Take 5 players from other clubs add to yours

[The Old Dark Navy's]

If nothing else, this may show who people really respect from other teams.

If you could take 5 players in total from the other 15 teams and add them to yours, who would they be? Name your side with them in it? Maybe you would not take anyone from other clubs because you think your 22 are the best players in the league????

Guaranteed that any side would look a lot better. Proof perhaps that we are all just a handful of players away from success!

Here's mine:

Nathan Buckley
Wayne Carey
David Neitz
Michael Voss
James Hird

(b) Rice Silvagni Beaumont
(hb) Voss Neitz McKay
(c) Franchina Ratten Camporeale
(hf) Hird Carey Koutoufides
(f) Lappin Whitnall Porter
(rucks)Allan Buckley Bradley

(Int)Hulme Freeborn Hickmott Fletcher

You would be drooling over that half forward line!!!

[The Old Dark Navy's]

Sorry Drakey, I rely on people like yourself to let me know if I've missed something.

If this has been done to death already, I guess it will sink without a trace.

Maybe the newcomers to the site might find a use for it.

[Sydneyfan]

The players I'd add would be:

James Hird
Anthony Koutoufides
Wayne Carey
Nathan Buckley
Andrew McLeod

This would be the team I'd probably go for if everyone was fit:

B: Seymour Dunkley Nicks
HB: Saddington Schuable McLeod
C: Schwass Buckley McPherson
HF: Hird Carey Koutoufides
F: O'Loughlin Goodes Ahmat
Ruck: Stafford Cresswell Kelly

Interchange: Luff Williams
Mathews Bolton

Emergencies: Warfe Maxfield
Stevens

 

[Pessimistic]

There's a few clubs who would be just about there with the addition of on Nathan Buckley - He should think about that

So lets limit it to Nathan Buckley (but Crawf is still the captain) - But we'd have D Jarman back if he was younger.

Apart from that I'd go with the current Hawthorn youngsters.

Ryan O'Connor, Ricky Olarenshaw, David Calthorpe, no can't wish for them, the Roos already have. Heh Heh.

Sorry Shinners just having a bit of fun.

[Grendel]

West or Ratten would be the first id go for.

ODN yes it has been done before but that doesnt make it any less fun!

The others? Well assuming i only take WEST *Sorry Westy i hadda do it* then, everyone else would be young up and commers,
Black Simon,Yze,Braddie Johnson,Camporeale.

Funny that, all midfielders, oh well guess the keys are okay then!

 

[Westy Boy]

Out of Graham/Hay/Fletcher... just as an emergency for our overflowing talls in our backline

I'm sure you wont mind me taking Hay then Grendel

[Frodo]

Interesting that no-one drafted woewodin so far. Also that Carey is chosen so much. Surely he's past his best.

mine

Simon Black
Jeff White
Dustin Fletcher
Voss
Crawford

 

[Magpie-Fletch]

Good observation Tom FC, because if there is such a thing as a person having a second team, Brisbane would be mine(Its probably the one team I don't really hate with a passion).

 

[Lionsrock_15_26]

For the lions i'd take

1. Matthew Lloyd
2. Kouda
3. i'd take stevie lawrence back
4. hird
5. buckley

 

[Richmondfan#1]

I would choose
1. Brett Ratten
2. Matthew Lloyd
3. Dustin Fletcher
4. Trent Croad
5. Mark Mercuri or Michael Voss.

To do something different I'll pick 1 player from the other 15 teams:
Adelaide - McLeod
Brisbane - Voss
Carlton - Ratten
Collingwood - Rocca
Essendon - D Fletcher
Fremantle - Hasleby
Geelong - Spriggs
Hawthorn - Croad
Kangaroos - Carey
Melbourne - Woewodin
Port- Wanganeen (I hate him but he'll do)
St Kilda - A Thompson
Sydney - Goodes
West Coast - Cousins
Bulldogs - Eagleton

I wouldn't mind a few younger kids but I like the list I chose.
