Goodwin said post match Frtisch is hard not to name round 1.B: Jetta OMac Lever
HB: Hibberd Frost Hunt
C: Harmes Oliver Jones
HF: Melksham Hogan Petracca
F: Garlett TMac Hannan
R: Gawn Viney Tyson
Int: Lewis Brayshaw Salem ANB
Notes:
Fritsch ******* unlucky
Frost in, important to free up Lever
Stretch deserves the wing slot, finds space, but Harmes just better currently
Wagner can stay the hell away
Vince good depth but not in the side.
ANB is clearly best 22, and we missed his running power in that third quarter yesterdayIf he's not injured, Neal-Bullen will play every game.
For mine its between him and Frost. Still prefer Lever on the third tall.Goodwin said post match Frtisch is hard not to name round 1.
And I agree.
For mine its between him and Frost. Still prefer Lever on the third tall.
Good problem to have though
When was he the third tall? Oscar and Frost were never on the ground at the same time, unless you're talking about Lever being behind HibberdFrost needs to play to free up Lever, he clearly played a lot better as the 3rd tall last night.

Lever needs to learn how to play KPD eventually - we didn't give up what we did for a tall back flanker/improved Colin Garland. Look at Rance - sure he has Astbury to play the majority lockdown role and release him to rebound, but he can also contend with Buddy himself when he needs to. I'm not saying Lever needs to become this immediately, but after 4 or 5 years in the system he should be tracking like Rance didI think the combination of backs we play will depend on the opposition each week. For example against Geelong we have Oscar on Hawkins and Lever playing more free floating across in front of Hawkins. Frost doesn't need to play. Against teams playing two big forwards we have Oscar and Frost both in the side with Lever taking a third tall or playing free.

Yeah but I don't care about the stat sheet. We didn't recruit Lever to pick up stats, we recruited him to play as a key defender and comparing their statistial progression doesn't really indicate if he's going to be able to emulate Rance's current playing style. He just needs practice and training in a KPD role, even if there's some short term pain.He's year 4 now and missed year 1 due to his knee...and he's tracking better than Rance on the stat sheet. Not concerned.
