Whats our best side look like in 2024

Post: # 2031526Post nobhead »

Looking ahead to next year ,what does our team look like after trades and drafts. Do dow and henry walk straight ino the line up and improve us. Do any of hotton ,heath keeler or van ess step up and play senior footy,along with coffield or dmac or jones .or will there be more delistings and trades to come ,ineresting times ahead.

The only real concrete info we have is Henry wants to come to us and Paddy Dow seems likely.

Outside of that the ins and outs are all speculation.

If we go with the above only this would be my round 1 side assuming all are fit and available.


Coffield, Wilkie, Howard
Sinclair, Battle, Milera


Marshall, Steele, Crouch
Dow, Wood, Henry

Gresham, Hammer, Hill
Owens, King, Butler


Bench: Windhager (backline) Phillipou (Fwd), Ross (mid), Billings (wing/fwd)

Sub: Clark

Notable omissions below

Sharman: Feel owens/Hammer sitting in his place. Could have easily named him ahead if Pou (who gives another mid option) or Hammer (who is better once the ball hits the deck and hits the contest harder)

Higgins: As a forward without another string to his bow have opted for Butler who provides better pressure and Billings who is more reliable ball in hand. Gresham more versatile.

Stocker: likely first in with injury, could take Clarks spot as sub.

Membrey: I'm not sure if he'll get back to his best sadly.

More interesting is who goes out as opposed to who comes in.

I thought our lineup into the GWS game was 19 out of the best 22 on the list (Jones, Membrey and Howard out) which will obviously change come round 1.

For all the chatter I can't see Silvagni being any more than depth.
