B: Goater Corr Dawson
HB: Sheezel Pink McKerchar
C: Scott LDU Stephens
HF: Stephenson CCJ Durrsma
F: Zurhaar Larkey Curtis
R: Xerri Wardlaw Lazzaro
I: Fisher Shiels Ford Powell
S: Phillips
E: Greenwood Tucker Comben

My gut feel. Greenwood and Tucker could easily get picked along with Biggy.

I reckon this is my closest prediction in the 17 years I’ve been on here

Oh no not Nick Brown. He is terrible. And Sam McClure lookalike FFS.

Made sure to watch every umpire as closely as reasonably possible when I could last year, and Brown and Whetton are pound for pound the two worst imo. Putting them together is just unbelievable

 

[swaeney]

No chom?

 

[Val Keating]

I think he can do both. You need all defenders to be able to offer something offensively these days.

Greene would be an ask for him, but why not? He's played on all sizes over pre season. A good job could be his arrival as a player.

Yeah maybe. Doesn’t seem like the role he’s been groomed for, but maybe he has it in him.

 

[Sticksphat]

RHJ as an emergency is interesting. Only read the comments on the last VFL game and sounds like he got more involved. Northball looks like you need to be able to run ball.

 

[Frank Thring]

I'm pumped.

 

[Ischenko]

Ford and Tucker played a lot last year
WP not in 25 with Jy out
Starting to look a bit grim for him

Might just be an issue of inside mid depth? Wardlaw LDU and Powell clearly ahead at this stage, and with Jy out we need the defensive run and experience that Shiels and Tucker provide.

 

[Merlin007]

You can see why they've gone for Shiel and Tucker - 2 draft debutants, 2 others from last year, 2 players from outside clubs, plus Pink - any side with that profile needs some senior glue

Shiels goes underrated a bit on here. Was the glue for the team on multiple occasions last year

 

[Nylex]

V happy for Lazzaro after a massive pre season. Hope he goes well

 

[shintemaster]

Almost spot on with what I was expecting / hoping. About as good a team as we have to roll out round 1 which is nice.

Probably why Shiels is playing, only one to have played over 150 games!

So will Chom play 2’s? Or is he injured again?

 

[Horizons_00]

Shiels makes so much sense

Tackling pressure, experience and leadership

 

[the big lebowski]

He was never playing round 1.

Fantasy stuff

 

[LB2Snake]

He was never playing round 1.

But he will play 2’s I hope.

l'm thinking he still needs more learning for playing in defence...

 

[Heaps of fun]

Great video, but if Shiels and Tucker are starting with Powell sub, it’s a disgrace.

JETS JETS JETS

 

[DesertRoo]

Sheez and the Warlord starting mids round 1;
Lets go……

 

[the big lebowski]

But he will play 2’s I hope.

He’s not injured according to all reports.

He’s behind fitness wise given his delayed pre season.

And behind learning a position/role he’s never played before.

 

[Jasemon]

You’d think with the limited pre-season that Ford will be the substitute. Like for like if Curtis or Duursma are having a downer.

 

[Passmore]

But he will play 2’s I hope.

No 2's this week.
