Next years team

We cant carry daft players, players who just don't get involved, and players who spray it.

We are left with heaps of players who are untried kids, but we need to get rid of these 'talented' kids who just don'y touch the ball.

Krakouer, Meyer, Tambling SHOULD be culled. Of course we can't because we give long term contacts to people unsuited to their job.

Tivendale and Hyde are possibly worth another year.

Tuck needs to be played in the forward line only, or no-where.

Howat and Johnson we don't need.

Moore and McGuane are dubious.

Pattison really doesn't have a role in AFL despite showing a bit. Who needs a 198cm wandering midfielder?
 
Moore & Krakouer gone. Tambling just average, still hoping. Agree regarding Howat and yet to be convinced on King. Watching Conners, Reiwoldt and Edwards gives me hope we might be on the right track with Jackson and his recruiting. Gee the 04 (Deledio excepted) & 05 drafees want to get a hurry on....! :'(

*I don't think Wallet will play J. Bowden in a key defensive slot next year. If he doesn't I don't know where else you play him. Slow sweepers are a waste of park space IMO. And he's not a midfielder. I dunno.

Let's hope the VACANCIES trifecta the B&F next year. The hope of the side.

i see so many things rong here...that im not even guna bother argueing!
 
tuck- should never be allowed to kick the ball again (unless he's having a shot at goal!)

hughes- terry he's a forward not a backman!!

anybody under the age of 22 your pre season will consist of weights only!(i'm sick of players breaking our tackles!)

raines-play him inthe middle , showed some good signs last night :)

i think we need to persist with meyer, tambling and jon, they will come on with some help from mcrae or dare i say it sheedy in a player develop role?

time to go: tivers
hall
howart
krack
moore
and one or two others

Your team should include Tambling and Polo for starters. Hughes will make it as will Raines. Jack and Conners are likely to be there also from what we've seen.

Hyde didnt play.
 
B........King............Schulz..........Thursfield
HB......Casserly.....Polak...........Connors
C........Deledio.......Bowden.......Edwards
HF......Cotchin.......Riewoldt.......Pettifer
F........Brown.........Richo............Hughes
Foll....Simmo.........Newman......Foley
Int.....Patto..........Polo......Coughlan.......2007 recruit
 
If it was me:


FB:    King      Thursfield  McGuane

HB: Casserly      Polak      Connors

C:  Tambling    Newman    Deledio

HF: Riewoldt    Hughes    Edwards

FF:  Brown        Schulz      Pettifer

R. Simmonds, Foley, Polo

Int/Emerg: Pattison, Richo, Cotchin*, Cogs, Wood, JON, Sugar, Meyer, White, Peterson etc



* Yep Richo on the bench...club needs to start realising he wont be in our next premiership side...should start focusing on a Schulz, Hughes, JR combination.

*Id trade Raines to Brisbane for Cam Wood. Then use whatever pick we get either 1 or 2 on the best midfielder - Cotchin?

* Thursfield, McGuane and Polak the 3 key backs...with possibly another from a trade. All need to sit their bums in the Gym all Summer.

* Newman to play on ball.

* Casserly and Connors on the flanks...have to start playing these guys who can kick. its getting beyond the joke - GET GAMES INTO THEM! Swap with JON.

* Foley, Polo, Newman, Cogs - get the pill and dish to Deledio, Edwards, Bling etc.

* One of (if not both) Tuck and Bowden traded for picks and possibly a youngster ala Prismall.

*De-listed are Knobel, Hall, Moore, Howat, Tivendale, Krakouer (if he cant b traded), Hyde, Hartigan and possibly Jackson.

*Sugar remains but Brown becomes captain for at least 2008.

....have to start making some tough calls on these guys!

The last time we traded to Brisbane for players we ended up with Morrison. If a player can't get a game with Brisbane then we don't want him. Raines is one of our few kids who earn a game in the ones. Maybe Wood is the fourth in line ruck because he is no good.

Thank Brisbane very much but they can keep their drafting errors and we can keep ours.

I/C:Pattison,JON,Conners,Cogs

;D ;D ;D ;D
 
Charman, MacDonald, Wood and Leunberger...perhaps thats why Wood struggles to get a game.... Raines would struggle to get a game at brissy lets be honest.
