Thats 21 names. Are the other 25-30 (8-10 players each) coming from just the 3 remaining Sandy, Dandy and Oak???

 

[Fev0lution]

Sandy players being told tonight i believe

 

[F/D]

Id like to congratulate a GUN footballer with the best attitude to life and his footy and that is Bronik Davies...

LynchDog can back me up here...

Bronik is a natural born leader and Im not sure if he got a leadership gig with the Knights this year? But he thoroughly deserves to be named...

A product of us Alphington boys and he is just a treat to watch and doesnt drink or anything.....Well done Bron.

Brendon Tyquin and Jake De Sousa were abit stiff not to get an invite i thought they would be a fair chance after there preformances in the first 4 games, but congrads to the Jets boys who made it wish use all the best

2004 SQUAD:
Calder - 13 players
Dandenong - 6 players
Eastern - 4 players
Northern - 7 players
Oakleigh - 9 players
Sandringham - 7 players
Western - 6 players
Total = 52 players

In the first 2004 squad and on 2005 club lists:
Calder - Shane Neaves, Sam Robertson
Dandenong - nil
Eastern - nil
Northern - Nick Carnell, Ryan Jackson, Mark Lynch
Oakleigh - Beau Dowler
Sandringham - Simon Philips, Shane Valenti
Western - nil

 

[m.diddy]

If so do you reckon it is likely he'll get a game?

Wasnt James Quinton playing for Metro?...Quinton plays Knights...or played sorry.

At the Bullants now I think, down in the reserves backline. Interesting hair thing going on as well, doing his best at trying to stand out.

But yes he was in the initial VM squad last year.

Yes, he is down at Northern Bullants...

You heard of a young man called Shannon Young?

Plays with Calder and only 15-16 and playing in the 18s comp....

Whats your thoughts on him...

 

[Footymad]

Been playing up forward and the ruck this year and has been consistent after missing round 1 through injury. Beat Neaves from Calder clearly in the ruck and I think Neaves is the candidate for Vic metros number 1 ruck spot.

I think he is a better rebounding KP backmen where I believe he has played most of his junior footy. Thats where I think metro should try him out.
Answering your question - there aren't many great talls at metro this year and other than Dowler I don't think the KP's are as clear cut compared to past years. He is as good as any to get a run

[Z_K]

Weaver, GH or anyone.

How is Myle Krakouer going ATM..? Improved any since last year, possibility to be drafted (it seems we offended his father) etc etc..?

 

[Sezzac1]

Thanks for the lists GH

So close

First a huge congrats to Sam Carpenter Mighty effort and thoroughly deserved it on his performances in the first 4 rds. Your mum will be over the moon Sammy.

Few interesting picks.

Evan Panozza. The lad has been going okay but has been on and off the bench for Eastern.

Nahas is dead stiff. IMHO deserved a shot well before Krakouer and Freemantle.

Bowe instead of Curtis. Lot of possessions don't always guarantee a spot.

Mitch Cuthill a nuggety little back pocket for the Falcons has been rock solid and a real quiet achiever. Congrats to him.

Big Mathew Bekker from Murray (195cm and 101 kg) will make it very hard for Warnock (204cm and 77kg) to get around at the throwins if both get a game.

Stephen Owen after only 2 games. Kicked 6 in his first game and 1 in his 2nd.

Dale Thomas a neat little goal sneak is a nice choice.

Thanks mate.

 

[Weaver]

Weaver, GH or anyone.

Had a very good start to the year. Probably Oakleigh's best. Not much size about him but has very tidy skills. Seems to lack stamina, his first halves are much better than his second.

How does he stack up to Andy, in your opinion...?

 

[Weaver]

Nahas is dead stiff. IMHO deserved a shot well before Krakouer and Freemantle.

I would have had Krakouer, Nahas and then Freemantle.

Probably academic anyway. There are a LOT of little rovers in that team and Metro tends not to pick more than two.

Magner, Wilson, Douglas, Bowes, Lyons, Nicholls, Adams, Freemantle, Carpenter, M.Thomas, Phillips, Carnell, Anderson, Davies and Valenti are probably all fighting for 1-2 spots at most.

Jones, Hocking, Murphy, Jackson, White, Gordon and Laidlaw probably have the inside running on the midfield spots.

Houli the small forward. Bentley, Cook, Krakouer, Kelly on the flanks.

One of Rees Thomas, Jake Muir or Evan Panozza.

I'd go for -

B: Douglas, Clifton, Gill
HB: Jones, Ainger, Cook
C: Bentley, Hocking, Jackson
HF: White, Muir, Krakouer
F: Houli, Dowler, Markovic
R: Warnock, Laidlaw, Murphy
I: Spangher, Kelleher, Gordon, Kelly
E: M.Thomas, Sutcliffe, Anderson

 

[Weaver]

And for Country, from that squad ... hhmmm ... tougher ...

B: Looby, Wormald, J.Eddy
HB: Higgins, Drum, Crook
C: Selwood, Ellis, Pendlebury
HF: Duscher, Fraser, Hansen
F: Simpkin, McGuane, R.Eddy
R: Johnson, Dunne, Dephine
I: West, Kennelly, Grigg, Carlisle
E: Owen, Clifton, Muston

Have to say that Country looks better this year. Particularly in the key positions.

 

[The Opposition]

I'd go for -

B: Douglas, Clifton, Gill
HB: Jones, Ainger, Cook
C: Bentley, Hocking, Jackson
HF: White, Muir, Krakouer
F: Houli, Dowler, Markovic
R: Warnock, Laidlaw, Murphy
I: Spangher, Kelleher, Gordon, Kelly
E: M.Thomas, Sutcliffe, Anderson

Good effort Weaver however I would almost put my life on it that Ryan Anderson will get a game. I would put him ahead of Jackson on the wing if they had to put at least one Northern player in there. Anderson is a gun and will definately get drafted, genuinely nice kid, leader and can play a wider variety of positions. Just my opinion though...

 

[Sezzac1]

Tidy teams Weaver.

Danny Stanley?

Wormald at FB for VC How did you arrive at that one and not Tyler, McLeod, Hansen or Carlisle ???
