Obviously the following line up has been adjusted to fill key positions, however all are plausible.

Is there any key pattern here? He has nearly selected every position on the field and with a few rookie selections no doubt will.

Bennell Davis ?

Strauss Cook Bail

Blease Scully Trengove

Howe Watts Jurrah

Tapscott Fitzpatrick Jetta

Rucks: Gawn, Gysberts, Mckenzie

Inter: Mcdonald, ?, ?.

Prendergast loves speed, endurance, kicking skills and to a lesser degree a bit of grunt.

Speed: Bennell, Davis, Strauss, Bail, Blease, Scully, Trengove, Watts, Jurrah, Fitzpatrick

Endurance: Bennell, Strauss, Cook, Bail, Scully, Trengove, Howe, Mckenzie, Mcdonald.

Kicking Skills: VG-Elite Bennell, Strauss, Cook, Blease, Trengove, Howe, Watts, Jurrah, Tapscott + Good: Scully, Gysberts, Bail, Jetta, Mckenzie, Davis (looks okay)

Kicking Skills II: The only blokes who are not good to elite kicks are the rucks (which is normal).

Grunt: Davis, Blease, Tapscott, Jetta, Mckenzie.

Gawn is the only bloke who I haven't fitted into these categories, but for a 208 cm ruckman his skills and running ability appears to be reasonable.

Feel free to tinker with any of the above categories, just my humble opinion.

Does anyone else glean anything or am I as per usual clutching at straws?

Cheers

I see what you have done here, however I think that when you invest in quick, athletic, skilled footballers you are also recruiting flexibility.

Such are the reasons why we have no Godfrey, Valenti or even Cheney on our list.

FB: Bennell Davis _______

HB: Strauss _____ Bail

C: Blease Trengove ______

FP: Tapscott Watts Jurrah

FF: Howe Cook Jetta

Foll: Gawn, Scully, Mckenzie

Inter: Gysberts, Fitpatrick/McDonald

The best of the end of the Craig Cameron period Grimes, Morton, Garland, Frawley fill the gaps in the back half and midfield.

We've now recruited key forward options, practically a new midfield and speed and skill across the park. Plus we have a genuine first ruck option in Gawn, a more mobile ruck/forward in Fitzgerald and a player in McDonald who whilst undersized could end up just perfect for where the second ruck position is going. He could be a smart pick with the eye on the future.

I'd say next priority which could start in the rookie draft is going for more speed on the outside. A Davey or Wonaeamirri would be a great addition.

Let's not forget that Viney is coming. We are going to have at least one more elite midfielder added to the mix.
