- Start date
Current version :-
Defence
Lloyd - lock
Ridley - with Kelly recruited to play lockdown, can see him having a big SC year/ perfect SC game
Whitfield - I have debated with this pick ... depends on preseason but so tempting at his price/ ability to produce big scores
Sicily - Big fan of his, everything I have read about his preseason/rehab sounds great. Big watch on the hawks defence line up in preseason games - if playing his old SC friendly intercept marking role I will roll with him.
Rookies - place holders at this stage/ at this stage they seem in the mix.
Midfield
Macrae- SC royalty, Mr durable & consistent. Dogs play a lot of early round games so perfect VC option also.
Steele - Durable/ awesome tackler/ huge engine/ consistent - no red flags here. Saints play many late round games so solid Capt option.
Miller - see Steele... just love the way this guy goes about it.
Walsh - you all know how much I love this kid, think he will go to another level this year, superstar.
Neale - lock
Rookies - place holders at this stage/ at this stage they seem in the mix. JHF/Daicos/Ward amazing SC junior scores very appealing as onfield rookies. Long picked as capt loohole (hawks have late games) DP could be handy.
Rucks
Darcy - massive finish to last year, trimmer this year & could well be the number 1 SC ruck this season
McInerney - debated this pick for awhile... his 2nd half to last season was very impressive/ setting himself for a big year with extra work at preseason.
Hayes - With Ladhams gone & Dixon injured currently, he could well see games early on.
Fowards
Dunkley - have changed between him & Duncan a lot, Dunkley's ability to score huge when in the right role has swayed me at this stage.
Butters - see sig
Coniglio - lock
Curnow - Joe Daniher of 2022, was very impressive at Carlton's intra club scratch match during the week.
Maginess - this guy has worked very hard in building a big tank & improved his speed, in the mix to play on a wing this year.
Hollands - lock
Rookies - place holders at this stage/ Comben in the mix to be Goldy's backup & play as a fwd target, Skinner was great in the
SANFL last year, like that I can pair him up with De Koning for coverage.

lol, he was out with a shoulder between round 7 to 17. Can't recall if I started him. Anyway I wasn't judging his potential, rather his role, the coach has other ideas, ie: ruck. As I said, he's a favourite of mine, but not too sure what his role will be. Definitely not on a blacklist, but happy to pass at this early stage. 😁
V0.7 - will have to wait and see if the 6-7 players I am watching as potential bargain forwards have good preseasons. But I think between those 200-300 and a few rookies this structure might just work again. I also think those 4 "rookies" on ground in the midfield should play round 1. Hobbs probably the most in doubt. Clark looks a gem and could even play round 1.
I see a lot of teams with De Koning .. but a fringe GEE player scares the hell out of me ...
I also note Macrae is pretty well hyped ... can't take him yet based on last seasons output ..
- Rowell is a place holder for Berry etc ..
- Yep .. my Ruck line will likely change as I tinker ...
