Best 22 for 2020

[Ralph Dawg]

Bit rough on the newbies Dawg. You cant expect them to just slot in and play like champions. Big difference between SANL and the big time. McInerney might be a good player with good players around him.

Sorry Nico, my post is a bit ambiguous. I'm not expecting the newbies to slot straight in and play like champions. What I am saying is that I can appreciate why we will stick with our AFL experience players for the early rounds.

However, if it becomes apparent that there is no improvement in our team, then we need to get the newbies in to accelerate their progress. I just feel that the NEAFL is a pretty average standard relative to the AFL and the young guys will improve more playing AFL.
