Johnson & Saad and Sippos

Post: # 1165891Post saintingIN »

Our forward line future...? Thoughts?

Sippos: showed glimpses but need to buulk up big time and with tommy walsh and tommy lynch gone gives him a big chance to play as a 3rd tall option. Unreal kicking ability

Johnson: playes hard and desperate footy and can be a utility... we have seen he can kick goals after only registering 10 games for sandy this year on an average of 2.4 a game... why wouldnt we keep him?

Saad: dominated the vfl this year. very slick and knows where the goals are... will definitely be played this year as he is ready for senior footy in my eyes.


Stkilda s forward line looking pretty good if these 3 were considered aliongside riewoldt, milne, kosi and schnieds.....


Your Thoughts?

I like the idea mentioned elsewhere of freeing up Schieds in the mid field which, if he got his hands on it enough would provide excellent delivery into our forward line.

Leave Milne in his position to guide the youngsters and kick goals.

Siposs might be better on a flank as a lead up forward to get his hands on the ball. Until he bulks up a bit and then play him deeper and use his dead eye accuracy to convert.

Saad play him in Gambles position (what ever that was...forward pocket?)

Milera looks like he could be a ripper wingman type. Has excellent delivery with both feet.

Don't know too much about Johnson tbh.

If all play to their potential I reckon we could have a super forward line again!

I am very open minded on our fwd 50. Open to all possible combinations. Clean slate. Hopefully we experiement a bit. But certainly not dismissive of the OPs suggestions. All players now have a new opportunity.
