Best team 2015

Docherty Jamison Jaksch
Touhey Rowe Simpson
Yarran Gibbs Everritt
Kreuzer Murphy Judd
Thomas Henderson Walker
Jones Casboult Menzel

Bell, Buckley, Curnow, Whiley
Really excited about the list, got some really good height about it, some good in and under players, outside run and good depth. Drafted some very good people into the Club and have a real focus on Team Spirit. Can’t wait to see the development of Cripps, Boekhorst, Buckley, Menzel and others, go the Blues

The light at the end of the tunnel is approaching very rapidly, it's looking good is 2015.

Just hope it's not a freight train coming the other way

We are on the right track mate....excitting times ahead..go you mighty Blues

Our best 22 on paper looks pretty good, and hopefully we've got a little bit more depth now.

I also think we've got a little quicker. You take out Broke and replace him with Buckley (i'm really hoping he gets a full preseason in and plays the whole year), and then have Boekhorst replace a bit of a plodder like Curnow or Ellard, and suddenly we've got a bit more zip.

It's hard not to be optimistic this time of year, even though it has a history of being fruitless... But hye, it's gotta change one day doesn't it

You would have swapped pick 7 for Jaksch and pick 19?

Glad that wasn't the club's opinion....

I think the club wanted Brokebeers at pick #7, knew he would drop all the way to pick #19 so decided to cash on on that. At least we don't have to listen to development excuses for him next season as he idea is he's ready made to go. Obviously he doesn't have to kill it, but needs to cement a spot in the side.
Carrots, I have seen this kid play league in the WAFL against very good opposition and believe me he can play, he is so fast and excitting I recon the Blues got a ripper here

Fingers crossed. If he does turn out to be a gun it's a huge win for the club. Problem is they all look like world beaters in the lesser grade.

That's a nice team Pratty, I see you've thrown Jaksch in the deep end at CHB, I'll be delighted if he is up to that challenge !!

Personally I would probably bring in Cripps for either Carrazzo or Curnow, just to improve our clearance capabilities a bit. But that is probably a bit of 6 and 2 threes.

I think Carrazzo still to this day is our best clearance player.

Curnow is our best run with player and defensive midfielder. I don't think he is at risk of losing his spot in the 22.

I would think Whiley and Cripps will compete for the same spot/role. Once must play, gonna be interesting. As I said earlier, do not be surprised with a few surprises. That is, Rainbow and Foster are real dark horses IMO.

Cripps was 2nd in the NB B&F playing about 10 games. He is well ahead of Whiley and BB if all remain fit and firing

Nice Roy, no newbies in the side though. Also, for Wood to play Rnd 1, we need an LTI and the only one I can think of right at this moment is Giles but that will depend on his recovery progress.

Cripps, Whiley and Boekhorst are three different players....the latter has the pace and outside game that the coach wanted and with respect the NB's were a
rabble most of last season and I wouldnt be too swayed by B&F results ...

Cripps is a player the club want to succeed and I agree he will be given plenty of opportunities...

Whiley will have to work harder than the other two given he has more players competing for the onball tagging roles....

Wood will be a nominated rookie won't he?
