Well not sure I think our plan pre al clarko was that we'd have heavy midfield rotations. So IF we start with Goldy- Comben ruck/fwd. Then we have LDU, Cunners, Simpkin, Phillips and Powell it all kind of makes some sense.

I can't see the point in having Wardlaw, Simpkin, Phillips, LDU, Cunners & Powell on the list if they're not bi-positional. Then of course they've given Curtis midfield time recently.

I think our mid options and fwd structure will be a handful for many sides soon enough.

I think Simpkin will play predominantly midfield this year and will then transition to a wing over the next 12-24 months.

[The acurate one]

Goldstein - Cunnington - LDU - Phillips is a legit centre square lineup, Jy coming in from HF and TT coming in from HB, Scott and Taylor/Shiels on the wings, I can see that working.

At this stage Jy would be the most effective at HF out of himself, LDU, Phillips and Powell.

We're at the perfect stage for these kind of moves, see what you've got and where you've got it.

wouldn't be banking on TT just yet. Has plenty of work to do.

I think or feel we may think we lack a little up fwd and think Simpkin could assist us. Time as they say will reveal all.

Can't see Chom doing any sort of rucking. Has not been in any of those drills during the pre-season. Not that he couldn't, he just hasn't.

He had a run in the ruck on Wednesday.

Most sides have about 4 main mids plus 1-2 50/50 and another maybe 1 surprise. Cunnington probably will bow out at the same time as Wardlaw comes in. So I think we're about set. Plus Simpkin can play a bit of wing and half forward as well.

In his time at the Hawks Clarko ran a lot of players through the midfield.

Mitchell and Lewis were the main ones, but players like Sewell, Shiels, Hodge, Rioli, Burgoyne all ran though their. Bruest and Poppy had the odd run through the middle as well. There were others over the journey, Langford played as a mid in one flag year.

He had pretty set wingers in Hill and Smith.

I like our main setup to be around LDU, Simpkin, Cunners and Goldy with about 4 to 5 others capable of going through during a game.

I don’t remember as many match sim games in previous pre seasons? Are we doing more or have I simply not noticed?

 

[DuckYeah]

We don’t have that many with kids do we?

Ziebs, shiels, hall, cunners, greenwood, Goldy that’s it I think?

LDU better start rootin soon.

 

[DuckYeah]

I am sure he'll be on rotation through the middle.
Just did he spend much time fwd last season? I canny remember.

I think he was asked to do too much through the middle last year. A fair 2 thirds rotation not 80% of midfield minutes. We’ll get better football from him, shouldn’t be as fatigued.

Eddie flies as Luke gets trodden on. (This was last Friday, so possibly why he sat out the match sim today.)

If you want guys rotating between HFF and Mid then maybe you have the captain lead by example and start in the least preferable position without any complaint.

Makes it hard for the others not to buy in.

Surprised at Simpkin at HF considering he just won the BnF playing on ball.

I look at it slightly different. Means cunners is back fit and firing and Will Phill is healthy and taken a huge step forward!

Powell looks more likely than Phillips from what I’ve seen. Either way I don’t see either of them pushing Simpkin out.

Surely Larkey the deeper key foward!

I actually like Chom deeper than Larkey. Souv can use his tank to push up higher and work into space and Chom is a better mark better in a contested situation.
