Redhage over Fisher

 

[DanWCE]

Cotton will play this arvo. Has been unwell. Not sure what we can expect from him, may be quiet.

 

[FKASC]

Didn’t Fisher spend most of his career at the Tigers?

This was the 30th anniversary team


Changes I'd make
Cotton -> Lisch
Lisch -> Harvey

The controversial call...
Damien Martin (c) -> Mike Ellis (c)

The other option is playing ellis as the Shooting Guard on the Bench with Martin as the Point Guard. Over the course of the Wildcats history I would personally think ellis. Lisch the better player but Ellis more impact on the club imo.

Yeah it's a tough call

Pinder being in there also isn't one that sits well, but comes down to where you draw the line on morality vs on court performance.

 

[Ambrose Burnside]

Wildcats hey? Some teams have all the luck.

 

[Bender_]

Ah the golden age of the NBL, before Ricky Grace was struck down with Wiggles and Giggles related injuries.

 

[Godfather32]

Pfft how could you leave Trevor Torrance off that list?

Watto all the way

 

[Godfather32]

Redhage over Fisher

Nah all respect to Redhage but Fisher is the better player

[RookiePick]

Big Fish.

We're like the Eagles, too many quality bigs for these all time teams.

The controversial call...
Damien Martin (c) -> Mike Ellis (c)

It's a call that is neither controversial nor sits quite right. Wildcats fans in their 30's and 40's have been pretty spoilt through the journey.
