Notice Board (Visitors Enter Here) / Re: Age & talent profile
So yeah this is just my opinion on our best 22/depth. Obviously there will be differing views otherwise we wouldnt have this forum for discussion. So take it as you will, use this as a base and make your own alterations to reflect your views.

Wow, I didn't realise how young Kerr was, in fact I thought he was at the older end of things. Now I'm even more impressed with his efforts last season! :o Handing out some pain, rucking while under duress!

I don't think JGM is any more or less likely than say LeBios, Polson or Phillips. I think Macreadie has way more chance than the same set of players. That defensive group is virtually a coin toss based on fitness.

I wouldn't have Byrne or Lang as probable, they are also maybe at this stage. For example I doubt Mullett is any less chance than Byrne. Mullett has some real tricks, and has runs on the board at AFL level is a spud side!

As we add our draftee crop, LeBois, Polson and Phillips may be moved into that lower category and others might reshuffle too.

Fisher is an inside mid..not outside...
Lang I would class as a small/medium forward in the main....didnt get onball much at the Cats for obvious reasons and is unproven enough not to be classed as a mid IMO..

Fish, SPS and Cuners can be classed as both inside and outside because they all run through the centre but typically come off the edge of the square at centre bounces.

SOS highlighted in his post-trade wrap video that Lang will be playing midfield, which is why i have put him there. but of course this is subject to change once the season begins.

I mocked up a table with age & talent according to position to see where the club needed more depth, and the age profile of each position. (not sure if it uploaded, first time doing this).



This shows the need to rookie a young ruckman this year, and add some more depth across the board. Also shows we go about 28 deep at the moment and there should be competition for spots when healthy.

Age is based on how old they will be the majority of the 2018 season.

Not a great start at all. 2/26 in the 9th over with both openers back in the pavilion. All of the saffies quicks look very dangerous.

A good test for Marsh and Doolan here. Need to steady the ship and give Clarke some room to work with.
