Best 23 for 2026

[HBFlanker]

It'll drop when we stop playing cats in his position.

I like Konstantys, at least he goes hard and can run, but to have FBGZ on the sidelines whilst this dude barely finds his boot from his own hands feelz counterproductive.

Hasnt he kick 3+ in a game? Don't know if it's nothing. We'll go with little.

I recall a set shot from 45 on the boundary....

If Duursma isnt doing enough to displace Konstanty then he will be delisted at seasons end.

And rightly so.

They don't play the same role though. Ever seen Duursma tackle? Or chase? JK has scored 3 less goals than NGZ even though he's played a year less. Well he must've chased and tackled as he has the 14 tackles over his 2 years, while JK had 79 last year. It's not JK that he needs to displace.

Yeah i know what you mean.

I think JK gets replaced by Dovaston.

Haha you're probably right. I'll be happy with one effective tackle. That's probably 1 more than JK.

I would say.

I don't think that Dovaston has the tackling ability, nor intent. He's a chirpy goal sneak.

How the mighty have fallen - LMac, CCJ and Kostanza not even sighted. Would comfortably say that none of these three would have suitors at the other 18 clubs (including Tassie). So the question is why do we have them on our list? Which is what your selection is pretty much stating.

[roos_fanatic08]

Can we please please please go with Blamires/Hardeman/Kerch/McDonald as our medium defenders? With Goater to replace McDonald once he gets some continuity.

I can live with that.

Just don’t want Daniel nee Dinkers anywhere near it!!!

McDonald available for selection

He can play the third tall tweener role on lukosious

 

[SunnyBoner]

Is Hardeman expected to be right?

Not sure but i hope he is. He's going to be such a great player for us. If not I'm tempted to put Parker or RHJ there and see how it goes.

Kerch/Parker to rotate through the midfield and half back.

Agree BUT until then :

Foll: Xerri, LDU, Sheezel
Int: McKercher, Parker, Konstanty, Darling, Hansen Jnr

Kerch/Parker to rotate through the midfield and half back.

I sense LMac won't be match fit for the Power. We need everyone at 100% - if Hardeman is not fit then Parker or HRHJ takes his place.
