Now that we have everyone on our list.......(because we wont use pre-season) we will only have rookies, what will be our "BEST TEAM IN 2005" (barring injuries)

B: L. Fisher, Penny, Hudghton
HB: Jones, Maguire, Voss
C: Baker, Hayes, Dal Santo
HF: Hamill, Riewoldt, Montagna
F: Milne, Gehrig, Koschitzke
RUCKS: Ackland, Harvey, Ball
INT: McGough, Thompson, Blake, Goddard
EMERG: Fiora, Powell, X. Clarke

Comments....Suggestions.

yeah i agree pretty much totally with that, i feel that guerra wont make the side as well. However i would rather powell on the half forward flank instead of montagna. I just feel that we need powell to run in the midfield a bit and we need some midfielders kicking goals. And he IMO is the person do that for us rotating with ball.

Apart from that yeah agree totally with the rest of the team, bench will always change depending on the development of players such as Ackland, fiora, clarkes, McGough, etc

If Ackland is the #1 ruck, then you could drop Blake. And use him for insurance. Ackland can swap with Kosi. Also, I'd have Goddard on the wing, and start Baker on the bench, using him for run with roles where necessary. Agree to start Powell on the ground, put Joey on the bench. Bring X onto the bench, for Blake.

Otherwise I can't fault it. Scary isn't it.

I think that it looks like a very good team, with depth, especially when you cant add the clarkes into the team.
And if we went with......
B: L. Fisher, Penny, Hudghton
HB: Jones, Maguire, Voss
C: Baker, Hayes, Dal Santo
HF: Hamill, Riewoldt, Montagna
F: Milne, Gehrig, Koschitzke
RUCKS: Ackland, Harvey, Ball
INT: McGough, Thompson, Blake, Goddard
EMERG: Fiora, Powell, X. Clarke

as the team, that would leave.......
Fiora, Powell, X. Clarke, Schwarze, Peckett, R. Clarke, Gram, Fergurson, S. Fisher, Brooks, Murray, Gwilt, McQualter, Stone, Pfitzner

Not bad springvale team.....
B: Fergurson, S. Fisher,
HB: Fiora, Stone, Gram
C: X. Clarke, Peckett, Gwilt
HF: R. Clarke, , McQualter
F: Murray,
RUCKS: Brooks, Powell,
INT:
And the Springvale team only needs to fit in 9 of the best players. Premiership for St. Kilda and Springvale. (Barring injuries) TOUCH WOOD!!!!!!!

Yeah pretty good. Yeah i was thinking that about Blake as well "SaintsRadio". But he is very versatile. I put Ackland ruck because then Kosi is in the foward line and we then have 4 QUALITY talls there. Very hard to match up on.

 

[Snickers]

And Ackland CAN push foward and kick goals..... he isnt a Knobel, he can push foward and kick goals and he does it pretty well. All the new boys at the Saints seem to be fitting in pretty well. http://saints.com.au/default.asp?pg=news&spg=display&articleid=179593
