McDonald is a premiership player Tomlinson is nothing the sooner he is shown the door the better

Premiership player show some respect. He's better than Tomlinson.

Tomlinson plays we lose. He is that bad. He plays 1 good game out of every ten the rest are rubbish. Haven't given up on T.Mac hopefully he gets a game against Carlton to prove himself. Sick of the rubbish from Tomlinson he's not up to AFL standard.

Opening round B: Lever, May, McVee HB: Salem, McDonald, Rivers C: Hunter, Petracca, Langdon HF: Billings, van Rooyen, Neal-Bullen F: Spargo, Fritsch, Chandler FOLL: Gawn, Oliver, Viney IC: Bowey, Sparrow, K. Brown, Windsor SUB: Laurie Round 1 after a win B: Lever, May, McVee HB: Salem, McDonald, Rivers C: Hunter, Petracca, Langdon HF: Billings, van Rooyen, Neal-Bullen F: Spargo, Fritsch, Pickett FOLL: Gawn, Oliver, Viney IC: Bowey, Sparrow, Chandler, Windsor SUB: K. Brown

Round 2

Apart from Brayshaw, Melksham, Turner, and maybe Petty the rest should all be available for the opening round.

T.Mac and possibly Hunter will be fit enough in 1 and a half weeks.

Then my team is B: Lever, May, McVee HB: Salem, McDonald, Rivers C: Hunter, Petracca, Langdon HF: Billings, van Rooyen, Neal-Bullen F: Pickett, Fritsch, Spargo FOLL: Gawn, Oliver, Viney IC: Bowey, Sparrow, K. Brown, Windsor Laurie, Hore, Woewodin, Verrall

You just can’t replace players like Brayshaw. It will take time but I have confidence in our youngsters. Brayshaw leaves a giant hole in the team.

Now that Brayshaw's retired have to change the team. B: Lever, May, McVee HB: Rivers, McDonald, Salem C: Hunter, Petracca, Langdon HF: Billings, van Rooyen, Neal-Bullen F: Spargo, Fritsch, Chandler FOLL: Gawn, Oliver, Viney IC: Bowey, Sparrow, K. Brown, Windsor SUB: Laurie

Congrats on a great career Brayshaw you will be missed.

If Fullerton doesn't play against Carlton which I think he's a chance to play as is B. Brown then K. Brown takes the last spot on the bench with Fritsch going to full forward and Chandler to the pocket.

I think Langdon deserves a senior game, but if we were to lose and\or Langdon performs poorly then Windsor has to be seriously considered.

You've taken it out of context. It reads with Windsor you can't fit them all in. Not that he's a spud, but I disagree Tomlinson and Schache are spuds the sooner they are off the list the better.

No. McDonald can do it.

I’ll tell you who is cooked Tomlinson complete spud with Windsor can’t fit them all in and with Verrall van Rooyen can take his spot

I've decided on my line up for the opening round due to Hunter being available. B: Lever, May, McVee HB: Salem, McDonald, Rivers C: Hunter, Oliver, Langdon HF: Petracca, van Rooyen, Neal-Bullen F: Fritsch, Fullerton, Spargo FOLL: Gawn, Brayshaw, Viney IC: Bowey, Sparrow, Chandler, Billings SUB: Laurie EMERG: K. Brown, C. Windsor, Woewodin Casey B: Hore, Tomlinson, Freeman HB: Connelly, Adams, Howes C: C. Windsor, Szybkowski, K. Brown HF: Sestan, Schache, Tholstrup F: Jefferson, B. Brown, Moniz-Wakefield FOLL: Verrall, White, Woewodin IC: Farris-White, Steele, Lual, Peters, Shipp EMERG: La Planche, Edwards, K. Windsor

Just realized that Hunter is available for the Carlton game. Think he'll be pushing it to get in the side by opening round but if he can play well against Carlton he'll have a chance.

Anyone writing McDonald off will have egg on their face. He will do the same as he did in 21 when he made CHF his own this time it will be at CHB.

McAdam won't be available opening round. T.Mac Oliver and B. Brown should be available. You never watched the practice game. Tomlinson and Schache were awful and should never play a game in the seniors again.

My next installment for the best 46 B: Lever, May, McVee HB: Salem, McDonald, Rivers C: Brayshaw, Petracca, Langdon HF: Billings, van Rooyen, Neal-Bullen F: Spargo, Fritsch, Chandler FOLL: Gawn, Oliver, Viney IC: Bowey, Sparrow, K. Brown, Windsor SUB: Laurie EMERG: Woewodin, Verrall, Hore Casey B: Hore, Tomlinson, Freeman HB: Connelly, Adams, Lual C: Steele, Szybkowski, Howes HF: Sestan, Schache, Tholstrup F: Jefferson, B. Brown, Moniz-Wakefield FOLL: Verrall, White, Woewodin IC: Fullerton, Farris-White, Peters, Shipp, La Planche EMERG: Edwards, K. Windsor, Bent

Finally watched the game and was not as disappointed as I thought I would be. We were up until the last minute of the 3rd. A last quarter fade out is nothing to worry about when you have nothing to play for. Impressed with K. Brown, Verrall and Windsor. The commentators were terrible it's like they didn't know who the VFL players were. Still don't know who no 10 is and he got a fair bit of the ball. Glad to see Clarry and Salo back.

Ruck rover

I forgot Laurie I put him as an emergency ahead of Howes.
