Who Will Be Our Future Centre Square Combo

[September_Glory]

If I'm to believe what I hear, games are won and lost in the centre square. Not entirely convinced but there is a good argument for it, look no further than our most recent premiership.

So what will our future centre square look like? The 4 players that will line up at the beginning of every big match in the future. The 'Plan A' when the game is on the line. Our next premiership centre square, if you will.

NicNat is the obvious choice for ruckman. The other spots will ideally be a:

Defensive Mid (tagger) + 2 Offensive Mids.

It's not going to be Priddis + Selwood forever. Talent will usurp them at some point if we are going to make a genuine flag run.

Interested to see Masten named in the middle this week, it would be the first time he started there all season.

Ebert has a chance but is probably best used as a utility who works into contests (ala the Jimmy Bartel role)

Have always been high on Scooter Selwood. Tackling is first class already and has speed and aggression.

Assume Rosa is a wingman, Shepperd will play HBF, LeCras to play primarily as a forward.

Will the forgotten man this season, Tom Swift, make a comeback?

Schuey and Koby Stevens are the dark horses. Can anyone see them being a permanent fix in the centre?

Shuey > All

 

[smiths]

Stevens is/will be better than Shuey imo. Voted for Stevens combo.

 

[smiths]

Having said that though....

Stevens + Shuey + Masten would be nice

If Masten could improve his decision making and kicking.

He's been named there for the last 3 weeks

I would like to see Schuey, Marsten,Stevens also Swift and Priddis getting involved.

 

[beatlesmith]

Masten, Swift and Shuey, with Stevens and a tagger (one of the selwoods) rotating through.

 

[placebo]

If development all goes to plan and everyone turns out awesome, then:
Shuey. hopefully a quick, skillful draftee .Stevens.
rotating with:
Masten. S.Selwood. Swift. Strijk/Shep/other future draftee/Ebert/etc

But in reality, it's a little too early to make a call on it at the moment.

 

[mitchzz]

Masten, Swift, Shuey.

 

[Hap Hapablap]

shuey stevens pick 4

 

[Mattman93]

Pretty hard to limit it to three guys, most teams would have 4 or 5 who rotate through s regular set up. Masten, Shuey and Swift as a regular starting centre with Ebert, Scooter and Stevens as regulars would be ideal.

C: Sheppard, Masten, Dont Know
Ruck: Naita, Shuey, Scooter

Dont know position at this stage could be Swift, Houlihan, Rosa or LeCras.. hoping for LeCras but leaning towards a coin toss between Rosa and Swift. JON the dark horse...

Not much faith in Stevenson then?

 

[Pat_Footy]

I think it'll be: C: Sheppard, Lecras, Swift
R: Naita, Masten, Shuey

Just put your best players in the midfield. Thats where the game is won. Let lecras lead them. Swift is a certainty. He just has the poise to shoot out the handball to the best target.

 

[Eagle Ant]

shuey stevens pick 4

Pretty close.
FB- Waters, Mackenzie, Schofield
HB- S.Selwood, Brown, Hurn
C- Houlihan, Butler, Sheppard
HF- Stevenson, Kennedy, Weedon
FF- Hams, Darling, LeCras
RR- Naitanui, Shuey, Stevens.
int- Neates, Swift, Smith, Ebert.

Our taggers will come off the HBF and HFF like they did in our premiership year.
Naita- will have the endurance to run out the whole game by himself.
Darling will be our FF.
Houlihan and Sheppard give us Speed.
Weedon that X-Factor.
Neates & Hams those little crumbers/annoyers.
Shuey, Stevens and Butler all very good disposals.
Lecca, Darling and JK all goal kickers.
Thats our Future team.

NO MASTEN cause he is Shait

 

[tesseract]

Masten, Swift and Shuey, with Stevens and a tagger (one of the selwoods) rotating through.

I don't need to write my own opinion because it's this. It better be S.Selwood you're talking about though. (Waves fist in anger if not)

Stevens is/will be better than Shuey imo. Voted for Stevens combo.

Whoa! There is not even one aspect where Stevens is better than Shuey.

I've seen enough of Shuey from juniors to now and he will be special. Bookmark.
