Which rookie mids to have on field

[mEnty]

I am fairly set on starting 3 rookies on the field in the mids.

The 4 that I am thinking of are:

Trengove
Scully
Martin
Connos


At the moment I am leaning towards leaving Connors out as I think he will have the least job security.

Which one would you leave out? and why?

[Prospector_1]

Run a poll!

[pinochio]

I agree menty Conners hasnet done anything to spectcular

[mEnty]

Prospector, you took the effort to comment, you could have added an opinion!

[Prospector_1]

I can vote when there's a poll!

(Lots more vote than comment, and I'd like to see the votes, wouldn't you?).

PS, long time no see, and I agree with you!

[mEnty]

Haha, fair enough.

Yeah, I was a bit slow getting into the research this year, been too busy. You can expect more frequent contributions now.

If you are starting 3 on the field doesnt mean you will have 5 mid rookies?

Which 2 others do you have on the bench because im not a fan of connors or a combo of both trengove and scully? I think Banner, Barlow and Shuey would all be worthy bench choices.

[mEnty]

Yeah 5 in total. I have Barlow and Banner warming the pine at the moment.

Why not a fan of having both Trengove and Scully?

im always wary of having 2 unproven mids from the same team let alone 2 rookies... I dont know how Melbourne intend on playing them but you would imagine they wont be pushing for finals and will be trialled in a few different roles.

These guys are obviously good but Melbourne will be expecting 10 year + service out of both of them and wouldnt be suprised if they are nursed through their first season.

What about Barlow? For a 50k saving its worth thought

[BGK]

IMO choose between Trengove and Scully. Either will be fine. Start one of them along with Barlow and Martin. The other melbourne bloke on the bench with either Bastinac or Shuey.

Dustin Martin or Brodie Martin????

[Blueboys]

Barlow, Banner and Jetta should be in the poll too!!!

Dustin Martin  ;D
