Team Mgmt. Starting 22 round 1 2020

[Kakkle]

Best ruckmen. Also factually incorrect, he went off injured against the premiers in the second quarter. He got spanked by Gawn, Grundy and Goldstein. He beats up on the Stanley's and English's of the world, but when he comes up against the best, he regularly gets shown up.

Ah, my bad, Still not a spud, nor is Tom Bellchambers a better player by any means.

Also not sure if you're talking about the same Matthew Kreuzer. Ranked 14th for clearances at stoppages per game. With Grundy the only other ruckman infront of him.

So did just about every other ruck in the comp sans Rowan Marshall.

McEvoy and Bellchambers are in the same tier of rucks around the league. In this tier also would the likes of Lycett, Kreuzer, Nankervis and O'Brien entered this tier by this years end. You can rank those 6 guys from 1-6 however you like and wont get much argument from most people.

I didn't say he was, well, in this particular instance. However the point still stands. He regularly gets spanked by them.

Did he really? Huh, didn't know that. Admittedly I saw a lot less of Carlton this year than previously but he's never really impressed me.

I would have Lycett ahead honestly. And Stef Martin would be up there as well.

My tier was a bit arbitrary, if I was to really break it down it would be below

Elite - Gawn, Grundy
Star - Naitinui (only cause of durability is he not a level up) Marshall, Goldstein
Above Average - Witts, Martin, Lycett
Mid tier - Bellchambers, Kreuzer, McEvoy, Nankervis, Sinclair
Below average/cooked - Stanley, Mumford, Jacobs

Upcoming - Darcy, English, O'Brien

Martin for me is better than Goldstein. Goldy the better season but Martin has been top 4/5 for the past 3 years IMO. I'd have Sinclair in the lower tier as well.

Willing to do one now that our list is 99% complete (ignoring VFL listed players in the ressies for now).

Seniors:

FB: Aaron Francis - Patrick Ambrose - Michael Hurley
HB: Martin Gleeson - Cale Hooker - Adam Saad
MF: Andrew McGrath - Dylan Shiel - Zachary Merrett
HF: Devon Smith - Joe Daniher - Jake Stringer
FF: Orazio Fantasia - Shaun McKernan - Anthony McDonald-Tipungwuti
OB: Tom Bellchambers - Dyson Heppell - Mitchell Hibberd
IC: Darcy Parish - Mason Redman - Tom Cutler - Conor McKenna

Reserves:

FB: Ross McQuillan - Cian McBride - Jordan Ridley
HB: David Zaharakis (dreamin') - Brandon Zerk-Thatcher - Kobe Mutch
MF: Will Snelling - Dylan Clarke - Brayden Ham
HF: Jayden Laverde - Harrison Jones - Jacob Townsend
FF: Josh Begley - James Stewart - Irving Mosquito
OB: Andrew Phillips - Kyle Langford - Matthew Guelfi
IC: Nick Bryan - Noah Gown - Ned Cahill - VFL players etc

Not including Draper or Johnson as they're out for a significant chunk next year as it stands

 

[ghostdog]

T-Bell is a mid tier ruck in the AFL - he's nowhere the top 4 or 5 rucks but he's considerably better than the bottom 4 or 5.

...even if, that's now. By Round 6 or 7, no dice I reckon. Bellchambers will fall off this season.

I think new recruits Cutler & Hibberd will play round 1. Reserves have to be a chance for the flag with the team below...I'd like to see;-

HB Gleeson Hurley Mckenna
C Shiel Merrett McGrath
HF Fantasia Daniher Smith
F Stringer McKernan Tippa

Foll: Bellcho Heppell Clarke

Bench: Parish Redman Cutler Francis


**EDIT** Just realised we play Freo first round so I think Clarke has to play and tag Fyfe. Hibberd might have to wait to debut....

Part of me would really like to see Clarke tagging to allow Hibberd to extract and feed out to Shiel, Merrett, Parish etc.

B: Hurley Ambrose Saad

HF: McKernan Daniher Smith
F: Fantasia Hooker McDonald-Tipungwuti

That was hard. I don't even think I'm settled on that team.

Because he's not good enough to be in the starting 22.
Not saying he was never a good player, but his assets are quickly deteriorating and he's easily replaceable.

Hibberd was recruited for a reason and provides some balance to our current midfield group. Stringer can pinch hit in the middle if required.

D.Clarke, Langford, Snelling and Guelfi stiff but I'm reality injuries will happen and they are next in.
If Daniher doesn't make it back by round 1 then Hooker goes forward and Langford comes in.

 

[Milanista28]

If we can stay relatively injury free, we'll have players who are used to playing seniors in the 2s for extended periods.

I hope we notice a ruthless change at he selection table, if you're not performing you're out, none of this lose by 60 points and let the same 22 try and redeem themselves.

I can't wait for the pre season games

Yeah. We seem to be assuming Joe plays Round 1.
I'm not so confident.

I was just reading all the posts on this page have him starting 22. I would at least wait for him to start running.
