Melbourne Wanting

Featured Replies

 

Verdict: Put games into Watts, Jurrah, Petterd, Bate, Morton,, Aussie combo...add in a consistent Sylvia as well as Green for bit longer.

Why on earth would we need to go searching anywhere else at this stage?

There are many positives and negatives for all of the players mentioned above, the exception I believe would be Stanley from the Saints, yes been there since 2008 and in that time with Big Nick would find it hard to get a game, especially as has been proven the last few week the entire 'Saints Footy' (which equals SH!T Footy in my mind!) game plan revolves around Nick, I find it hard to believe that he hasn't got a game in Nick's absence.

He looked super in pre-season, hasn't been given much of a chance as others mentioned above here, knows that he may struggle for the game time he wants while Nick is around... he seems a candidate that could possibly look to move or be traded if the saints want to trade for a final push at a cup?

Stanley would be hungry and Rick P wants to go home (which is debatable) then maybe we could look at that trade and somehow get Stanley out of a three way deal.

Again, having said all that I would be most pleased to leave the forwards we have and give them some time together.....the backline has proven what time together and stability can achieve (and getting rid of the peanut Carroll).

I see Bate as a leadup Forward Flank/Mid - HBF...

I see Watts being a mobile CHF/FF, not unlike Riewoldt. Not a musclebound monster.

I see Jurrah as a freakish roaming FP/HFF

I see Wonna as a Small forward/Mid who'll roam up to the middle, like he did that win last year against the Lions.

I see Petterd as a hard working small medium Utility who'll play allover the ground.

I see Morton as a CHB sometime leadup CHF.

I Invisage a 2014 team something like this, >

FB:Cheney, Frawley, McNamara

HB:Strauss, Morton, Grimes

CL:Trengove, McKenzie, Blease

HF:Bate, Watts, Tapscott

FF: Wonna, ??????, Jurrah,

Rck: Spencer, Gysberts, Scully

Int: Garland, Davey, Viney, Bennell, Jetta, Bail, Petterd, Gawn, Martin +++++++++++++++++++

Where's Warnock and Jamar? Russian's only 27, and Warnock's...25?

Petterd can play full-forward, he's shown that this year.

 

I see Morton as a CHB sometime leadup CHF.

It's strange, I read this a lot but I just don't see it. He will never bulk up enough and personally I wouldn't him too. His skills are far more damaging in other areas than KP.

Purely imho of course....
