Where I reckon they play best, and therefore our needs:
Back Pockets: Geary, White , Rice, Webster
Half Backs : D/Mac, Roberton, Savage, Coffield, Newnes, Paton, Langlands
Key Backs: Carlisle, Austin, Brown, Clavarino
Ruck: Pierce, Longer
Wing: Sinclair, Billings, Acres, Clark
Centre: Ross, Dunstan, Armitage, Steele
Rovers: Steven, Gresham, Phillips, Hanneberry
Small forwards: , Long, Kent, Lonie, Weller, ? Amon(P.A)
Key Forwards: McCartin, Marshall, Bruce
Medium Forwards: Membrey, Battle
Of the half backs, maybe Coffield and Paton can move into the midfield.
The Ruck looks really poor
Our wingers need to be superfit with the 6/6/6 formation
Gresham and Steven are our best clearance with pace players, would love them in the starting mids
If Newnes can't win a spot at HB....let's trade him, likewise Armo and Dunstan.
Keep Bruce, athletic tall forwards are hard to find. Cannot rely on Paddy (at all)
Prefer 2 quick midfielders in the draft. Smith and Caldwell? if we got 6 and 10
our team with players in best position

Re: our team with players in best position
Looking at the midfield- all I can see is slow, Steven excepted. Dunstan, Ross, Sinclair, Armo and even Clark. Longer has the speed of slow drying cement. All one-paced runners, and this is why we need to bring in some burst speed in the midfield. Can't see an easy fix to this in the short term.

I left out Steele as pointed out above, he is pretty quick.spert wrote: ↑Mon 15 Oct 2018 3:16pm Looking at the midfield- all I can see is slow, Steven excepted.

We need Gresham in their for pace, and hopefully Coffield comes on, he has seem real pace.
Nee!

Re: our team with players in best position
Hence the stupidity in recruiting Hanneberry on a 5 year deal. He is slow now, I dread to think what he'll be like in 3 years time- if he isn't retired or delistedspert wrote: ↑Mon 15 Oct 2018 3:16pm Looking at the midfield- all I can see is slow, Steven excepted.
