Now that we're out of the NAB cup, most of us won't see the Tiges play until round one unless you live out in the country somewhere for a Challenge match. Therefore, based on what you have seen so far, what is your best round 1 22?

FB: McGuane...Thurstfield...Newman
HB: Raines...... Moore........Polo
C: Deledio....... Tuck.........Richo
HF: Cousins......Riewoldt....Edwards
FF: Brown........Bowden.....Morton

Ruck: Simmonds Foley Jackson

Interchange: Thomson Tambling Graham White

Emg: Schultz McMohan (I no it won't happen) Pattison

**** I wish we had a full foward
 
Re: Your Round Team

My round team would be a whole lot of fat blokes. Also, your team looks pretty much like mine but I'd have McMahon and Schulz/Pattison in for Thomson and Graham.

Re: Your Round Team

My round 1 lineup (at this stage):

B: Raines Moore Thursfield
HB: Newman McGuane McMahon
C: Richo Deledio Jackson
HF: Riewoldt Schulz/Patto* Cousins
F: Brown Hughes Morton
R: Simmonds Tuck Foley
I: Graham Thomson Bowden White
E: Edwards Schulz/Patto* Polo

Note: If Patto is fit I would play him at CHF, this allows Riewoldt to play as the 3rd tall and IMO is a much better role for him. If not then Schulz gets the position.
 
B: Raines Thursfield Moore
HB: Newman McGuane Polo
C: Richo Cuz McMahon
HF: Cotch Schulz Morton
F: Brown Riewoldt Edwards
R: Simmonds Tuck Foley
I: Patto Thomson White Bowden

E: Jackson Tambling/Hislop Cogs


Patto - is our best second ruck option, competes well around the ground, our other ruck options dont. He gives 100% out there, Graham to me looks like a lump of a lad that hasnt got alot of footy skill, also Patto like Simmo covers alot of ground. Vickery - Raw (but good signs)

McMahon - Play on the wing and let him run, has speed and usually a good kick, play him like a chance bateman.

Polo - I like in defence

Tambling - To earn his spot, not a regular unlesss for coburg atm.

Johnson - Will be in team yet his days are past him..

Jackson - Will be in team but I say for games he needs to be.

Cogs - emergency unless he comes good

Your team is pretty good but I'd have Vickery instead of Graham thats how much I don't rate Graham. That way Vickery can swap with Simmonds in ruck and both can push foward to stretch Carlton's defence. I would also find some way to sneak Thomson and Rance into the squad as they bring something to the team we lack. Tackling.

Tempted to have Johnson replaced by Thomson... but i'll give Johnno the benefit of the doubt.
 
Hey guys most of the teams posted are pretty similar.

I am intersted as to why Rance isnt in anyones teams.

He linked up well last night, had 16 touches and in my opinion showed more than Mcguane last week.

Thoughts?

I went with Jackson over Polo. I think that they play very similar rolls for us.. both can be attacking taggers. I just think Polo's form at the moment is superior to Jackson. However, you have to go with the recent history that Jackson has had on Judd.

Unfortunately, I can't fit Coughlan in, so I've gone with Thomson. Like the Polo/Jackson situation, they play for the same spot in the side.

Pattison pretty much automatically gets a game because we need the backup ruckman to help Simmonds out.

Edwards and White outperforming Tambling at this point in time, but I couldn't fit him in. How good is that? Good depth sign.

Oh, and this is provided Cotchin can't get up.

Yeah, a valid point for sure Morro. I really like Rance too. I just think with 80 - 90k at the MCG and a must win game, I think McGuane. Sure, a good stepping stone for Rance to be thrown in at the deep end, but McGuane, Moore, Thursty works so well for us.

I: Jackson -- Coughlan -- Thompson -- Pattison
E: Hughes -- Polo -- Raines

Sorry guys, I'm still yet to see what all the fuss is about over Riewoldt....call me crazy, but there's no way he's the answer to our KPF worries. And I'm willing to give Tambling one more season, otherwise Morton to a HFF and the Cleve-axe to a forward pocket and Hislop to EMG.
