Opinion 2015 Starting 22 for Round 1

Remove this Banner Ad

I'm just confused as to the point of comparing Martins 1 week experiment at Half back to Luke Hodge considering Hodge played there in juniors and his first 60-80 games. This is nonsense on stilts
I was only stating I like the idea of players being trained in multiple positions of which martin had his 'stint' last year. I know you disagree but that's fine, each to their own. Hodge came into the debate regarding having midfielders in the back 6. I don't think it was a direct player v player comparison.

* We all know they'll pick Newman and Grigg but this is what i think they should go with
** Assuming Knights is fit and shows some pre season form

Edwards a little stiff
 
who are our best defenders 1 on 1
Astbury, Rance and Vlastuin add some run to those 3 and you have our back 6

Who are our best forwards 1 on 1
Jack, Martin, Lids add a tall or 2 (TV/Griff)and a crumbing chasing fwd (Edwards) and you have the forwards

Maric, cotchin, miles, ellis, conca are certain starters so i make that 14 certainties and add some others and thats you team
 
My opinion on Dusty playing HB never really had enough time to develop there and I don't think he has the composure and leadership to play that roll, one on one in the forward line he is strong and kaiotic and is a gun there so if it ain't broke why fix it. I wish we had another Lids to play in the back. I like Houli most times but we need a star of HB, like a Mc Cloud or Leon Cameron :p
 
What I would like to see

HB Houli Rance Batchelor
CEN Ellis Miles Conca
HF Edwards Griffiths Deledio
FF Lloyd Riewoldt Vickery
RU Maric Martin Cotchin

INT Vlastuin, McDonough, Gordon, Knights
EMG Lennon, Arnot, Dea

I'm sure they'll be playing Grigg, Newman & Chaplin though and depends who we take at Pick 12 to see when they will come into the side

Like it but would add Hunt as the tagger. Maybe Lloyd misses out as Madonna compete's for the same position.

Forgot about Hunt, was looking at the RFC senior player list to make sure I didn't miss anyone and he's not listed there yet
Agree that its probably Lloyd who misses out though that would probably require a bit of a reshuffle of positions.
Hard to do at this time of year, good to see our improved depth which will be even better if a McIntosh, Dea, McBean or Elton really step up in 2015

Agree mate, the more that happens the better of we will be.
 
B: Morris, Rance,

HB: Houli, Chaplin, Astbury

C: Vlas, Ellis, Petterd


HF: Martin, Griffiths, Deledio

F: Edwards, Riewoldt, Vickery

R: Maric, Cotchin, Miles

INT: Conca, Hunt,

The forward half looks great but the center backwards looks putrid
 
;)

well it wont be long and you will have 2 stars at HB, lennon and Duggan


Man I hope so we are desperate for class coming out of defence. We got an all Australian backman highend midfield and winger and our HF and forward line is dangerous
 
Defence. Vlas. Astbury. Chaplin
Attk Def. Houli. Rance. Lids
Speed Ellis. Cotchin. Gordon
Attk Fwd. Martin Griffith. Knights
Forwards. Hunt. Vickery Jack

Foll. Maric Miles Sheds

Int. Conca Grimes McDonagh Lennon

Sub Lloyd

Accountable defenders with a bit of class and grit
Dangerous rebounding half back line
Centre that can run all day with some class
All class half forward line (go Griffs)
And a dangerous forward line with defensive element

Opinion?

I would have Lids chf and Knights for me instead of Gordon. Mate Griffs is going tear it up this year!

Yeah I originally had Griff on the HFF instead of Gordon, but then I really liked the look or Lids / Dusty / Gordon for it's skill, strength, and running capacity. Ty plays better closer to goal, so I had to put him in a pocket over Griff... I agree though, Griff is in for a big year!

like this team a lot with changes prob to Griff CHF and Dusty to midfield then flossy to bench.
he is not a midfielder with his tank and age.I don't know if he will ever be.
 
Wouldn't mind seeing this side run out Round 1 against Carlton.

Really not many holes left and this side should be top-4 on paper assuming we get a capable, classy ready-made with our first pick.
