Smith too low after watching JLT.Bob Murphy just had Laird (1) and Smith (5) on his top 10 half back flankers.
Apparently according to Hawks board.
I wantWingard won't play but apparently Gunston is making strong progress in his recovery from his iliotibial band soreness

I think it is looking increasingly likely Greenwood will be available and selected for our R1 match v the Hawks. He had a good return via the SANFL trial and now a week off, so its like being back for two weeks.
Assuming the team from JLT 2 is the template, which is reasonable by observing its line-up, this leaves in my opinion two line ball choices, namely Hartigan or Keath and either Murphy or Jones. I really can't call the key back position. Hartigan is the more experienced but Keath the more naturally talented with more upside. With a finals window in view, I will go for Keath in order to get games into him. A similar state of affairs exist between Jones and Murphy and I will go the same way. I will say Jones based upon his superior natural ability, upside and with a view to September. When Pyke said picking the team will be difficult I think these are the sort of choices and dilemmas he had in mind.
Here then is my most likely R1 side:
Laird Talia Doedee
Smith Keath Milera
Seedsman Sloane Atkins
Lynch Jenkins Douglas
Betts Walker Greenwood
Jacobs M Crouch B Crouch
Int: Gibbs Jones Kelly Knight

You know, I always struggle with that word. I tossed up which one to go with. Both looked wrong.........hoped no one would notice
That is a strong side to put on the park. Even changing Keath for Hartigan and Murphy for Jones still makes us a very difficult team to beat if we are switched on. My one fear is that the Hawks, knowing they are inferior, will come out and go the knuckle as they are prone to do. If that happens, I hope our blokes stand up and deal thuggery for thuggery for a change.
Following last year’s debarcle I hope any semifit player is not rushed back into the AFL. THE MIGHTY THOR might have to be an exception. If he is not injured but lacks peak aerobic condition then it may be best for him to start in the AFL. If he plays in a Twos trial against Poort Maggots rather than against the Hawks, he will be even further behind the aerobic fitness of players in the AFL. With a fit Brouch, Sloane etc he can play mainly up forward while he is building up his fitness.
Statistically TMT is our most effective stoppage player (as measured by stoppage wins per stoppage). He plays a vital role in our structure.
Im sure the Port nuffties are having a go at both our Captains being on the beers 2 weeks out from round 1
I wantCGunstan to be right there on field after we've smashed them, which is what's gonna happen.
I don’t think he’ll care. He has premiership medals.I wantCGunstan to be right there on field after we've smashed them, which is what's gonna happen.

You define yourself and others by career?I'm going to guess you wear hi-vis clothing to work.

How very very shallow of you.
Relax guys, don't get salty, I was trolling Marty the same way he constantly trolls all of you on here. I thought that would have been obvious.We can’t all be mining moguls ya know. View attachment 634430
The next Thommo?It’s taken me awhile to realise Dougy has come to an end; probably because I didn’t want to believe it, but he looked S L O W two weeks ago.

Agreed - I've always loved Huey's opportunistic goals he unexpectedly smashes through with toe-pokes etcI want to see Greenwood in the forward 50 this year. He has the ability to be a goal-a-game mid rotation if we use him right.
You trolled and belittled every worker in here that is not white collar.Relax guys, don't get salty, I was trolling Marty the same way he constantly trolls all of you on here. I thought that would have been obvious.
Definitely worth some thought , we may need Harto on the smalls ala Robbie gray as Kelly is our only real shutdown defender for them and the rest are mainly offensiveWhen deciding between Keath and Hartigan for the final key defender spot could we go with... neither of them?
Talia with Doedee and Kelly.
How tall will the Hawks forward line be?
