OK so list is basically done, assuming no injuries what does the line up look like:

B: Paton, Howard, Wilkie
HB: Long, Carlisle , Coffield
C: Hill , Steele, Jones
HF: Billings, Membrey , Butler
F: Gresham, King, Marshall
Foll: Ryder, Crouch, Clark
Int: Higgins, Battle, Hannebery, Sinclair

Emerg: Lonie,Ross, Geary, Dunstan

Crouch won't be available until round 3 I believe.

correct.

Oh & Ross is still Best 22 in my opinion, just ahead of Sinclair.

Best ten actually, according to this years B and F.

Always ahead of Sinclair.

Ross in for Crouch

[st.byron]

That’s starting to look like a team without any ‘filler’. No one there that makes me wince even slightly. And Gears and Seb Ross would be emergencies with that starting 22. Depth is building. Tend to agree Seb is still best 22.

[Selhurst Saint]

It's starting to look like quite a formidable lineup.

It essentially adds three class players to the team that beat the Bulldogs and "six" to the team that lost to Richmond.

My team exactly, though being Round 1 we won't have Crouch. Would love to see Bytel in, though it will probably be Ross.

the list is starting to look a lot better - but still needs two more A grade additions
Starting back - I would be extremely worried about how costly Long will be in back line with umpires & clangers
Hes been on the table for several years running now but we need to replace Carlisle this year - again.
I cant see it coming from within ( although I always had high hopes fro Joyce) Think we should have made a play for Alir Alir (future second rounder was pretty cheap)

While his figures look good Crouch is even more fragile than Hannebery and thats saying something and of course comes with the drugs baggage
The bulk of the onball work will again fall on Steele and Jones
Bytel MUST make a mark this year and become a regular

Fowradline lacks a bit of defensive player which Lonie bought to the game
Gresham needs to earn his spot and drop the selfishness
ont be surprised if Geary gets more games playing defensive role up forward
Billings had better kick goals because he does not bring any strength to the contest
And pleanty of work into King over summer on arm strength and single grabs

But so so pleased that Kent didnt get a spot

[MC Gusto]

Agree with the Ross / Sinclair assessment. How do we bring Bytel into the equation?

Very promising side btw!

[Otiman]

How do we bring Bytel into the equation?

He brings himself into the equation with a cracking preseason, good form in whatever games he plays, and backs it up when he gets a run in the team.
