Looks really good - right amount of kids.

Gotta remember though that there are now 21 players in a team - with one sub thanks to these stupid new rules. I wonder how we will play this.

Are will still 100% confident Gards will play on this year? Seems like it at this stage, but he still has another week or so to make his final decision. I wonder who will be our 22nd man... A ruckman? A runner? Do we lose a defender?

Kosi???

Lets hope that on 2010 that it was injuries restricting him....

Otherrwise you would expect that Ben would incremently improve again, as he has done in each year so far..and would gaine the nod.

Ben's weakness is his ruckwork to date...but Kosi is no better than this.

Ben's second efforts and groundwork is far better than Kosi's....and Ben plays "smart" football.



However with Lyon remarking on the Pies marking options up forwar it would seem we will go for Roo/Kois an Gilbert all forward.

Third list lodgemnt is Wednesday 24th NOV.- he has 3 days.

I find phantom teams pointless....

[3rd generation saint]

I'd still have Roo at CHF and Kosi FUll Forward alternating into the ruck.

[BigMart]

is that a phantom team....I thought that those players were actually playing for us.....it is an IMO strongest team...

it is not a great deal of difference...replace two GOP (at best) with Armo and Steven. Dempster with Clarke for offensive purposes. Forgot J.Geary, who would be an in...and McEvoy was given a BATH in the GF....Kosi was very seviceable as a #2....also like Blake as a #2....IMO he should be the SUB....most flexible player, goddard aside (and I don't think he will be a sub)
