Your Round 1 2019 Team

[Assange Tiger 😎]

I like your wingers........

But Broad plays R1............

[pmac21]

I reckon Lynch will play round one now. Just a feeling.

[Tiger Khosh]

I like that team torch. Only question mark would be Weller but I guess he’s holding caddy’s position. Will be interesting if Castagna and Mcintosh are available as I thought Ellis and butler were poor in JLT1.

[Slipper]

Baker for Butler.

do we lack pace??????

Fair point, sdc. I went on both JLT games under this 6-6-6 rule being decided by contested possies and clearances. So that's why I've gone for more contested ballwinners.

I think Broad has one wing sewn up. I'm in a quandry with the other wing with McIntosh, Markov and Menadue. I was hoping one or more was going to stand out in the preseason with plenty of the pill and say pick me. Tonight was Kmac's first game so perhaps I'm being harsh having him as an emergency. He is a premiership player in that wing position after all although he doesn't win a lot of the ball and his 2018 was average. I'm not a Menadue fan. Just don't see him making it. Markov has probably been the best of the three over the preseason so that's why I have him in the side.

Broad & Markov on the wings with Butler a walk up start in the FP. Seriously MT, hand in your badge mate. That is...if that's what you want in R1.

You are close to the RFC R1 team. Ellis in for Markov and I reckon you're spot on with what the club will pick....

Don't be surprised if there's a bolter for round one that we didn't see in the JLT.......

There maybe stacks of bolters....

They rate Stack but it's hard to see a kid who hasn't even played a practice match in anger alongside his teammates getting an AFL debut call up for round 1. Dimma did say he was willing to play Lynch without any JLT games but only because he's a gun and a former captain with 8 years of AFL behind him already. Stack doesn't have that rap sheet yet.

The only other one they could be tempted to play is George but I don't think they will IMO even if he comes right in the next week. While Ellis is on the outer.

Ben Miller or Tom Lynch?

On the second JLT form neither McIntosh or Menadue play R1. They were both fairly ordinary with a few turnovers. Think you are spot on with your team given form and injuries.It is sad that nobody else has stood up to push Weller off the bench.

Mcintosh, Menadue, Weller & Ross combined had a whopping 18 more disposals combined than everyones favourite, The BEllis, had in JLT1....

And yet BEllis couldn't impose himself in a VFL practice match.....
