I rarely come down hard on kids in their first few years, and I also have the utmost faith in our recruiters judgments. But I'm really struggling to understand what they saw in Roberts, based on his year in the VFL.GUH, I like you naming three bold changes to the senior team and naming those you would replace too. However I can't see HHK pushing Reid out of the team just yet, barring injuries. Also, HHK is still on the come back trail from injury.
Bloods86, compared to your VFL team, I would move McAndrew to ruck, Ladhams to the forward line and Owen to the interchange. I would also switch Sheather and Magor. Plus I wouldn't mind Mitchell playing on the wing in Campbell's place but then I can't figure out where to put Campbell - so maybe can live with that one.
I think Sheldrick is in front of Konstanty and needn't worry too much. In the longer term they have very different roles to play (inside mid v small pressure forward), and, in the short term, Sheldrick has a head start - he's a year older and has a harder body. Assuming Roberts' best chance into seniors is via the same position, he's the one that I think has more to worry about.
