What Midfield Combo Did You Like?

[DaveyBlues]

I'm not sure who else was in it, but the 1 we had in the 3rd quater consisting of Gibbs and Cloke looked absolutely awsome. I gotta say Gibbs played incredible given the opportunity and should definately be given a regular run on ball.

Hadley! I thought he added composure and a strong body! good to see him play well, have high hopes for him!

Definitely Hadley. His effort last night was very underrated by Blues fans. Why do you think Bryce was finding the pill easier to get to in the 3rd qtr?

When Judd's up and running, he'll predominantly be beside Stevens and you'll find a number of the younger blokes rotating thru the third spot.......as for the rucks well thats a million dollar question......ackland when fit is a bigger body, but not the long term option.......cloke does ok, butgives away inches to the comps best big men......kruzer and hampson will be the combo a few years down the track.....patience is required in that area......of course big setanta may help out a little also......plenty of runners will go thru the middle...carazzo, walker, scotland, betts etc.....the more they mix it up with either stevens or judd as the mainstays the better!!

I liked it when it was Gibbs, Murphy and Hadley. Gibbs was superb and they worked together well to get it out.

Our best previous convo in recent years was Bentick, Kouta and Stevo.

Not really. Hammer is far and away our best ruckman even at this early stage. Will be no.1 ruck. Led the game in hitouts yesterday and didn't even play much ruck in the 2nd half.

Me too.
Hadley is exactly what we need a big bodied midfielder who can get first hands on the ball and actually dispose of the ball properly and to advantage. I see Hadley and Carazzo as competing for a similar role. Bentick is going to struggle to get a game this year I think.

Gibbs was superb in that 3rd quarter, but I would still only rotate him through there in bursts, like we did last night. My ideal starting 4 would be:

Hampson
Judd
Stevens
Murphy
