If you was coach
If you was the coach of the saints in 2012 what positional changes would you make?
Schneider to a half back flank?
Fisher to centre half forward?
Goddard to Full Forward?
Riewold to the wing?
Schneider to a half back flank?
Fisher to centre half forward?
Goddard to Full Forward?
Riewold to the wing?
100 percent behind the saints 100 percent of the time

Secondly, I'd try Stanley at centre half back, maybe Saad and Milera on opposing wings, and Farren Ray on a half forward flank.

Re: If you was coach
Goddard to CHF/FF.
We need to take the focus off Riewoldt and (IMO) cannot go into another season with him being the sole tall target.
Plus, Goddard needs the responsibility. We may yet hang on to him long term if he's given it.
Riewoldt to FF/CHF.
Kosi as a true second ruck, floating forward.

I would have had a very different trade week. But from the players currently listed
B: Gwilt, Dawson, Dempster
HB: Gilbert, Blake, Fisher
C: Montagna, Hayes, Goddard
HF: Schneider, Riewoldt, Siposs
F: Milne, Koschitzke, Saad
Foll: McEvoy, Dal Santo, Steven
Int: Ledger, Ray, Armitage, Cripps
Siposs to play Ryan O'Keefe style role
Goddard to continue as a utility
Armitage a full time midfielder, first to come on when Lenny/Dal/Steven need a rest
Ray to swing forward occasionally
Saad to provide pressure and goals
Gilbert to be a tall midfield tagger against the likes of Judd/Goodes
Ledger adds to midfield rotations
Gram, Jones to Sandy. Raph needs to find some consistency before being considered a regular again. Cripps, Ledger get preference over Peake as long as form is ok.

I would stick Goddard at CHF, Riewoldt at FF. Milne and Saad the deep forwards with Siposs/Milera/Schneider rotating through there.
As for rucks, McEvoy clear number one, Kosi playing second fiddle, then dropping forward to provide another target. Could also allow BJ some time in the middle.
I would play Cripps, Fisher and Gilbert as my designated runners from defence. Dawson, Gwilt and Dempster/Polo as my more defensively minded backs.
I would try Kosi as CHB in the NAB cup to see what happens...
I would also look to recruit one of Joey Daye or Daniel Currie with one of the later picks in the draft. We need another developing tall on the list - both of these guys (more-so Daye) have shown some decent promise. Daye only loses his spot due to GC's huge number of ruckmen.
B: Dempster, Dawson, Gwilt
HB: Gilbert, Fisher, Cripps
C: Montagna, Dal Santo, Gram
HF: Siposs, Goddard, Schneider
FF: Milne, Riewoldt, Saad
F: McEvoy, Hayes, Steven
Int: Armitage, Ray, Kosi, SUB: Ledger
Em: Milera, Peake, Stanley

I'd also like to try Stanley in a Dustin Fletcher / Ben Reid type role.
Well you asked

Swap Joey and Schneids.
Bring in Ledger for Gram (not at CHB)
Siposs in for Ray.
Old enough to repaint, but young enough to sell
Unbalanced probably, but I like my centre line forward....and Dal back.Bernard Shakey wrote:Backs are unbalanced.SainterK wrote:B: Dempster, Fisher, Dawson

![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)
I just assumed Dawson would take the first tall, and Fisher would take the second if they have one (keeping mind a lot of sides don't have a monster second tall these days)
Don't forget this is my Rd 1 side and Gwilt comes in Rd 5

If I was coach I'd ask the board to resign for being so stupid in hiring me.
If however they decided to keep me:
As a top priority, I would demand bar service in the coaches box with party pies @ 1/4 time and chocolate crackles @ 3/4 time. Victory pizza and French champagne would follow the game win lose or draw.
I would hire Mick Malthouse to deal with the press after the game whilst I was having a rub-down in a King St establishment to re-establish my equilibrium.
Wouldn't be a bad job come to think of it.
