Forwards:

It seems to make sense if you just picked a team on best in a role but where is the speed?
That is one of the slowest possible teams you can build from our list!

Hope he proves me wrong, if he does what of Simmo?
I think it's a big assumption to have Doc as a defender, he might not have the speed/run he had previously. I can see him turning over the HBF responsibilities to Stocker, SPS, O'Brien and others and heading into the midfield to support Ed and sMurph.
I expect guys like Dow, Fisher and Newnes will be the run and speed on the wings, no matter where they think they are best suited.
I've based this purely on the perceived attributes of certain players and what we lack as a group.
