Team round 1 2016
« on: November 26, 2015, 04:47:33 PM »
Given a fullly healthy list. What changes are made from this team that played against the Roos in the final for round 1 against Carlton. Couple changes, no sub anymore and Chris Newman retired.
Keeping in mind we've added Yarran, Moore, Townsend, Rioli, Markov, Broad. And Lennon, c Ellis, Lloyd, menadue, Drummond, McBean and others all sitting in the stands.

Jake Batchelor  Alex Rance   Chris Newman
HB
Bachar Houli  Nick Vlastuin  Troy Chaplin
C
Brandon Ellis  Trent Cotchin  Kamdyn McIntosh
HF
Dustin Martin  Ben Griffiths  Shane Edwards
F
Jack Riewoldt  Brett Deledio  Ty Vickery
FOL
Ivan Maric  Anthony Miles  Taylor Hunt
I/C
Dylan Grimes  Shaun Grigg  Kane Lambert
SUB
Reece Conca

For me I say Lennon for conca. Moore for grigg. Yarran for Newman. C Ellis for hunt

This will only go one of two ways, Dimma's favourites or who deserves it. Now pick your team :thumbsup

With a fully fit squad  I'd place them a bit differently to what the Dimsim would serve up.

B
David Astbury, Alex Rance, Dylan Grimes
HB
Bachar Houli  Nick Vlastuin  Brandon Ellis
C
Chris Yarran, Jack Riewoldt, Kamdyn McIntosh
HF
Brett Deledio, Dustin Martin, Shane Edwards
F
Daniel Rioli, Ty Vickery, Sam Lloyd
FOL
Shaun Hampson, Anthony Miles,Trent Cotchin
I/C
Ivan Maric, Kane Lambert, Corey Ellis, Reece Conca
 
Basically lined them up for:

stopping power across  the back line.
 
quick transition football between the arcs.

accuracy in front of goals.

Looks so much better without Batchelor there, backline looks stronger, but need to look at Lennon in the side. Also good to see the bloody sub rule gone.

McBean would add something different too,

yet by and large a much healthier looking side

I actually had him in there, must have copied over his name.
Probably should drop Lambert or Conca  and slide him back in.

Would be nice to see what he can do with some lace out delivery from a 1st's player instead of the crap thrown up at VFL level.

Is that Dusty at CHF while Jack is in the centre for the opening bounce?  Just checking ... otherwise pretty solid looking team & I really like the back 6! 
Dusty going forward late in the game is a winner & he does become our major target when we do it, but is this a starting line up?

LOL at effing Astbury. Done nothing except for a purple patch which just happened to coincide with Rance's injury

Not even going to go into Jack playing in the midfield

I agree, not a huge fan of Astbury either but I have more confidence in him in a one on one contest or any contest than Chaplin ...he's not as "attacking" (term used very loosely) as Chaplin but we'll have Yarran down there to more than balance that out, while his extra pace should more than balance out Astbury's lack thereof (and it's not like Chaplin is quick) ...and as I said, Astbury is a better actual defender, which we'll need because Yarran doesnt really defend - can we really afford to have Yarran, Houli & Chaplin down there all playing loose and being unaccountable ?....and who else are you going to stick there? Two Game Todd? Even if we grabbed, say, Glass-McCasker tomorrow - you going to upgrade him and throw him in straight away?  It just underlines the paucity of depth in our KPD's and shows how delusional it is to think we have that area of the ground covered....

...and wouldn't the fact that Astbury's purple patch came in the absence of our best defender and when he had extra responsibilty actually be a big tick in his favour?
