Brown has played great footy for us when fit so not sure why he getting grief in here. Smart player, intercept marker & high possession winner as a defender.
Hartley to Jenkins & Brown to McGovern are good matchups & also frees up Hurls.
We never start as named so no way the 3 talls + Stringer will be there. TIPPA, Green and Begley the pressure smalls. And McKenna will be starting off HBF without a doubt.
Rejigged…
B: Saad Hartley Hurley
HB: Dea Brown McKenna
C: McGrath Hep Zaka
HF: Stewart JD TIPPA
F: Green Hooker Begley
R: Belly Stringer Zerrett
B: Goddard Smith Parish Langford
I think it’s a good mix pending what players Crows bring in for fwd line, we may drop Dea for Bags.
Probably won’t line up this way, but if we need to re-arrange this, it turns into a pretty handy looking team. If Bags is in semi reasonable form I wouldn’t mind swapping him for Dea, unless there is a better match up for Dea - could happen. Brown might be a better match for Jenkins than Hartley as well.
Be interesting to look at the match ups with the Crows and work out the best backline.
