[Eagles_Rock]

no morton?

What's your problem? I already put him.

 

[coasting]

no morton?

Haven't seen enough of him to make a judgement on his readiness for AFL football. Whose spot does he take?

 

[juDDa]

[Eagles_Rock]

No, the only thing I edited was M.Embley- I put Aaron Edwards there on the emergency then thought it was a bad idea. OK???

Grow up. As for your team.... if that is our best 22 when fit, we'll win the spoon.

Wooden & Adkins are hard done by, but they could easily take the spots of Butler/Waters/Braun/Jones/Banfield etc on the basis of form/injury.

Gardiner to pinch hit on the bench up forward, I wouldn't expect him to have a huge load this season, coming back from a year off and a pretty serious knee injury.

PS - Give me one reason why Rudeforth would be in the best 22 in 2005, after spending 3 years on the rookie list, and being overlooked for promotion to the senior list numerous times?

don't think judd will be in he forward pocket! i think if he does go forward he will take sampi's place on the half forward fplank and sampi will move to the pocket! as we all know he is very quick and classy and can take a grab! 189cm he can almost be playing at CHB for us! apart from that, not a bad side at all. looks capable of beating the bigger sides!

Waters, B. Jones, R.Jones, Nicoski, Staker, Selwood,Wooden, Hansen all deserve to be in the best 22.

i think if we get everyone fit and ready to go, everyone will be fighting for a spot in the team. this will be awesome as i think in previous years, the eagles players could have crap games and not worry. at least they boyz r going to be playing with more passion, pride and courage so they can keep their spot in the team.

 

[Luke Logan]

the eagles will be a top five side, next year.

[Swarbs]

makes me kinda wish banfield would retire.

 

[doog. where's my car]

this has been done so many times by so many people, that i thought why not be apart of that.
then i thought eh.
I will say this though.
Most positions are arbitrary(me spelk good)(example kerr on a flank) cause everyone gets rotated like a muthaF#$%a. Also will no injuries you userly go with a fairly old(expirienced) side but for the point of the exercise...

You need two fit ruckmen, Cox, Seaby.
Gardner should be in the side and by all indications he will rotate with seaby in foward line and bench.

Juddlow and fletch belong as ruck-rovers joining cousins in the square.
(why is it most captians play C)

Glass and doogs are clearly our best options at either end and phil and wirra their pocketed buddys.

If fit then Gasper is our best option at CHF because even if can't run out of site in a month nor get high stats, he is the best creater(sp), he gives the foward line real structure. since he is cursed, he prolly won't ever get fully fit and we might play him at 70/80% and he wont show any of what he can. So i say hansen is our best here he is a dead eye dik and will iron out his defencive game.

CHB hmmm lynch played there most in 2004 so I guess he is the obvious choice. I remember when Hansen was keen for a game he asked woosha if he could go for the CHB position but, was told the team had plans for him and to keep at it for the CHF possie. Hunter showed plenty but to me he is ideal as the third tall. Which means as long as you have your 3 talls you can mix'm round to adjust to the opposition.

so this is mine(very unimaginative)

R:Cox, Judd, Fletch

int:Chipper(best sub in the biz), Seaby, Jeeves, Waters
Maybe add Staker (hmm bit of a tall bench) maybe wooden for staker. even though I hate wooden.

Oh SHlTE i forgot banners yeh swap him for Hmmm damn lack of injuries
