If Chandler is fit he comes in and replaces Sparrow and Howes becomes the sub, but ATM Langdon and Billings have to play the small forward role.

Makes sense, Billings would need to play pressure forward and connector. He has looked great at training. Historically a very poor shot for goal.

Not sure they can play all of JVR, Turner, Jeffo and Johnson in the one side PF

[Whispering_Jack 31,188]

How about this one from Fox Sports?

[Fritta and Turner 4,676]

Looks like a good round 1 side.  Pick last years team except for the boom recruit.

If you fellas dont perfrom then the kids get selected.

F: Fritsch Van Rooyen Chandler

R: Gawn Petracca Oliver

I: Rivers Sparrow Laurie Johnson Langdon

S: Lindsay

if this forms the bulk of our team for the bulk of the year and we hit September fit then the Flag is a distinct possibility. I’ve bonded those that can either go through the middle or can run all day or both.

• petty will be in the back tall trio not plugger mac
• rivers is a mid rotation
• windsor will take his role at half back
• spargo is unlkely to be fit

honestly, it's like they have NO IDEA what a team is looking like during pre-season training?

fox sports is almost as lazy as zero hanger these days

FB: Petty May McVee
HB: Windsor Lever Salem
C; Billings Rivers Wing2
HF: Sharp JVR Langdon 
FF: Chandler Turner Fritsch
Foll: Gawn Oliver Viney
Int: Tracc, Langford, fwd/mid, half back
S: McAdam

Half back: Bowey vs Howes vs Hore

Wing: Lindsay vs Woey vs other

Fwd/mid: Sparrow vs Laurie 

Do we go an extra tall?

Do we slide Windsor back to the wing so we get the height of Howes and keep Bowey in the side?

Do we roll Sharp or Langdon to the wing to open up another tall or medium forward?

The only change I would like to make is Chandler in McAdam to sub and Sparrow dropped.

Not sure how McAdam could go as a sub due to him only being a forward

 

I would leave that option for a versatile player like Johnson imo

 

McAdam should get first crack while Kozzy and Throstup are out

[SthSea22 657]

McVee now out for an extended period

AMW takes his spot

Howes is a more flexible choice as defender ( plays on smalls and talls) but  AMW could also be sub and play back or forward also.

wwsw - I was of the impression that McVee and Tholstrup have been ill / injured and won’t be ready for round 1, and of course Kozzie will miss thanks to Darcy Moore for legging him last round.

I think I'm going to put some coin on Casey to win the flag, that's a ridiculously strong VFL team.

more thinking 'best available in 2025' - hence why only mcadam was excluded from this narrative

there is, of course, a separate and different rd 1, 2025, thread for werridee to change and adjust accordingly as required
