2020, will we have the best back line in the comp?

[Marcel Proust]

Name our best for 2020.
This is mine....

Grimes Astbury Vlastuin
Houli Broad Rance

?? Stack Baker Short (interchangeable)

 

[ForeverHardcore]

Really is the off season with all these posts gonna be a long summer

 

[Soberian Tiger]

All Australian backline next year. No need for any other clubs to get a mention.

Does Nathan Broad hold his spot in the Best 22 backline? As Vlastuin is a better intercept mark now than he was in 2017/18 and less of a running player.

I personally would see Broad dropping out with Short/Baker as the 6th/7th members of our backline with the emergencies being Broad (for the taller players) and Stack (for the running players).

Rance to play midfield lol

Broad has played 54 games, has not been involved in many losing sides:

'16 - 1
'17 - 1 (Tigers/Broad flag)
'18 - 3
'19 - 5 (Tigers/Broad flag x2)

I think he helps the better defenders, traditionally Rance and co. have gone to higher levels with Broad locking someone down

Yes.

2020 AA committee expected to give up and just let Dimma choose the backline, after Richmond gets a record for lowest “against” score in a season ever.

 

[Tango67]

Half backline to stay the same,
HB. Houli, Edwards, Short
B. Grimes, Astbury, Rance

Broad is seriously underrated by so many people..he rarely loses a contest and is nearly always in the right spot...

 

[Tenacious T]

Greatest backline since 2017.

And Grimes or Vlastuin can play the sweeper role with more confidence with Broad on a guy instead of Short or Baker

 

[THE_GUN]

Our backline will be so good we will have our defender punching the ball away from each other just to take the P155

At the risk of sounding crass they must get snow on them in winter
