He was fighting for my 22nd spot. If i did this every day this week, he'd make the team at least once. Very close to making it and on another day, he probably would.
I agree with you.
He is a match winner.
If this is indeed a side playing on in the grand final (as i suggested), you'd just about pick him. He could win you the game.
If he gets injured, or goes missing, sub him out.
In the end, i went for Zac Williams as my 22nd player.....but could've easily been Plowman (who was stiff to lose the spot to Newman). Ultimately, he would play as the 7th defender, extra midfielder.
Ultimately, i went for a side that could take anything and cover any injury.
2 rucks - Pittonet and TDK.
2 Key backs, with 1 tall backup - Weitering, Young and McGovern
2 Key forwards, with 1 tall backup - McKay, Curnow and Silvagni
Small forwards had 2 genuine, with 1 who can play midfield if required- Durdin, Owies and Fisher
Small/medium backs - 3, with an extra mid/back - Saad, Docherty, Newman and Williams on the bench
2 genuine wingers - O'Brien, Cottrell
5 elite Mids - Cripps, Cerra, Hewitt, with Walsh and Kennedy coming in off the bench. Walsh tagteaming on the wing as he does, with Kennedy being able to sneak forward (or Cripps). With backups of Fisher and Williams for depth.
