Yep, I dont mind this best 22. On paper too many inside mids, but Mundy and Neale can obviously play forward. Blakely can obviously play back. Thought Neale played a bit like Tob Greene when forward against West Coast. Langdon looks pretty good in my view. I liked how he spent time on Liam Ryan (in the second half) and shut him out of the game. Adds another string to his bow. That 22nd spot will probably depend on match ups if everyone is available. Eg Banfiled to play if the opposition has an elite half back and play a shutdown role. Cerra to play if the weather forecast is dry and the match commitee wants to maximize the amount of quality footskills we have on the field. Cerra could also spend time at both half back and half forward.

That's easily fixed .. play him where he is suited which is midfield.
It's the same with Tom Sheridan; neither, are defenders.

The problem there is we have a plethora of better options.

Pretty much spot on in my opinion. Would like to see Cerra perform though and not sold on the forward pockets just yet. But probably splitting hairs with Langdon/Banfield.
I think this is easily a finals quality 22, and a pretty good 30 if you add MJ, Kersten, etc. into the mix.
Exactly.
I could never understand why Ross played them in defence.
If there are better players for a particular position, it is a compromise too far to play them in another role for the sake of playing them.
Would like to see McCarthy, Ballantyne, Matera put in a few weeks of good form and whether Johnson and Spurr will be up to being part of a quicker side. Not convinced about any of those for 2018 best side. Best 22 right now could be easier to pick after say round 4-5.

What a strange choice for the AFL's new season ad campaign.

OK, so based on the ages on Footy Wire, the average age for that side is 23 (22.86 years) 5 months (5.27). Should be contending in the next 2-4 years.

Kersten will come good. One of those players that looks ordinary until suddenly he is very good. It's a mental thing for him, got all the tools.
This took me straight to an email I got a while back. Tools are useless if you have no idea!!!
DRILL PRESS: A tall upright machine useful for suddenly snatching flat metal bar stock out of your hands so that it smacks you in the chest and flings your pop across the room, splattering it against that freshly painted part you were drying.
WIRE WHEEL: Cleans paint off bolts and then throws them somewhere under the workbench with the speed of light. Also removes fingerprint whorls and hard-earned guitar calluses in about the time it takes you to say, "SH**!!!"
ELECTRIC HAND DRILL: Normally used for spinning pop rivets in their holes until you die of old age.
PLIERS: Used to round off hexagonal bolt heads.
HACKSAW: One of a family of cutting tools built on the Ouija board principle: It transforms human energy into a crooked, unpredictable motion, and the more you attempt to influence its course, the more dismal your future becomes.
VISE GRIP PLIERS: Used to round off bolt heads. If nothing else is available, they can also be used to transfer intense welding heat to the palm of your hand.
OXYACETYLENE TORCH: Used almost entirely for setting various flammable objects in your shop on fire. Also handy for igniting the grease inside a wheel hub you're trying to get the bearing raceout of.
WHITWORTH SOCKETS: Once used for working on older British cars and motorcycles, they are now used mainly for impersonating that 9/16 or 1/2 socket you've been searching for the last 15 minutes.
HYDRAULIC FLOOR JACK: Used for lowering an automobile to the ground after you have installed your new disk brake pads, trapping the jack handle firmly under the bumper.
EIGHT-FOOT LONG DOUGLAS FIR 4X4: Used to attempt to lever an automobile upward off a hydraulic jack handle.
TWEEZERS: A tool for removing splinters of wood, especially Douglas fir.
TELEPHONE: Tool for calling your neighbor to see if he has another hydraulic floor jack.
SNAP-ON GASKET SCRAPER: Theoretically useful as a sandwich tool for spreading mayonnaise; used mainly for removing dog feces from your boots.
E-Z OUT BOLT AND STUD EXTRACTOR: A tool that snaps off in bolt holes and is ten times harder than any known drill bit.
TWO-TON HYDRAULIC ENGINE HOIST: A handy tool for testing the tensile strength of bolts and fuel lines you forgot to disconnect.
CRAFTSMAN 1/2 x 16-INCH SCREWDRIVER: A large motor mountprying tool that inexplicably has an accurately machined screwdriver tip on the end without the handle.
AVIATION METAL SNIPS: See hacksaw.
TROUBLE LIGHT: The home builder's own tanning booth. Sometimes called a drop light, it is a good source of vitamin D, "the sunshine vitamin", which is not otherwise found under cars at night. Health benefits aside, its main purpose is to consume 40-watt light bulbs at about the same rate that 105-mm howitzer shells might be used during, say, the first few hours of the Battle of the Bulge. More often dark than light, its name is somewhat misleading.
PHILLIPS SCREWDRIVER: Normally used to stab the lids of old-style paper-and-tin oil cans and squirt oil on your shirt; can also be used, as the name implies, to round off the interiors of Phillips screw heads.
AIR COMPRESSOR: A machine that takes energy produced in a coal-burning power plant 200 miles away and transforms it into compressed air that travels by hose to a Pneumatic impact wrench that grips rusty bolts last tightened 70 years ago by someone at Ford, and rounds them off.
PRY BAR: A tool used to crumple the metal surrounding that clip or bracket you needed to remove in order to replace a 50 cent part.
HOSE CUTTER: A tool used to cut hoses 1/2 inch too short.
HAMMER: Originally employed as a weapon of war, the hammer now-a-days is used as a kind of divining rod to locate expensive parts not far from the object we are trying to hit.
MECHANIC'S KNIFE: Used to open and slice through the contents of cardboard cartons delivered to your front door; works particularly well on boxes containing upholstered items, chrome-plated metal, and plastic parts.
You are using them wrong, they are great for a laugh...
