Starting Line Up : Tue Jun 14, 2011 8:09 am  

We've seen enough of all the squad this year now, so what's your starting line up for the Dons now, it's getting harder to pick!

Butterfield
Potts
Morrison
Spurr
Colton
Spaven
Fawcett
Scott
Kesik
Carbutt
Green
C Hughes
Edwards

The pack is the hardest to pick for me, also I have included a fully back to 100% Grant Edwards in there

Re: Starting Line Up : Tue Jun 14, 2011 6:51 pm  

Pack it really tough, Robinson, Emmitt & Lawton must have a shout for been in strongest 13
I agee with your starting props, with Dee and Bovill adding impact of bench, leaving no room for Crawley and Sampson
Kesik starting? would be nice to see, Ely or Hughes off bench

The backs, Dobek cover for Fawcett & Spaven, and no place in the starting line up for Sanderson or Coady.
We now have strength in depth

Heres what i think Tony Miller will pick

Butterfield
Potts
Morrison
Spurr
Coady
Spaven
Fawcett
Scott
Ely
Carbutt
Robinson
Lawton
Green

Kesik
Dee
Bovill
C.Hughes if fit (edwards if not)

I wouldn't put Coady ahead of Sanderson, much as I think he (Sanderson) lacks a yard of pace when it matters ... he's our joint top try scorer. He knows where to be and he is great near the line.

It would be a kick in the teeth for Sanderson to not make the squad. He can also take conversions and penalties don't forget.

Coady is unproven this season, he'd only be a sub for me, or at least given half a game start and if he produced then fine.

And I certainly wouldn't play Bovill.
Players who get sent-off/sin-binned/put on report etc are really not what's wanted ... unless their name is Kesik.

Can't believe neither of you have picked Steen, cos he's really good.

Re: Starting Line Up : Wed Jun 15, 2011 3:36 pm  

what about china would you not pick him?

Re: Starting Line Up : Wed Jun 15, 2011 6:42 pm

Do you know Tony and the way his mind works?
Not trying to be funny, but what you think Tony might pick and what he will might be a mile off.
Is your choice the same as what you think Tony's will be?
If not what's yours?

I didn't watch the Oldham game since I was away ... but I would have thought that the side that played that day apart from forced changes should be the side that plays against Gateshead.
To have been part of the set up that nilled a side like Oldham, then to be dropped would be unfair.
Unless of course someone didn't play too well.
