Who would've thought a few years ago that Cooney, Chapman, Goddard and Watson would all be playing in the same team together
 
I'll give it a crack. Assuming we are fully fit etc etc.....


B: Stratton Lake Gibson
HB: Mitchell Frawley Birchall
C: Hill Lewis Smith
HF: Bruest Roughead Rioli
F: Puopolo Hale Gunston
R: Ceglar Langford Burgoyne

I: Hodge Shiels Duryea (Simpkin)

E: Spangher McEvoy Litherland

Depth: Schoenmakers, Suckling, O'Rourke, Whitecross, Anderson, Hartung, Woodward, Grimley, O'brien


That's one good team with great depth. Feel like I should have Suckling in the best 22 or at least emergencies but not sure who's spot he would take
 
FB - Harwood Merrett Adcock
HB - Hanley Clarke Gardiner
C - Rich Rockliff Christensen
HF - Mayes Close Zorko
FF - Green Freeman Leunberger
FOL - Martin Redden Deams

Bench - McStay Aish Taylor
Sub - Ceams (Paparone, Lester, Robertson, Bewick, Staker, McGuane, Cutler)

It is hard to do the Lions, so many young players who could fill spots. Competition in the pre-season should be fierce.
 

Given we just finished 9th (Sorry Sheldon, we're sitting in you're spot) and were unlucky to lose a couple of games we should've won I'd say we're pretty much the definition of a mid table team.

7 Essendon
8 Richmond
9 West Coast
10 Adelaide
11 Collingwood
12 Gold Coast

13 Carlton
14 Bulldogs
15 Brisbane
16 GWS
17 Melbourne
18 St Kilda

Bolded is the middle third of the comp. I can't see it changing drastically in 2015. Brisbane and GWS might improve a bit, but they're still a few wins off finals contention on 2014 form.

I'll go:

B: Morris, Rance, Grimes
HB: Houli, Astbury, Lennon
B: Ellis, Cotchin, Vlastuin
HF: Martin, Griffiths, Deledio
F: Vickery, Riewoldt, S.Edwards
Foll: Maric, Miles, Conca
Int: Grigg, Petterd, McDonough, Gordon

That's assuming Lennon/McDonough will improve and push Newman out. Hopefully some new kids can force their way in too. Chaplin will almost certainly get games though and will be competing with Grimes for a spot.

IIRC GF side plus...

IN: Mitchell, Laidler, Jones
OUT: Shaw, Jetta, Malceski

I reckon Shaw will stay in the best 22 with Malceski gone. If you don't want Jetta we'll have him.:)

Emergencies:
Andrew Moore, Aaron Young, Tom Clurey

IN: Mitchell, Laidler, Jones
OUT: Shaw, Jetta, Malceski

Don't know what to do with Jetta. If West Coast had offered a third rounder I would have taken it.
Shaw will get a game but he isn't best 22 in my opinion.

Identical to mine TJB except I've got Zac in the ruck instead of Tommy. I prefer Tommy too but I think it's currently Zac's to lose.

Firrito unlucky, otherwise 100% agree, Benny Brown is going to have a good year.
