Probable Best XV's for 2014

[Holz]

What about the mighty Islanders? ;)

Backs: D. Terlich T. Mohr, L. Spurr, A. Otten
Mids: J. Redden (C), T. Mitchell, J. Martin, B. Howlett
Ruck: M. Leuenberger (VC)
Forwards: J. Blair, M. de Boer, L. Thomas, J. Howe
Utilities: J. Elliot, M. Grigg

tom mitchell is a forward.

Mitchell up front and in Martin should be huge.

I think the Islanders could be more competitive for sure, still reckon having Rocky over Redden would have been better, but it'll be interesting to see if it makes a difference.  :)

[Jukes]

This is with Heppell and Seedsy not having DPP.

D: H. Shaw, L. Dunn, S. Docherty, N. Vlastuin
M: R. Griffen, J. O'Meara, C. Ward, D. Heppell
R: Z. Clarke
F: N. Naitanui, D. Martin, A. Monfries, J. Hogan
U: P. Seedsman, J. Thomas

Emg: D. Sheed, J. Frawley, J. Jenkins

Rocky lost his dpp, turns out we traded him at a decent time. Rocky beats Redden but does Rocky beat Redden, Hurley and Day? I'll let you decide that one ;)

Smpson
Tippett, Dahlhaus, Henderson, Motlop
Judd, Mitchell

big fan of tokyo, clear top 8 sqaud im thinking.

You guys just need to get good value for Mitchell and Judd and you could push for flag in a few years. Probably need a solid ruck to compete with the big boys.

cheers Holz

due to points caps we are stuck with Mitchell and Judd :'(

i think Tippett will be F/R in 2015

zero chance of DPP, he was never going to get it and leaked postions have him losing it. 99.9999% certain R only

[Jroo]

Mexico City Suns
B: Bartel, Hodge, Adcock, Enright
M: Sidebottom, Goddard, Ebert, Lewis
R: Maric
F: Crameri, Yarran, Goodes, Nroo
U: S.Thompson (ADEL), Vince

EMG: Moloney, Sandilands, Hurn

We really need to improve our forwards, when does trade period 2 start?

[Nige]

As if Hurn isn't best XV.  :o

Trade him to Cairo!  :P

[Ringo]

The Royals Probable best 15

Def: Lumumba; McVeigh; Mackie, Reilly
Mids: Stanton (C). Hannerbery, Danyle Pearce, Broadbent
Ruck: Bellchambers
Forwards: Mayne, Winderlich, Staker, Matera
Utilities: Mackay; Shane Edwards

Unlucky players that may vie for positions Rampe, Laird, Danniher, J Brown, Josh Hill. Q Lynch and Andrew Moore.  If Hudson or Gorringe named I have the option of playing Bellchambers as a forward as well.

We have a lot of players averaging 70 - 85 who need to lift that by 10ppg this year.

In terms of best 15, i think i got this. but they just be my bias.

Yep would say in terms of best 15 yours may be just ahead, but when depth comes in to considering I would say I'm far ahead...

Harwood, McMahon, Buntine and Whitecross stronger defense depth than Schoenmakers, Murphy, Delaney etc.
Hill, Wallis, Polec, Martin etc better mid depth than Grigg, NVB
Jacobs and Daw definitely better ruck depth than Holmes
Your forward depth may be a little stronger on current averages, but Stringer, Paparone, Sumner much better potential than your lot.

Will be an interesting season :)

must be noted if Goldy gets injured Dixon comes on not Holmes. So esenatially my cover for Goldy is Mitch Clark.

I may have a trick up my sleave to improve my depth rapidly.
