If Jack is available he should come in along with Baker.
I’d also bring in Balta to a key defensive role as without Rance we lack a key defender who has the potential to match it with the completions best key forwards.
(Not saying Balta is near that yet.Just that he has the potential to be that player and no one else on our list does).
B Astbury Balta Grimes
HB Edwards Valistun Houlie
C Bolton Martin Cotchin
HF Baker Chol Lambert
F Stack Lynch Riewoldt
R Soldo Graham Prestia
I/C Caddy Ellis McIntosh Rioli
Possibly the tallest we have been for a time, but we lose nothing in speed and absent Nankervis Rance and Ross, I believe it is our best 22 to prepare for a finals campaign.
Noah is best suited as a HF , or ruck rover type for now that can just use his size and athletic power to burn the opposition once he works out what its all about.
He may become a Key Defensive Prospect down the track.
Apart from Rance and Dave, we dont really have any others, Garth is undersized and not as agile or athletic as Grimes and Broad so isnt really a 3rd tall at AFL level. Miller is not setting the world on fire with his development either.
Grimes and Broad are perfect 3rd talls that are versatile and can cover for periods in games but not play the role week in week out.
The Tigers need another true key defender with size ie 197cm 98kg+
