his senior games and continued to improve. IMO he should start ahead of McGovern but the 800K man will get first crack given his fitness should be better and he has pressure on him
to deliver given his poor 2018.
Agree on Simpson but he will be a starter, dont see him playing NB's footy, if that looks a possibility then he will retire IMO.
So Simmo will be the next Grigg?
In fairness EB1, I don't think Jack and Gov compete for the same spot, I think expecting that of Jack is putting to the sword.

The concept of the best 22 is a bit of nonsense. There are always injuries, loss of form and team balance to consider when picking the best 22 each week. It is really the best 30 that is important and how deep is your squad and whether you can cover injuries to players like Docherty and Rance. I do however like the fact that people are struggling to fit in the likes of Casboult, Plowman, Simpson, Dow, O'Brien, Kennedy, Silvagni, Fisher, Cunningham, Setterfield etc into our best 22.

Yep on Simmo...reckon he will call it a day if form and injuries are making his selection problematic...I dont have an issue
with him going again in 2020 but he needs to be delivering and not being carried through the year.
Ditto for Eddie,he might be bringing in members but if he aint getting enough ball and just saluting a joe the goose goal to the crowd every second week then
you have apply the same logic.
Its a football club not happy acres retirement village and you get picked on performance..
Jack will bleed for the club and McGovern is a hired gun, always a place for a good hired gun and McGovern deserves some slack cut his way after breaking his back and
playing unfit but he needs to deliver to a higher standard than Jack IMO and I think Jack can play his role if he has to all be bit in a different way.

A few names NOT featured......Kennedy, Dow, O’Brien, Stocker.
Despite the fact that it’s a Fox Footy product, I think that’s pretty close to our best 22 for round 1 of next season. The only changes I would make are Samo to HBF, Gibbo to HFF and Simmo to the bench.
It will be good to see Kennedy, Dow, O’Brien, Stocker, Cuningham, Polson, De Koning and Pittonet putting pressure on for a spot in the 22.

We don’t have him yet and, on 2019 form, he’s not in our best 22.
The best I’m hoping for, if we do get him, is that he joins with Kennedy, Dow, O’Brien, Stocker, De Koning, Pittonet and others in putting selection pressure on those in the 22.

His manager sounded quietly determined to get him to our club, would be disappointing to get him and for him not to be in our best 22.

True, but on current form he isn’t in Gold Coast’s best 22. Hopefully, a change of scenery and a bit of mentoring from Eddie and he’ll be a different player.
