Aaron Davey, Hayden Ballantine, didak, Leon Davis

We need to look at recruiting all of these players, convincing some to come out of retirement. Clearly 4 mercurial small forwards in the same team isnt enough. We are ahead of the game for sure, who needs midfield rotations? The key is having mutiple players that have no tackling pressure, limited possession and/or impact on the game, and every five matches might bob up and kick a couple of goals.

We could fit 22 small forwards into the one team if we recruit well in the off season. Heres hoping.

He's small but apparently Michael Walters is deadly in the boxing ring. True story.
Probably best performed docker this year as well.

Nice thread...
Throw whatever we can at Alywn & Blease too.

Fair dinkum, my faith is waning... It was patently obvious we had too many small forwards in the side before donuts-lane was a late replacement. WTF, I hope Lee was injured, because if he was dropped then our selection committee needs the sack, what a terribly balanced side, absolutely crying out for a medium forward already, then lose Siposs & Lee.

I want answers, cause that was a disgraceful team picked.

TDL, probably a nice guy, but farhk me, I don't want to see him in the ones unless 2 other small forwards are injured.
