Assume Parish and Curnow selected in draft and assume they are what pundits forecast.

Assume all players fit and in form and reflect potential.

What is everyone's optimum centre square lineup? It's Qualifying final 2016 opening bounce.

    Why would you even name those two kids, no way they are starting a final in the cenrte square in their first season

    Gawn

    Viney

    Jones

    Brayshaw

    Vince and Tyson in off the wing

    I agree but i put them in there for the sake of discussion. Some posters may disagree with you and I and I'm interested to hear what everyone has to say

    Id have Tyson in the middle and Brayshaw on a wing myself but i agree with the personnel

    I can see it now: Gawn taps it to Viney as Salem sprints in from the back of the centre square, receives the Viney handball and places a perfectly executed left foot stab pass to Petracca 30 meters out and straight in front.

    This happens 3 times in a row causing Alistair Clarkson to wreck the Hawthorn coaches box before sending Luke Hodge onto Viney.

    So Gawn taps it to Brayshaw instead who, aided by a block from vandenBerg, feeds the ball to Milkshake running off the back of the square. Same result!

    I absolutely agree with you, I reckon people are really forgetting Tyson's 2014, he still think he has utter star potential, supposedly played through injury a lot this year

    The way Salem and Brayshaw have been managed shows that Parish and Curnow (if we select them) are going nowhere near the rough stuff from minute dot.

    Both those two have benefited from a gradual easing into the heavy stuff as opposed to the Jack Watts treatment.

    Only bloke we have had starting in a key position from the start of his senior career is Hogan (a physical beast who benefited from a year playing against men in the VFL before he hit the big time).

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
