Pipefitter 2,234 Posted February 17 Posted February 17 What excited me is how much better that Casey lineup looks like this year. 2 Quote
Little Goffy 14,963 Posted February 17 Posted February 17 Am I the only one amused seeing 'C: Sharp'? If he consistently plays on the wing that must offer a nickname. Piano? It does look like that wing position is one we will have to develop over the season, giving a few players regular rotations through and seeing what works. I would have Jefferson in the firsts, probably at the expense of Billings who I just feel burned by - I would need to have evidence of a turnaround before I included him. 2 2 Quote

M_9 2,216 Posted February 18 Posted February 18 I do not want JvR rucking. Hence AJ, Campbell, Fullerton,Verrall, Sestan .... anyone to be in the 23. 1 Quote
DeeSpencer 26,675 Posted February 18 Posted February 18 I’m still thinking 2 talls, but we’ll know more about the practice games. Im also worried Rivers will have to play back due to needs with McVee out. I’m just not sure we can trust Windsor, Salem, Bowey and Howes as a defensive group. But let’s wait and see if Caleb is even fit and how they go in preseason. Wings are also a huge watch. Henderson could come in to the team and slide Sharp to Lindsay’s wing if the kid isn’t ready.

Langdon starts on the wing but gets to rotate through the middle as Sparrow can cover. Spargo plays if he’s properly fit which must be questionable. I’m putting Henderson on the bench as I suspect he’s ready to roll. I’d much prefer McVee over Howes atm and I have concerns over Salems ability to play a whole season. Langford appears the perfect Petracca rotation and I’ve got Laurie as sub as he needs to be rewarded for a strong preseason.

leave it to deever 17,618 Posted February 18 Posted February 18 I think Disco is underrated. He's the tallest player we have in this fwd line up. I wish the club had pick up a very big bodied player with experience as I feel our fwd line lacks firepower still. 1 Quote

DeeSpencer 26,675 Posted February 18 Posted February 18 2 hours ago, Roost it far said: B: Howes May Lever HB: Salem Petty Windsor C: Sharp Oliver Langdon HF: Petracca Turner Spargo/Bowey F: Chandler JVR Fritsch R: Gawn Viney Rivers I: Johnson Sparrow Langford Henderson S: Laurie You’re short a 7th defender there, unless Riv is really only doing cameos on ball or Bowey is playing back from the forward flank. I don’t think Spargo will be rushed this year, they painfully learned that lesson last year. There’s a bunch of players who are playing to win their spot in the preseason games - AJ, Jeffo, the new kids, the new men (Sharp and Henderson). Not having a go at you in particular but I think fans have to come to grips with the idea that Billings is playing to not lose his spot on the wing. If he’s adequate he’ll get the job in round 1. 3 Quote
