I believe Cox is the backup tall defender/ was a fwd so can play either end.

Hamling when fit is automatic best 22/ Pearce also but has missed so much footy. Logue the other option - I think they play 2 of those 3, Ryan becomes the 3rd tall.
Conca has stated he looks like playing as the lockdown small defender playing on the most dangerous fwd.
That leaves Young/ Wilson/ Chapman for the last 2 spots - reading reports I think Young is a lock, he & Ryan sharing kick in duties.
Wilson has been inconsistent the last few years, I think Chapman is pressing hard/ another strong performance tomorrow will further press his claims for round 1.
Most teams pick 7 defenders for games with the rotations, so Chapman will also be right in the mix for one of those 4 spots. My opinion anyway - kid is a huge talent, watching the vision of him you can’t help but be impressed.
Thanks for that

My knowledge of Fremantle is fairly limited.

From what I read earlier , JL wants Cox to stay in defence (obviously this could change game to game or quarter by quarter).

I thought with Hamling & Pearce back that would then free Ryan up to play a more attacking role.

So thought Logue would then be the back up tall to Cox , Hamling & Pearce.

Interesting Chapman is listed as the same height as Logue

so the 3 talls + Conca + Ryan + Wilson + Young

not sure how he plays his wingers either whether Aish/Acres just drop back into defence

Be interesting to see how Chapman goes

Ethan Hughes? Based on his form last season I think Logue would be locked into their best 22.

@wogitalia and the FFC boys have really raised the bar and taken this preseason to another level, thank you for all your efforts.

For someone like me who's increasingly tied down with family commitments (3 teenage girls), it's much appreciated.
Daughter 1 records tackles, daughter 2 records handballs and daughter 3 records kicks. 😀
