Geelong's team
I, like many others have been saying this for a few years now, When will the club clean out the DEADWOOD????
Surely they must get rid of the likes of Corrigan, McKay, O'Brien, Simpson, Lowther, Baldwin, Mensch and J.Mooney.
It appears that Sholl and McGrath will retire at the end of next season, or be told they are no longer wanted. And the likes of Wocjinski, Rahilly, Houlihan, Kilpatrick, Street and even Riccardi might be on their last chance
Since once again we have failed dismally to attract a decent forward, attention must turn to building kids into our stars.
We've got a plethora of decent kids, Spriggs, Clarke, Ling, Enright, Chapman, Scarlett, Foster, Hunt, Bray and Corey. We need however at least another 6 or 7 from the draft.
From there on we have have to build the side in 3 divisions of 6. A backline revolving around Scarlett, the midfield revolving around King and a froward line revolving around ..... (Of the current list, C.Mooney or Ling look the best bet, both are young and strong).
Then it is just a simple case of filling in the gaps.
Back - Scarlett, Harley, Sanderson........
Centre - King, Spriggs, Clarke, Hunt, Milburn........
Forward - Ling, Mooney, Burns..........
We need about 6 regular senior players, and the rest should fight the remaining spots.
