Presumably Dunn is going to ruck in these line-ups - personally I don't like it.

All of you didn't put McKenzie in! I hope that was a mistake because he is clearly in our best 22 and is the major reason why McDonald was asked to retire.

Absolutly! thought someone was playing funny buggers!!

in the best dozen..

Pretty much exactly the same.

Bennel, Jones, Wona, and Bail the unlucky ones. And i'm hoping Tapscott, Gysberts and Blease will play plenty of games next season.

Having only 3 on the bench is a real [censored], it really will be the death of the 2nd ruckman. Not happy with Martin, but I guess he's the only real option as back up ruckman

I'd play Martin in the back-line where he belongs, and have him rotate through the ruck when required. I sort of want to replace Rivers with Macdonald, but I can't really see Rivers being dropped for Round 1. I wish we didn't have to play Bruce, but he is still a worth-while player, despite his faults. I could also see Jones on the bench instead of Gysberts, or even replacing Martin with Macdonald, dropping Gysberts or Bennell and putting Martin on the interchange as more of a true back-up ruckman.

How good is it to have depth? We all had to leave players out, but to think I've got Bail, Tapscott, Blease, Wona, Warnock to name a few playing at Casey, there's going to be some competition to keep spots in 2011. Bring on 2012+!!!

Second ruck is a concern. Martin would have to be considered for this spot, maybe as the sub instead of Morton. Ruck Jamar flat out for three quarters then sub him off maybe.

I'm not going to do it because I cant be bothered, but this new interchange rule shits me. I see no advantages to it. The sub is an interesting one. A team like Melbourne could definately use it to its advantage as you would be hoping for a player that is quick with good disposal to come on and make an impact while the rest of the field is slowing down.

What type of player do people think will be selected for the sub role? Do you think we will have a designated sub, or subs would be chosen tacticaly depending on who we are playing. It would be fair to say that the sub player would not be considered part of the best 18 as they are not required for the whole game, but someone who could bring something to the table also to change the tempo of the game if a plan c may be needed. A goal kicker, or exceptional field kick should only be considered for sub IMO.

Posted

^ I think one of the outcomes is going to be that the trend towards playing one ruck plus one guy who can just hold his own, but offers something else, will increase.

The other impact will be that guys who have a good tank will benefit.

I'm not sure how the sub will work - I'm sure there'll be a few different tactics before one is settled on.

Posted (edited)

I think the vast majority of selections are ignoring the fact that someone has to ruck when Jamar is resting. I don't think it should be Dunn - he's playing the defensive-forward role very well and he's a scoring threat - if he has to ruck and rest then that role is missing. We've got a problem there and that's why we were chasing Hale. I wouldn't play Jamar and Spencer together, and PJ has had his chances. IMO it has to be Fitzpatrick, Newton or Martin unless we can draft a mature age player like say Sinclair.

If Bruce doesn't sign I'd replace him with Macdonald.

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
