Discussion Round 1 Best 22

[Mindtraveller]

Siposs out, Templeton to HF Webster on the bench.

I'd drop McKenzie for Hickey. Longer starting Fwd Pocket.

Barrels as if you call others flogs when you're the flog leaving out one of our most promising kids who can actually hit a target!

Tough gig

This is the way I hope it goes. Geary, Ray, Simpkin are not the way forward and I hope they take up roles in the VFL side to give guys like Savage, Webster, Bruce, Acres and Petracca games and game time.

Think Ross has done his time and deserves to start.
Membrey won't have come to us to play VFL.
Bruce up forward.
Think they'll go with Hickey and Longer together and see what they have got.
May mix it up with Templeton or Murdoch in in place of White if we are too tall.

Think I was miles off last year. Let's try again

HB: Webster, Bruce, Savage
C: Newnes, Steven, Montagna
HF: Billings, Riewoldt, Petracca
FF: Templeton, White, Membrey
R: Hickey, Dunstan, Armitage
I: Longer, Acres, Weller, Ray

Seb? Saunders? Murdoch? Curren? Someone else? Dunno

 

[Mindtraveller]

What is Murdoch's best position? Any chance he can just play one position this year?

I like him as that half forward who does stints in the middle.

We seem to be getting a lot of them. How many mids do we need now? 3 sets or more?

 

[Saintos The ITK]

Surely a fit Acres fits into any first 22? He's got that crazy Michael Gardiner look in his eyes, and time seems to slow when he's got the ball. Will be our next elite aaa megastar.

 

[SK_MD_#7]

We have GWS first up.

Fisher for Wright and I think you've nailed it.

 

[Ekomaira]

Haha, I was thinking the exact same when I looked at that line

 

[Bull3tblitz]

Oh Uncle Barrels as if Webster isn't a lock off the HBF or Wing. We need his pace/desperation/disposal efficiency.

His entrys into fwd 50 are amazing and how else will we deliver the ball to Spence and McKenzie

He's not a lock. Savage is ahead of him, as is Dempster. He's in the 22 now though.

Preferably for the zebras

I like Acres, but seriously, I can do the crazy look , it doesn't make me play footy well.

 

[SaintsSeptember]

Is this his "crazy" look or is this the "loony" look?

Gardiners match summary in the HS after the 2009 GF was brilliant too!

Remember we are only allowed 15 saints listed players in sandy seniors. Need to have 9 players playing development league.
That's going to be hard i reckon. Especially if we can actually stay fit this year.

 

[Sainttony]

Don't you hate it when people put the ruck line in the middle. It goes after the forwards. Confusing

 

[dewah07]

Basically a poor mans Petracca playing the same role/position in the next 2 years, not that theirs anything wrong with that hopefully

 

[SaintsSeptember]

depends if we want to win games or pump games into the kids....

My team (based on the latter)

FB: Dempster Delaney Webster

HB: Wright Fisher Savage

C: Montagna Dunstan Acres

HF: Billings Riewoldt Petracca

F: Templeton White Bruce

R: Hickey Armitage Steven

Int: Newnes Ross Murdoch Cockatoo


Roberton, Saunders, Lee, Shenton, Ray, Pierce, Minchi, Markworth, Longer, Gilbert, Curren, Simpkin, Siposs, Weller, McKenzie, McDonald, Membrey

Another tactic would be to play Shenton every game and give him the kickouts and instruct all the others to switch to him whenever possible. Get him averaging 25+ then this time next year........

 

[dewah07]

looks like we have GWS ROUND1 at edihad. so atleast we will get to be undeafted for at least 1 week.

we then by the looks have GC round2 just in time for a gaz ablett 200sc game
