I think it is neck and neck between Hunt and Bowey for the HBF. Hunt is more experienced and so exciting when he gets running and breaking the lines, particularly in combination with Langers, but Bowey is so cool and so precise and his delivery. If Hunt works with Choco over the preseason and improves his disposal, he would get the nod from me.

Hunty will never displace Bowey. Bowey has him covered in all footy skills and smarts.

I like Hunty but he Hibberd and possibly Joel Smith are HB flankers or Back Pocket along with Tommo who is really a key position player a la Petty and Daniel Turner.

But all are in the mix plus our new recruit Judd McVee for HB. 

Some are interchangeable but we really need only 3 talls as we don't get the ball on the ground from some sides.

Bowey, Salo and Rivers are our best 3 HB flankers at the moment. IMO they are the 3 best footballers ie have more ability than the others.

Same as Maysie, Rick ( Lever) are a step ahead of the others like Tommo Petty and Joel Smith as key defenders but gee not by that much on this year. 

Hibbo has the ability but is nearing his career end but his spot in the best 23 is still his to lose IMO.

Gee it's hard to pick our best 23 and as one poster said our Casey team might well beat some AFL teams!!

One small point , reckon Baker should start on wing as he is a winger with Taj on bench as he will rotate with JJ, Laurie and any other midfielders. Realise Taj has played other roles in WA like HB but see him as his best spot to develop is on the ball.

Lets give these new players plenty of time to develop as thats the right they and the Club have early with our best 23 plus our extremely specific targeting of players for all positions.

Can't wait for 2022.

    2024 Player Reviews: #11 Max Gawn

    Champion ruckman and brilliant leader, Max Gawn earned his seventh All-Australian team blazer and constantly held the team up on his shoulders in what was truly a difficult season for the Demons.

    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.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. 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.
