ziebell
Polec - Cunnington - Scott
Thomas - Zurhaar - Stephenson
Taylor - Larkey - Turner
Goldstein - LDU - Simpkin
Powell - Hayden - Lazzaro - Tyson

Mahoney arm
Anderson injured
J.Walker superfluous
Dumont injured
Bonar injured
Perez injured

Might prefer Phillips over Tyson
Don't think there's room for Hall
 
Going to be a long year.


B: Corr - Tarrant - Thomas
HB: Perez - McKay - McDonald
C: Polec - Phillips - Powell
HF: Taylor - Larkey - Stephenson
F: Zurhaar - Xerri - Cunnington
Foll: Goldstein - LDU - Simpkin
Int: Lazarro - Hayden - Scott - Ziebell

Em: Ford Mahony Spicer W.Walker

Anderson/Comben/Dumont not fit.

Young, Turner, Hall, Dyson, Campbell, Ziebell (really), Atley, J.Walker all back-up only.
 
I can't see us going with just Goldy & Larkey as our KPF's & Rucks.

I reckon X bomb will play.

If he's good to go, then yeah I'd swap him for Turner or Lazzaro from my side. I do believe he's injured though
 
Given the injury news:

B: Corr - McKay - McDonald
HB: Atley - Tarrant - Ziebell
C: Polec - Cunnington - Scott
HF: Stephenson - Zurhaar - Thomas
FF: Turner - Larkey - Taylor
R: Goldstein - LDU - Simpkin
INT: Powell - Hayden - J. Walker - Hall

E: Lazzaro - Tyson - Young - Phillips

Any of Lazzaro/Young/Tyson could come in for Hall and Walker. Dunno what they're going to do with the ruck/2nd forward option and that's the main reason I put in Walker. I know Noble's spoken about playing two rucks, but I don't like the idea of Campbell and Goldy in the same team. If X is fit, who's a better option forward, then I think X could play instead of Walker.
 
Is Frog Dumont?

Dumont and Anderson not ready for round 1?

Was it said Dumont will be more round 5-6 ready and J.Anderson 4-6 weeks away so rounds 2-4 return?

I haven’t seen Dumont in the 5 weeks that I’ve been going. I’d reckon he’d need some solid VFL before he comes in.
