Right, I've had enough foreplay and AFL-X. Let's get on it! Friday, March 1.

Who is in your team? What are you looking forward to? I wanna see the kids and the mature-aged rookies and Ablett up forward though I guess we won't see him to Round 1.

Pumped #football is back!

Can't wait for Thursday night melts over the squad/team...

My pick at the squad, which will probably be a mile off who ends up boarding the plane to Perth:

Parfitt, Clark, Taylor, Kolodjashnij, Kelly, J.Selwood, S.Selwood, Ratugolea, Constable, Narkle, Rohan, Bews, Hawkins, Menegola, Fort, Atkins, Cunico, Miers, Dangerfield, Simpson, Henry, Dahlhaus, Jones, O'Connor, Abbott, Blicavs.

Can see us lining up like this:

B: Bews Blicavs Henry
HB: O'Connor Taylor Clark
C: Parfitt J.Selwood Narkle
HF: Rohan Hawkins Dahlhaus
F: Miers Ratugolea Atkins
Foll: Fort Dangerfield Kelly
Int: Abbott Constable Jones Menegola Simpson Kolodjashnij Cunico S.Selwood

Rested/missing: Stanley, Tuohy, Ablett, Cockatoo, Smith, Jarvis, Buzza, Fogarty, Kreuger, Brownless, Kennerley, Duncan, Henderson, C.Guthrie, Tarca, Parsons, Schlenslog, Z.Guthrie, Okunbor, Stewart

I think I've spent too much time in front of computer screens today's as I read the bench as being Abbott Costello....
 
With only 2 games, and new rule changes, it has been said already that we will be using a near best 22 squad. Don’t expect many kids in the team unless they are being considered for rnd 1 selection. Might see constable, clark or atkins but probably not many more. Might be an extended bench though? Which may allow a couple extras.

I read all that were fit would get a run.. with expanded squads..?

If Bews and Tuohy are not fit for round 1 it’s going to be interesting little battle for those small defender roles. I wouldn’t mind seeing a Selwood down there.

small and medium defender ..

Stewart , Blitz , Kolo
CGuthrie , Taylor , Henderson , Henry

then Clarke , Rohan , MOC , ZGuthrie ,... I wonder if one of the smalls that have played forward will get a go in D like Jones ? What about Cunico..has hardly been mentioned over the PreSeason..

That backline is too tall for my liking agree Cguthrie will probably be one player who covers Tuohy. We need someone who can lockdown like Bews if he doesn’t get up for the first game. Clarke should get a go in the jlt but I think Scooter could play the role or Atkins. Some may be concerned about pace but they are smart and strong players.

Keen as, please no injuries. Interested to see how the rule changes effect play. Cant even remember all the changes they brought in other then the kick ins and 6-6-6

I agree it looks tall but I suspect that it might be something like it... although I think Hendo is not fit? Id prefer to have another small to replace Bews but I dont see him. atm. As I said I think one of the small forwards may have to start looking at alternates ...especially this year as Ablett will take a spot. Can Jones learn the role. Maybe SS but I suspect he will be in the middle. Id be happy enough to have an unproven like Clarke get a go.. as Im all for youth getting a go if they are ready.
 
He has JLT to show something or it maybe a tough year
The year is long, plenty of time given any team's injury history, ours no exception. He'd have to be in contention before some of the newbies that are mentioned in this thread, from what I hear.

Newbies? Like who do you have in mind?
We will see.. if he can find a way to kick a few goals it will help..
