wish the AFL/WAFL implemented a rule where any 2 forwards and any 2 backs had to stay within the 50 zone at all times....at least that would mean a return to the good old days of high scoring matches....all this "press" is killing the game from a spectacle perspective....
hopefully Wiley can improve EF forward entries and midfield structure....who do folk think will EF line up with in round one up front?...Mirco CHF....Watson CHF....Howson or Moreno as the third tall with Peake,JMac,Fahey,Krakouer and Hampson as small forwards?
Through the middle one would assume Eardley, Adamini, Crichton(tagger) LA and Marsh would be EF primary mids with the likes of D Anthony, Regan, Schleicher, Harrold, Henson, Schofield, Omodei and youngsters in Holmes, Bennett,Franklin, Marshall,Baskerville, Burton,Baskerville and Harding as back up?
from a defence perspective I guess the regulars in Stephen,Winton, Jupp, Read, Lester-smith will provide the core of EF defence with JMac and Schofield providing some half back dash from time to time....how are youngsters in Hebiton, Bailey and Nevill travelling? Also Dorotich after that nasty knee injury in 2015? How is Morton-Smith going these days...talented colt from a few years back cruelly culled with back to back knee reconstructions from memory?
Symonds, Fletcher and Cronan as prospective rucks....bit thin there me thinks...wish Sandi or Griff were available TBH.
