Almost a perfect team, but get rid of that idiot Weightman.

Fair enough he was on the border of do I pick him or someone else, small forwards are a hard choice.

Weightman IMO isn't even in the same ballpark as guys like Rozee (if you want youth) Greene/Cameron (pure talent and current output)

I’d go with a Newcastle franchise because by the time I’m as old as Kevin Sheedy, it would’ve paid off. About 50 years.

My marquee player would be Bailey Smith

because I think he has the potential to be the next Andrew Johns if he lived in/represented such a region.

Rozee that’s the answer- I like it

Nice team, like Dawson Mcluggage as other options. Also Jackson as the ruckman, proving you have faith in him to hold the number 1 position, that’s new and I see some positives.
Whose your old wise dog, Stewart Cripps ?
I like your starting midfielders being quite attacking along with your wings, I think they could slide forward and let the interchange come on for swings as well on the ball or visa versa, very flexible team which is great on rotations.

Nice this is different, very nice mixture in the backline with run marking kicking elite players.
The ruck is Sean Darcy not your clubs father son from this year?
A very fast team , smaller than some but would be a good brand of footy to watch.
Few older players but quite a young team Rich to lead the backs Cameron and Greene for the forwards and Cripps for the midfield.
Also Touk Miller adds another dimension to your midfield , some very strong players running through there.
