Opinion Best team 2021

[tielgaz]

No one in their right mind is dropping Stanley.

Stanley smashed Marshall, who is suppose to be one of the best ruckman going around(Double the touches). Rat got 3 touches. He shouldn’t be in the conversation for the ruck position. Maybe sneek in the side if there is an injury to forward.

 

[Catsmaninamerica]

Sav probably keeps his spot, due to Melbourne’s tall forward line. They can’t afford to have Blicavs in the ruck if he ends up needed to quell Brown or Fritsch. So I imagine they’ll play hawkins and Sav deep, with Rohan and Cameron higher up the ground.

Logic would dictate that. But they will be happy to play henry and kolo as key defenders along with Henderson.

 

[Chinacats]

Sav out. I don’t mind 4 smalls up front, but Rohan will be in.
F50: Tom & jerry, Rohan, Miers, Dahl, close.
Simpson & Higgins in too somewhere.

I just don’t see Henry having the reach or height to go with brown or Fritsch - king absolutely torched him. And truthfully, with Stewart out, Henry’s much more value to us playing looser and intercepting. Blicavs probably has to go back, u less they get courageous and drop Zuthrie for Krueger.

Miers won’t okY next week.

From yesterday's team:

OUT - Sav, Holmes, Dahl, O'Connor, Zuthrie, Narkle (sub)
IN - Duncan, Tuohy, Rohan, Atkins, Miers

B: Atkins, Blics (2nd ruck), Kolo
HB: Bews, Hendo, Henry
C: Menegola, C. Guthrie, I. Smith
FO: Stanley, Danger, Selwood
HF: Higgins, J. Cameron, Rohan
F: Close, Hawkins, Miers
INT: Duncan, Parfitt, Tuohy, Simmo

Emergencies: O'Connor, Dahl, Zuthrie, Sav

Sub: O'Connor



Provided there are no injuries 'til finals/during finals - that's our best team for Week 1, IMO

I agree. I don’t think Scarlett and Scott do though.

Gees hasn’t oconnor fallen away from the player he looked like being early in the season.

Zuthrie is ‘Stewart lite‘ ATM. Can’t see him losing his spot.

Was about to post something along those lines. A shadow of his previous form Pre hammy. Not sure what has happened.
Looks lost

 

[goyoucatters]

I feel the same way re Stanley.

Don't we all? On second thought, don't answer that...

He looked like a top player two seasons ago. Remember the game where he ran then rifled a 50 metre left foot pass upfield

It was good to see him get involved more and hit some form in the 2nd half yesterday.

Certainly improved as the game went on. As you might expect from a player who has ended up missing almost half of our games so far this year.

not happening

 

[Catsmaninamerica]

not happening

I realise they won’t. So what it means is they’ll have to keep Sav in the team. Blicavs will have to be a defender from here on.

I share your preferred role for Henry, probably. But Henry is 4cm taller than Fritsch. Reach isn’t an issue.

Fritsch isn't much bigger than Zuthrie.

Blitz would be a perfect matchup for Big Ben Brown surely?

That's the conservative option isn't it and I doubt it wins us the flag.

Where is Simpson?

 

[you pick one]

Where is Simpson?

I can see him.

 

[GeelongFTW]

Where is Simpson?

under simmo in the interchange.

 

[dazbroncos]

I can see him.

If anyone is wondering how Simmo has such great vision and skills with the ball in hand... and how he can be so good... its pretty clear to me at least...


he's using the Force.
