So my expected best 23 for the start of preseason:

B: Max, Murray, Worrell
HB: Milera, Keane, Hinge
C: Cummings, Dawson, Ah Chee
HF: Keays, Thilthorpe, Tex
F: Rankine, Fogarty, Rachele
R: O'Brien, Curtin, Soligo
INT: ANB, Peatling, Laird, Draper, Edwards

From the SF side:

In: Draper, Edwards, Ah Chee, Rankine
Out: Berry, Pedlar, Taylor, Smith.

Inside mid rotation: Dawson 60-80%, Soligo 60-80%, Curtin 50-70%, Peatling 30-50%, Rankine 20-40%. Draper as an emergency addition/low risk situations.

Pedlar is probably the only unlucky one, especially off a good finals series, but he loses his spot because it's time to get our two best prospects into the lineup. Taylor for Ah Chee is a pretty clear upgrade, Berry was useless as an inside mid and gets Draper in (with Curtin picking up his minutes) and Smith has retired.

Adelaide could go balls out and switch Laird for Bond, with the thought of releasing Max into a half back flank role, but that's not something I foresee happening just yet.

Hinge is one who I think could/will drop out of we have a good run with injuries. He needs to be depth not best 23 in my view
 
To start the season:
B: Worrell Murray Laird
Hb: Max Keane Cumming
C: Curtin (m2) Dawson Hinge
Hf: Ah Chee Thilthorpe ANB
F. Keays Fogarty Rachele
R. O’Brien Rankine Soligo
I: Peatling (m1) Draper (m3) Milera (d) Pedlar (f) Maley (f/r)

E: Taylor (regular) Edwards (regular) Butts (match ups/ regular) Nank (inj only) Walker (rest kpf only)

To end the season:
B: Worrell Murray Milera
Hb: Max Keane Cumming
C: Ah Chee Dawson Hinge
Hf: Peatling (m3) Thilthorpe ANB
F. Keays Fogarty Rachele
R. O’Brien Rankine Soligo
I: Curtin (m1) Draper (m2) Edwards (d) Pedlar (f) Maley (f/r)

All I know is that I am more than happy we have Dan, Josh, Max and Jake on our list for the longer term. Dan has the ability to become just about the best player in the comp in my opinion in time. Max is every chance to be a 300 gamer for us. Josh, if he can transition to midfield will be an absolute A grader and Jake is good enough to be part of a starting mid rotation when on form.

It’s like saying who’s your favourite child

That's wild.

Sid was in his unlucky to miss out list. NFI how he got that close. Max is a nice defender bit when he started lots of us saw signs of the second coming of Ben Hart. Reality is that he didn’t develop much further and he’s presently a nice reliable B grade level defender and it’s looking like that’s what he’ll remain for the foreseeable future.

Max is better than a nice defender. Benny Hart was a great defender but never made the transition to other spots. Maxy is a great defender who also has other strings to his bow

Max is more than a bog standard B grade defender

Will be our next captain... bookmark it

This will not age well at all.

Peaked at 21 has he?

He’s on track to play 300 games and go down as one of the best defenders of his generation - capable of completely blanketing opponents both tall and small despite his light frame, exceptional reading of the play and of the ball in flight, midfield craft outstanding and rebounding ability like a knife slicing through butter. Courage, determination and grit - outstanding leadership qualities.

Really poor take.
