This was just a look at what our team would look like with just our young players. See who has a spot on the team. I know it's not done well and some players are probably missing. Didn't really have time to do it properly. Just wanted to get the idea out for people to think about it and maybe give their opinion. Will edit it later down the track with peoples opinions.

Make it 24 and under at the start of the season you can have Hawkins/Sellwood - but if it's under 24 they both miss.

Hawkins is 24 1/2 so if you include him then you have to include Selwood & Varcoe

My team would be:

FB Guthrie Hamling Eadley
HB Thurlow Brown Murdoch
C T.Hunt GHS Duncan
HF Motlop Vardy Kersten
FF Menzel Walker Smedts
R Simpson Christensen Caddy
Int Cowan, Mcarthy, Schroder
EMG Bews, Burbury

KPD's: Our weakest area, I don't think any of them will forge significant AFL careers
Small/medium Defenders: I think we have an extremely promising group. 3-4 may go on to be excellent AFL players
Outside mids: I think it looks solid but Duncan (inside/outside) is the only top line prospect
Inside mids: I think we've got two top line talents (Caddy/Christensen) but maybe lack a big bodied option
KPF's: I think we've got a very good prospect in Vardy and decent prospects in Kersten, Walker. Considering Hawkins has a lot of years left we are perhaps overstocked.
Small/medium forwards: I think we are very strong here with top line talent along with a few likely types.

I think we're pretty well set for the future in terms of depth in every area bar KPD's. Whether or not we have the top line talent to be a premiership team remains to be seen though.

Seeing as we have so many tall forward prospects, you'd think a few would be trialled down back. Kersten has been at training, could definitely see Walker there too.

I would luv to see this team get a go against GWS...

Im not sure not sure it would win but @#$@#$ me it would give it a shake and you just never know....

Imagine them all with another 30 games and a full preseason....

There is a lot to like there....

Just add Walker at FB - and that team looks ok to me. The good news is GFC will pick up a player or two next season in the ND. That will add to this side.
