Best 22 Pre draft

Well we're all in on the rebuild. Is it a quick one, 3 years, 5 years, 10??

I'm actually quite bullish on some youngsters we have already. My main caveat is our ability to develop and coach them properly.

The draft gives an opportunity to draft quality mids and runners/transition players. A few quality talls and finishers will also help. When I put our remainders into a second team it's obvious we have gaping holes in midfield.

Anyway my best 22 pre draft.

Broad Gibcus Blight
Smith Vlaustin (c) Tresize
Short Prestia (vc) Banks
Green Brown Mansell
Lefau Lynch (vc) Balta
Nank Ross Mcauliffe

Int Taranto Hopper Rioli Miller

Remainders ( I have assumed Cumbo Coultard Dow Mcintosh and Colina will be delisted)

DRAFTEE Young Ryan
DRAFTEE Kosi DRAFTEE
Ralphsmith Sonsie Clarke
DRAFTEE DRAFTEE Campbell
Bauer Fawcett Gray
OHB DRAFTEE DRAFTEE

INT: Draftee Draftee Draftee Draftee

Is everyone going to be available for round 1?

With a few knees done later in the year, I think some might miss the start of the season

It's my best 22. Not Yze's.:)

Having said that Campbell also has a chance to show if he is a midfielder and he will get opportunities. I'm also expecting Ralphy, Sonsie, Clarke, Bauer Fawcett and maybe even OHB to get some senior game time this year

Whatever happens in the coming weeks we are going to have a distinctly different team running out at Round 1 and it is going to be an interesting season. I am looking forward to see our development progress in 2025
