Surely Wundke in, and happy to have Harder as a forward pocket.
Sign of the way footy is played these days that in a reasonably low-scoring year, there is not a stand-out fullback. Would have thought Georgiou, Crabb and Greiger, even if not in good enough form that would normally warrant selection in this team, have been better than Rudolph?
I reckon George had a 3 or 4 week down period but other than that has been pretty good .. Hard to tell at times I guess with the way Norwood setup.
Most people recognize McGuiness' offensive play, but he's taken some big scalps defensively in the last couple of seasons that often goes unnoticed.
Agree about McGuiness's defensive efforts sometimes going unnoticed. Perhaps because of his size, to me it often seems he is going to be out of position, scrag a little and "just" spoils his opponent, a bit like Stephen Silvagni, rather than a real authoratitve spoil. But then i don't see him every week. Perhaps could have Alleway at CHB and McGuinnes at FB, but how much footy did he play at FB this year?
If they were selecting a genuine State team then I reckon that could work, although I prefer KMac a little further out from goal.
