Based on pre season so far.

You cannot pick Garland, Riley, Watts & Vince. They didn't have any contact work.

Howe seems Ok he put in a great pre Xmas. If he gets over his hammy soon he is still in consideration.

Did you not put Vandenberg in your 22?

Our starting 22 based on preseason form would see Vince and Watts not picked. If they are fit and ready to go for round 1, then they are automatically selected. Makes this exercise a little more difficult.

That said, I'll presume they will be right to go, so my 22 would be;

B - Jetta-Frost-Dunn

HB - Grimes-McDonald-Garland

C - McKenzie-N Jones-Lamumba

HF - Watts-Pedersen-Vince

F - Garlett-Hogan-Kent

R - Jamar-Tyson-Viney

Inter - M Jones-Howe-Newton

Sub - Salem

Emg - Michie-Gawn-Petracca

Notes;

McKenzie goes to Ablett

When Jamar rests, Pedersen goes to ruck, Jamar to full forward, Hogan to CHF

If Watts, Vince and/or Howe don't play;

Gawn comes in for Watts

Michie in for Vince

Petracca for Howe, but starts as sub and Salem is elevated to the bench

Happy for JKH and Toumpas to get some form/confidence playing in the VFL.

what bout Cross?

I think they should pick the first NAB challenge game based on training form so Howe has already been ruled out and I wouldn't play Vince, Watts and Garland who have been in rehab for a while even if they were fit enough in time, I would hold them back for another week.

B: JETTA, FROST, DUNN

HB: GRIMES, T.MCDONALD, LUMUMBA

C: CROSS, N.JONES, NEWTON

HF: KENT, DAWES, BAIL

F: GAWN, HOGAN, GARLETT

FOLL: JAMAR, TYSON, VINEY

IC: PEDERSEN, M.JONES, SALEM, TOUMPAS, KENNEDY-HARRIS, MICHIE

SUB: BRAYSHAW, PETRACCA

If we are talking about the first NAB Cup game (& there are six interchange), then my team would differ as below

B. Jetta. Frost. Dunn

HB. Brayshaw T. Mac. Toumpas

C. HL. Viney. Watts

HF. Petracca. Dawes. Gawn

F. Garlett. Hogan. Kent

R. Jamar, Tyson, N.Jones

I. Newton, Vince, Howe, Salem, JKH

S. Mitchie

E. Pederson, Vandeberg, M. Jones

What about leaving Hogan out of the NAB cup and just debut him round 1?

Can anyone imagine how bad it would be for Hogan to go down in the NAB cup, seriously I wouldn't play him, the NAB cup is a joke.

Yes

I suspect he will replace Trenners.

If he does get upgraded he will get in.

And what if he goes down in round 1 or at training... perhaps we shouldn't play him then either?

I know its rough, but atm toumpas is getting the backline position over grimes for mine

Yes

Yeh but if it's based on pre season, it would be hard to justify his selection due to missing pretty much the whole of December and resuming full training in January, was what I was suggesting

play hogan. If we are worried he might hurt himself then we will never play him. what about our other prized draftees? do we not play them in the nab either?

I think we shouldn't worry about that. Luck of the draw.
However if he's not right physically or mentally then of course don't play him.

Sorry but this is crazy logic. The need for him to get some competitive gametime under his belt is far greater than the need to wrap him in cotton wool. He could just as easily go down in the first quarter of Rd 1. Holding him back is literally pointless.

Pointless and counterproductive as you say 'P-man'.

Are you serious?? You would have Toumpas instead Of Cross across Half back???

Cross was a revelation last year. For him to miss is unthinkable!

I would like to see Toumpas playing a few Brilliant games for Casey across HBack before even considering him to play instead of Cross!

Salem across Half Forward line for me! Brayshaw to get a gig in the 22 possibly replacing Michie/ Gawn!

Gawn at Half Forward?? Nup!!

Roos will play whoever he believes to be the best for the job when the time comes. If he picks Toumpas over Cross, then so be it.

Where would you play Gawn if you are to have a second ruck? From all the training reports he has been taking some good marks and clunking a few goals. He would be hard to match up.

Similarly Toumpas is showing some form at training and, if he stays on the list, he is the future of the Club. There is no reason that he should prove himself at Casey if he can do it at traing and the NAB Cup.

Also no problems with Brayshaw starting but the suggestion of swapping him for Gawn is hardly like for like!

Cross proven, hard, creative ball winning capable, HBF

Toumpas needs more than "Training Form" to get a gig IMV

Gawn maybe but rotating on and of the ground not on a HFF

And another HOWE?? HFF??

stunned people think watts wont make the team....... he was top 10 in our B&F clearly the coaches rate him.

Going to be competitive for spots thats for sure. Garland watts and grimes will all be in,

From that team id say Pedo, Newton and Toump out for them.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to
