Looking at the State Game being just over a month away I thought it might be the time to stir some interest up and getting people debating the side for the game and who they would pick.
I have picked a side on watching a few games and reading match reports so it has been a bit difficult but it is a start to get the debate rolling.
I am unsure on the exact rules the SANFL have for the State Side so I have not picked any AFL listed players or 1st year players into the SANFL.
The sides I have seen play so either live or on tv are -
NORWOOD, GLENELG, EAGLES, CENTRALS twice
SOUTH, PORT once
HERE IS MY SIDE.
F - Warren (SA) - Vlatko (N) - Backwell (G)
HF - Mitchell (G) - Gill (NA) - Ladhams (NA)
C - Gallagher (N) - Fisher (G) - J. Clayton (PA)
HB - B. James (N) - McKenzie (E) - DePasquale (PA)
B - Sherwood (G) - Ah Chee (PA) - McGlone (SA)
R - Lindsey (E) - Borlace (N) - Sheedy (ST)
I - Parry (SA) - Kenna (SA) - Passador (E) - Ivens (NA)
EMERGENCIES - Waterhouse (PA) - Handby (SA) - Zorzi (N) - Cicolella (E) - Bailey (N)
I have picked a side looking at having a tall forward line to get the ball into quickly with Backwell and Ladhams crumbing.
Running back line with the solids rocks of Ah Chee and Sherwood holding the fort allowing good run from the back lines.
Centre and Rucks speak for themselves all proven SANFL players and having great years this year.
Interchange has Parry to share the Ruck Duties, Kenna to rotate through on the ball, Ivens to cover down back, Passador as a mr fix it up forward or down back.
I am sure I have missed some worthy players. So feel free to comment and get the debate started.
