B - BILLINGS , ZUCCA , TEDDY
HB- KANE , RISOL , SIEKIERKA
C - JACOBS , BEVAN , REIMERS
HF - MOODY , MCINNES , DAVIS
F - DONAVAN , TUNBRIDGE , BUSHER
FOLL - ??? , SMITH , BATEMAN

INT - STACK , SKETCHER , LEESON , FLORIO , HOUGHTON .

I suppose Eyres would go into the ruck , but im hoping they recruit Andrew Ruck from Claremont or another good ruckman . I honestly think this side or something close to it will do ok in 2013 and surprise quite a few people .

Paul,any chance of Hodge and O'Sullivan getting a game. Both must rate in best 22 IMO.
At the moment Eyres would lead the ruck but I agree Ruck or another experienced ruckman is desirable with Eyres as second string. Eyres does average 20+ hitouts per game and he can take a strong mark around the ground.
Is Risol a KPP defender.? He has the height.

I will get into strife with you lot with the following comments.
That team on paper Paul looks horrible.

That backline as you have named it looks fragile,its just too small.
Reimers surely has to start forward.
Your forward line-up just doesnt look potent,Tunbridge at FF?

I think what your line-up does show is just how much more recruiting is needed,the glaring one..a lack of quality Kpp's.
The bench line up is players of the same ilk,you would be hoping a ruckman or a defender doesnt go down on match day.Where/who are the replacements?


Have Davis and Ali Smith comitted for the 2013 season?

I hope that team surprises you in the way you hope Paul but quite frankly it just doesnt look up to it for mine.

Even with all those blokes you are alot weaker than last year when you came 8th and blokes you HAVE put in aren't even playing or haven't been seen yet.

Smokey im pretty sure Risol is a KPP , even if he doesnt play CHB we can shuffle things around to suit .I could fit Hodge and O'Sullivan in somewhere but it would probably be on the bench - i dont see who they would replace in the starting 18 . They would probably replace Florio and Houghton on the bench , the only reason i put those 2 in was cause they add a bit of height . I suppose the bench could change from week to week depending on the opposition and you could probably throw in Vidot and a few others .

30plus i was told that Tunbridge will probably play FF and if you can recall when he was used in that role last year he did quite a good job - he takes a good grab although at times his kicking can let him down . What would your side be 30plus ??
Dogman who are the blokes not playing or been seen yet ??? Big question is how the f-ck would you know .

Full Forward is such a specialist role that you have to do a job there week in and week out and i dont think Tunbridge could do that.
Its a position this club has fiddled around with for decades without much success.

My side?
I Dont know at this stage because i dont know if Smith and Davis are playing,im not sure of any other outs and im pretty sure theres more recuiting to be done(or should i say "needs to be done).

Paul I would have thought Busher would take a KP role.

Maybe Tunbridge in a pocket.

I can tell you that the forward line is done and dusted, unless anything has changed since before Xmas.

I think there is a ton of potential with the players at the Club.

Expect Stack to play a role this year from what I have heard.

Just need to get the ball in there quickly and well.

Busher at FF then 30plus . Im sure more recruits are on the cards well lets hope so - i was only going on who i know will be more than likely playing in 2013 .

Didn't you say that last year on WAFLonline DF?.....because it wasn't DD was it?

Paul that backline of yours is feckin awful to say the least...you guys will get rasped by any opposition forward line which has height and 1/2 decent ability....your mids look more than ok, but they did last year too.....whilst your forward line looks good on paper.....beats me how Colledge isn't named though...oh well time will tell I guess if your defence is really what you think it is....no wonder why DM keeps playing Neon up back, he must he thinking what the rest of the comp is thinking....
