What is everyone's opinion of Sutcliffe VS Sherridan to make way for the "AA Defender" Michael Johnson?
Sherridan could stay to add to the midfield rotations OR does Sutcliffe stay so he can play as the sub.

For me Sutcliffe should be sub. Seemed to relish the intensity of finals in Geelong. If we get an injury, adding another final experience to his name would hold the club in good sted for a potential GF
Sutcliffe has been fantastic this year and did not look out of place against Geelong. He's also the perfect sub, providing a lot of run and flexible for a role in defense, the midfield and up forward. I would be AMAZED if Sheridan is picked in front of him this week. I was cursing the TV, when Sheridan's first possession nearly caused a major turn over at half back against Geelong and when he was in no mans land (leading the defender to Hill) for the final goal of the game.

Hmm. I though it was fantastic gut running myself. He came off half back to be there. That defender would have been free to attack the ball carrier if he hadn't had to choose between that and zoning off.
Sutcliffe was very good against Geelong and should stay in the team. Bit more experienced and better with ball in hand, also is more versatile at this stage of their careers.

Sutcliffe played great against the cats, so in my opinion he is defiantly in. I would go one step further in saying I think he should start on the field.
No idea who should be sub instead of him? Any ideas?
No doubt this is how they will line-up, arguably the strongest all year. Will take some beating.Sutcliffe was very good against Geelong and should stay in the team. Bit more experienced and better with ball in hand, also is more versatile at this stage of their careers.

No weak players, great side. People should look at this team before suggesting we should trade in anyone.

Merely as an excuse to watch this again - I agree with you. I am not sure what is wrong with Sheridan providing an option here. His sprinting hard forward caused a situation where Fremantle players outnumbered Geelong players ahead of Hill, and he moved into a position that gave Hill four distinct options ahead of the ball.
Yep, imagine trying to fit Ibbo, Clancee and even Mora in next year. There will be some extremely unlucky boys to miss out.
Yeah, spot on Paracleet. My mistake, I thought he came from the forward line. After watching the reply from Clogged, you're right, it distracted Varcoe from running at Hill.
Will be a baptism of fire if true.sounds like a big guy.
*sigh* another hour b4 lists are out...

agree no weak players, and that Clancee + Ibbo would fill this role. But i'd prefer to have somebody other than D.Pearce off Half-Back and think Conca more suited to role.
With Clancee + Ibbo in different story though, however conca would provide a better DEFENSIVE option than D.Pearce.
It's not only how well Sutcliffe plays when he comes on as sub which makes him such a strong candidate but just as important is his versatility;I'm picking Sherro to be the unlucky one.
