Fit, thats a good side.
 
Please note: I've picked the team based on their inclusion in the 22, not their listed position. Cue the "Player A shouldn't be on the wing etc" brigade.

NOTE: There are 11 players in the 22 in the early stages of their career, but deserve their spot as it currently stands anyway. If Shaw can get them playing near to their potential (as individuals) , and more importantly, playing highly co-ordinated team football, this 22 should be a challenge to beat.

All good for my best 22. Just replace Daw with Corr.
 
My round 1 team is
B: Corr McKay McDonald
HB: Perez Tarrant Zlliams
C: Scott Higgins Polec
HF: Walker Larkey Taylor
F: Thomas Brown Zurhaar
R: Goldstein Cunnington Simpkin
I: LDU Jed Hayden Hollands
E: Dumont Walker Atley Ziebell EVW Mahoney Bonar
Majak the only one culled. Goes to show how bad we think his body has gotten that he doesnt survive. Clearly Corr is his replacement.
 
Time to wake this baby up.

- Assuming everyone is available
- Taking into account the balance between player development and winning today.

Today I'd go with:

Corr, McKay, Hayden
J Walker, Tarrant, Perez
Polec, Cunnington, Stephenson
Thomas, Comben, Simpkin
Taylor, Larkey, Garner
Goldstein, LDU, McDonald
Int: Dumont, Anderson, Scott, Young

Emergency in rough order: Ziebell, Zurharr, #2, Turner, Atu, Xerri, Atley, #11, W. Walker, Hall, Bonar

Notes:
- I'd give Mahony first shot over Turner.
- Comben over Xerri (Tilthorpe?)
- Garner over Zurharr. Z needs to do some work.
- Ziebel doesn't have a spot. Admittedly that leaves the forward line light for leadership but making do with Garrner, Simpkin and Larkey.
- Sad to leave Atu out and he could change that over pre-season. We have enough similar with Taylor, Thomas and Stephenson.
- A bit concerned about lack of run from the backline, but that is the tradeoff putting Walker in and running McDonald in the midfield. There's a fair bit of flexibility for rotations.
- Don't see a spot for Walker in the forward line. He's too one-dimensional to play forward: I'd rather have Xerri developing.
