FB - Bonar - Mckay - Hayden
HB - Perez - McGuinness - Young
C - Scott - Phillips - T.Powell
FOLL - Xerri - Davies-Uniacke - Simpkin
HF - Stephenson - Comben - Thomas
FF - Taylor - Larkey - Zurhaar
INT - Mahoney - Bosenavulagi - Lazzaro - Spicer - Ford - P.Walker - W.Walker
Starting to really come together this young group.
Quite clear from this that the midfield & forward line are now stacked. A bit riding on Comben coming on, however I think worst case we can get Larkey a second fiddle via FA. The forward line is full of X-Factor. Whilst the midfield is extremely talented. As I've said, we can pretty much bank a mid with our first next year also (Horne, Sinn, Chesser).
Currently (non u22 best 22) our backline is our most experienced line, which will explain probably why it's our weakest in our u22 best 22. I'd say Mckay & Perez are my sure things. Bonar & Haydens improvement in 2021 will be interesting. Have put W.Walker there to fill the side, but understand he's more of a wing/forward. Corr & McDonald age bracket really helps, as they are both 26 and have a good 5 years in them before we really need to address it too much. I've listed McGuinness but it's a long shot IMO.
Key Priorities moving forward:
- Keep adding talented mids. Get over it people, star midfielders win flags. Give me 1 of the top 3 or 4 next year Brady.
- Running HBF. Think we need another Perez style running defender with elite skills - Perhaps P.Walker is their hope for this spot.
- Running Wingman. This could be Stephenson, Spicer, W.Walker, P.Walker, but it's a "watch this space" for mine. Would like another Bailey on the other wing.
- KPP Depth - Need a post Corr/Tarrant plan & a Comben contingency. Happy to address via trade/FA if required. I'm not interested in adding one with a top pick.
What else?
