Preseason Training - 2019

[Mofra]

So come round 1 next year who are our 3 starting mids?

It's a tough one. We could well start Bont forward which would mean Macrae, Libba, McLean start with a quick rotation to Dunkely, Bont, Bailey Smith straight after - Smith gets protected by two huge bodies and Bont/Dunkley get paired.

From memory McLean attended the third most centre bounces for us last year, he's really highly rated internally.

Is it worth missing what Bont brings to the midfield so we can play him permently at centre half forward? Bont is close to the best mid in the game at the moment but we have more players that can play in the midfield and not so many that can play forward.

I really wish we had two Bonts. It would make things much simpler.

We've really had a constant generational shift in wishing we had two of a certain type of player.

For years it was Grant - one forward, one back.
Then Johnno - one on the wing, one forward
Then Murphy - one back, one forward
Now it's the Bont - one mid, one forward.

Two Doug Hawkins would have been handy. Not only could we play one on each wing they could have gone out drinking with one another!

I bet CUB would have loved two Dougies.

It would have doubled their profits.

I'm hitting them right between the eyes - Bont, Libba & Dunkley.

From memory McLean attended the third most centre bounces for us last year, he's really highly rated internally.

He is rated highly by many external parties too, he was putting together a really good season until he got poleaxed against Port (??) and wasn't the same player afterwards... needs to tidy up a few things (more care with his kicking), but he's developing into a really nice player.

I'd actually like to see him rotate forward a little more. He did spend significant time forward for us when drafted and does have attacking instincts. I really hope he doesn't lose that be begin forced to grind out his time in the midfield. Hopefully with Dunkley and Libba back he spends a little more time outside the contest too.

I’m going Bont, Macrae, Dunks.

Imagine rolling up to the bounce and having these blokes milling around. How are you going to compete with their size?

It's moments like those that you get to laugh at the footy. A lot.
