King is not the physically strongest tall forward but Gibcus is at this stage, more of a flanker than a key defender.

Team v Gold Coast
- Thread starter momentai
- Start date
Agree on Kamdyn but realistically he will play. Hopefully gets pushed out by Banks or Smith before the end of the season. Pickett still has something to offer IMO.
Agree Young is a worry but again realistically he will play. If he drops off it opens up a role for Bauer
Kosi, same as Young. But he gets an opportunity with Lynch out. If he plays like yesterday, he won't last long
Campbell I think has what it takes. Would like to see him at AFL level. Think he will step up
Hopper I still expect to come good. Every chance Prestia is injured by opening round anyway.
You dont give him enough credit Cart.
He is vanilla but effective.
And for starters he can actually run.
Thats looming as a very very expensive problem.He is a speedier, more composed and damaging option
Than hospital hopper currently
As of right due to a 5 day turnaround post Suns game I have a suspicion the Tigers will stagger Gibcus and Grimes start to the season.
For example Gibcus might play against the Suns then miss the Blues game and will be managed allowing Grimes back in against the Blues or vice versa.
Tigga should come in to play against Gold Coast.

Grover was poor last season, I think he will be one of the first to be usurped as soon as the juniors have the aerobic ability and work rate to take his spot.
Ross just needs some motivation. Every Match he gets over 25 possessions he gets a new mirror!!
I'm still tempted to play Campbell and Steely against the Suns they've had good preseasons and earned their place.
Plus there's really no other smalls to do the job up forward with Moju out of form and lacking condition, Mansell injured and Clarke and Coulthard also returning from interrupted preseasons.

I reckon Naismith was told he’s a half chance to come in and ruck with Nankervis round 1 but he had to show some wares forward. hence his excellently desperate forward clunk Q2. He was selling himself as an alternative to Kosi.
Kosi has not sold himself as remotely AFL material. I reckon he’s pure forward insurance.
Broad Young Short
Grimes Gibcus Vlastuin
Pickett Prestia Rioli
Martin Balta Bolton
Naismith Green Campbell
Nankervis Hopper Taranto
Graham Baker Sonsie Mcauliffe

Cumberland has to be in before Campbell or Green.
He’s got runs on the board and has shown more than those two combined at this stage.
Deserves to get first crack

I'm content to have all 3 in.
Cumbo for Graham.
This side lacks speed and spark at ground level especially in the forward 50.
Make the ground ball our friend.
