Re: 2010 Bulldog Premiership Team

The reports in the Age indicate that Higgins will miss 3 to 4 weeks, to me this rules him out for the season.

Any other midfielder.

Cooney = No.
Picken = tagger = No.

Boyd & Cross are interchangable so you can have that one if you wish.

No Higgins?

He should be told to get himself right for next year(operation, rest whatever he needs before preseason starts). We can't afford to carry him IMO(especially if we are already carrying Johnno and Ward).

Couldn't agree more regarding Higgins.

I would like to see us go back to having Griff run off half back.

Although Ward is suffering he will enjoy not playing at Etihad
and I wish we were not playing there in Round 22. That stadium has been our biggest problem all year and if we were a tenent at the G we would be lining up for GF tickets very soon.

Ide like to see Gia move up to the wing and if Boyd or Cross are being beaten
then they can swap.

We must have Murphy in the forward line leading up either side with Grant
so we open up their backs.

Harbrow is a must in the Forward line and Im hoping Eade has been keeping this
move up his sleeve. It is our biggest weakness that other teams have enjoyed
to exploit although he is needed for the opposition small forwards I feel his record isnt
that flash on the best smalls and having him at Halls feet will make us much better.

Wood to rotate with Griff at times so he can pinch hit through the middle.

Although I like Roughead and Minson I think we should look at using Everitt instead
as we will need more mobility at this stage. To many times I have seen our Ruckman being ran around on a wing.

The last spot on the bench is open for someone to claim over the next two weeks but at the moment it would have to be Moles a fit Higgins is easily ahead of him but as we know he isnt and we cannot carry him anymore and his injury may be a blessing in disguise.

OOHRAH THE FFC!

I don't agree with all the positions but that would also be my 22 to take on Collingwood.

- One pure ruck with Everitt and Williams to support.

- Murphy to play back and move forward when required, with Harbrow playing as a high half back / sweeping mid. Harbrow may also have stint forward during finals and Wood (if fit) can take his defensive spot.

- If Higgins was 100%, I'd replace Johnson (not that it would happen).

- No Hahn or Eagleton - they've had chances to step up against quality opposition and have failed.

I'm sure the team that actually lines up will look quite different - hopefully it can get the job done.
