    I'm in love.

    My chief concern though is the forward set-up needs a small, high-energy tackling machine and I'm not sure we have one.

    Jamie Elliott would fix that, but I will leave that for the trade thread. I agree, I'd move Dale to half forward and a pressure forward on the full forward line.

    McLean?
    But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

    Getting Keath should cause a flow on effect which will allow Cordy to focus on becoming our lock down Dylan Grimes type/Dale Morris replacement. He’s been punching above his weight division for years.
    Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

    Gee that is a bloody good team. I would be keeping Cordy for sure to play the role of Morris as others have said. Now is his chance to be the player he should be. I too think dale further out with a dare I say it Dalhaus type. The one we first recruited. I find it difficult to think with the head not the heart.

    B. Cordy Le Young Crozier
    HB jj Keath Wood
    C Hunter Dunkley Lipinski
    HF Dale Schache Maclean
    F Bruce Naughton Daniel
    FO English Bont Macrae
    Int Libba Smith Suckling Lloyd

    A few tough calls but would love to see this come to fruition

    Would love it if Le. Young takes a huge leap forward next year. We need a solid full back. Competition for spots will be really tight next year if we can keep our boys fit.

    Still have high hopes for B williams and am perplexed at how far backward he went this year.

    Those teams are comparable best 22 with any team in the comp. They are a little short in depth in the 18-24 spots but if we can keep our best team out on the park we will give it a huge shake next year.
    They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

    Will Williams be part of the deal to get a Keith to the dogs?

    Can’t wait for 2020. With Keith we will see Wood play that interception type and back to his AA form
    BB.

    Looking forward - Naughton, Darcy and JUH. It will be the envy of everyone.

    Just signed on.... I mean. Possibly ...but that's some real mind game stuff if it happens.

    I haven’t been this excited after a home and away season since the Barry Hall signing

    Well apart from 2016 ��

    Re: 2020: Round 1 Team

    With the very likely inclusion of book end key position players on paper we already have a very strong playing list.
    We are still a bit light on for a versatile back up ruckman and probably some midfield depth but we do have substantial depth for mid sized defenders and forwards.

    I hope we can find a tagger or at least reset someone already on our list into that sort of player.

    We will be more than competitive next season.
