If we are going for more run it won't be Gibbons that loses his job!

Yes. If Gibbons can't get a game we will have a good side.
Re: Best 22 so far - Amers - 11-30-2019
Right, let me have a crack at this!
Best, oldest, most experienced 22
FB; L. Plowman, L. Jones, C. Marchbank
HB; S. Docherty, J. Weitering, K. Simpson
C; W. Setterfield, E. Curnow, J. Newnes
R; M. Kreuzer, P. Cripps, M. Murphy
HF; J. Silvagni, C. Curnow, J. Martin
FF; M. McGovern, H. Mackay, E. Betts
Int; N. Newman, S. Petrevski-Seton, S. Walsh, M. Gibbbons
There are about half a dozen guys fighting for that last spot, I gave it Gibbons for his age and ( mostly VFL!) experience.
Best of the rest
FB; B. Silvagni, H. Goddard, T. Williamson
HB; L. Stocker, H. Macreadie, B. Kemp
C; L. O'Brian, M. Kennedy, Z. Fisher
R; M. Pittonet, P. Dow, D. Cuningham
HF; C. Polson, L. Casboult, D. Lang
FF; F. Phillips, T. De Koning, F. O'Dwyer
Int; S. Philp, S. Ramsay, M. Cottrell, M. Owies, J. Honey
We have an over supply of Mids and a shortage of half backs, its possible Stocker may get more time back there than in the midfield.
As much as Kemp says he wants to play midfield, I reckon his best position will be as a Grant Birchall type half back and I think he will be very good in that role.
With Kerr gone and no KPP picked up in the drafts, we are also a little light on for KPP forwards.
Our midfield depth is staring to look good, and many of our mids can go forward too which is helpful!

That team could win a flag or three.
Swap out Betts for Papley in 2021.

Here's hoping !! ;D
Re: Best 22 so far - yobbarella - 12-01-2019
Personally I would like for Eddie to still be there. If he is it it would be because he demands a spot.
Can imagine with Martin, a trio of headaches for the opposition - beautiful to watch, and a great space for our younger forwards to learn and enjoy their footy.
If Martin can get close to the suns tape posted by flyboy77 - wow !

Sam Walsh on the bench? I think not. Same with Casboult. Cannot see it.

I think 'the bench' is no longer seen as separate to the starting 18.
It's not necessarily the case that your bench players are 'fringe' players.
They may be amongst your best.
In most cases they're just there as part of the midfield rotations.
You're probably not going to name your captain(s) on the bench so you won't see Cripps or Docherty listed there but all the others (non KPP half forwards, half backs and mids) are just 'the mix.'
Being named there doesn't necessarily mean you're not best 18.
It's more to do with match-ups, starting impact, taking some early heat or grunt work, as to who starts and that depends to a large extent on who you're playing.

Spot-on Lods.
Tigers, Cats, West Coast and others have been doing that for a while now.
