| Without it seems... I don't believe he's really a required player, the Lions need to develop young mid-fielders to replace Black and Power in the years to come. |

I'm all for drafting Cousins, but wouldn't touch Nick Davis with a bargepole.
However, I'm not the one making the decisions here and I have a feeling that Davis will be on the side and the whole Cousins drama is far from over yet. |

It would be hard to leave some of the young players out.. but looking at the squad, I gotta tell ya, I got goose bumps.
B:Jason Roe FB:Daniel Merrett B:Joel Macdonald
HB:Josh Drummond CHB:Joel Patfull HB:Jed Ad(ock
W:Brad Dalziell C:Simon Black W:Anthony Ris(hitelli
HF:Nick Davis CHF:Jonathan Brown HF:Jarred Brennan
F:Ashley Mcgrath FF:Daniel Bradshaw F:Rhan Hooper
Fol:Jamie Charman, Ben Cousins, Luke Power
Int: (from) Scott Harding, Travis Johnstone, Justin Sherman, Matthew Leuenberger, Mitch Clark, Troy Selwood.
Emg Cheynee Stiller, Tom Collier, Lachy Henderson.
It would be easy to label the team as "has beens", and I have no doubt thats what most will do. Since the meat of this line up would have been a real "DREAM TEAM" 4 years ago. Davis who virtually got the Swans to a GF, Cousins who won the brownlow and got his side to 2 consequtive GF's as captain and spiritual leader of the club while thier superstar had a run as skipper, Johnstone who was one of the indispensible players (Green, Neitz, Robbo, Bruce) at Melbourne 2 years ago, add them to Black, Brown, Bradshaw and co. and it reads like a superstar "who's who" circa 2005. But if nothing else it will give the young players of the future in Brisbane something to aspire to (waiting for the obligatory cousins drug joke) and will hopefully give Brissie a good mix of youth and experience.
It will be interesting how the team gels. |

| there's no doubt that both players could bring enormous talent with them, but potential baggage to match. Both know they are on their last chances and if they want to play in a flag, brisbane is on the up while st kilda may be on the down, along with nth.. It would relieve pressue on the midfield and the fwd set up, and release guys like Johnstone and Power possibly.. No doubt if they play their best in a lions shirt a top 4 and possibly gf appearance is not unreasonable expectation.. |
