JOM is very sad that he has not made your best 44!
Keen to see how MacDonald goes.
I'm still concerned Cox is too slow for our game style.

Dec 2023 to Nov 2024 list changes, tried to line them up as like for like as I could, overall we’ve lost a bit of height, but I think it’s fair to say the quality has improved with nearly every selection.
Out : In
Kuek : Voss
Tabs : Nichols
Hughes : Kelm*
Corbett : Carr
Stanley : Reid
Emmett : Narkle*
Williams : Bolton
Kelm and Narkle are to be confirmed, but when you do this like for like comparison the Nichols draft selection makes sense. Personally was hoping for Gerryen for that role, but in Walls we trust.

After some shuffling around we're looking a lot more balanced after the draft. If we can snag Toner and then Kelm as a Cat B, that rounds is out pretty nicely.

2025 is an inflection point between the old and the young for FFC.
I think 2024 was the last year when we had to include old and wise heads substantially because they are old and wise. The players I am thinking of are Walters/Fyfe/O'Meara.
Overall in 2024, despite some good games and special moments, Walters was C grade, Fyfe B- and O'Meara B.
In 2025 Walters and Fyfe are likely to slide further and O'Meara stay much the same.
I think it is a huge mistake to play all 3 in the best 23.
At the same time we have young players that age-wise should be at the start of their prime (ie 4th/5th season) who through lack of opportunity and injury are yet to prove that they have a long-term future in the best 23. I'm thinking Erasmus/Johnson/O'Driscoll. They have to be given consistent runs in the firsts in 2025 for everyone to know where they sit in our plans. IMO it would be disastrous if they lacked opportunity because we played Walters/Fyfe/O'Meara.
We are blessed with on-field leadership because the likes of Brayshaw/Serong/Treacy play and lead like they have 5 years more experience than they have. Much of what Walters/Fyfe/O'Meara bring is now surplus to our needs.
I hope the 2025 selection committee are bold and choose the team based on what is best for 2025-2030.

I'd be happy to target a rebounding half back today. Probably agree that if Toner was the most likely prospect available, and we're taking Kelm projecting him as a half back, that's fair.
We've got some depth down back, but could do with developing some ball use and rebound, longer term replacement on Wagner's role.

Apologies, had no idea GC were trying to rival Richmond as the biggest douche bags in the AFL.
Poor Max has to pack his bags and fly to the Gold Coast while we scramble, pick up a mobile 19 yo ruck, then head off for Friday night drinks

I agree with this team
Except Banfield the ball butcher. Aish for Sub. He is far cleaner with ball

I like this team a lot, think it’s closer to our 2026 B22 (or perhaps 2025 finals team) imagine if all those youngsters have a massive preseason and round one WAFL Peel team has Reidy, Fyfe, Brodie and JOM lining up for the first centre bounce!
Edit: I’d update some of the positions of the reserve team:
Reserves 22
Walters Voss Riddle
Carr Nichols Simpson
Banfield Brodie Reid
Wagner Murphy Aish
Davies Macdonald Worner
Reidy Fyfe O’Meara
Int: Delean, Jones, Kelm (?), Narkle (?)

I think Aish is almost the perfect sub. B-grade player almost all over the ground, and good disposal. Banners always seems to score as a sub though. Good place to be in for the squad.
