McDonald & MacMillan will both play ahead of Ahern in the backline.

Well they both can’t and Shaw was the one who made MacMillan come back via the VFL.

So you have an issue with a single slot?

Next.

Plenty of unknowns yet with how Shaw will structure. Will Daw be ready? Jacobs?

Plenty of "next's"

Lol,

What selections do you have an issue with bubba?

How dare you put his love child Mcdonald in the twos.

For the VFL list, I Hope we pick up an experienced VFL level half back and big bodied mature midfielder (that can take the pressure off the kids later on in the season). A genuine swing man key position swing man (like Close was in 2018) would be very handy too.

Wanna bet he plays round 1 if he's fit?

Bring it on.

With the 2020 list now finalized, my early attempt at what our depth looks like.

As you can see, if we finally get a decent run with injury, there's no reason given some of the experience in this VFL side, that it couldn't win the flag.

The below shows how annihilated the VFL side was at times over the last 2-3 years.

That midfield should absolutely dominate VFL level. That backline should also be bloody formidable, at one stage it was almost our AFL defence.

Bit harsh on xerri on the bench and behind Comben

I think Comben will be developed as a pure KPP.

Xerri will be the rotating ruckman, he’s got the more mature body as well.
 
Toby Pink from the Swans has headed your way. Could be a gem. Big fast and a good kick. Surprised Swans delisted him of the Rookie list. 3 years at the Swans so he is in good nick.

Toby Pink = The Bits

You can argue the toss about 5-6 of the selections but it clearly highlights that our list is in pretty good shape. A good run with injury and the VFL team will be hard to beat.

Nice finally got someone on a previous afl list after losing all our best vfl players

Hopefully a few more names to be added

Would be good if they listed all the players who re-signed from last year

Needs to be playing AFL by Round 6 or he lose all confidence and ability in the VFL under that Goose Loader.
I just hope Perez can get going and play AFL and be a 200+ game player for us as I’m sick of seeing players like Turner, McDonald, McMillan getting games in the AFL it’s time for Perez and other players we draft play AFL not VFL.
