MacDougall and Peden should be two of the first players picked. Albert was good but was very injury prone. MacDougall at his best was a much, much better footballer. I'd have Peden starting ahead of Muir.

Owen Craigie just won another Grand Final. Captained Wallsend Marylands to win A Grade defeating Windale 44-16.

Billy - I reckon Robbie Ross was a better fullback than Gidley.

How many times did he get a 10/10 player rating in his few games for the Knights?

I've gone for a realistic bench, meaning I needed two props. I hated leaving out Robbie McCormack!!!

I don't know Billy. Gidley would be on the bench with Ross at fullback for mine. The team wanted was home grown not how good they were for us. Robbie Ross was that good as a junior he made the Hunter Region side without showing up to the lead up and being totally outplayed in the possibles and probables.

Craigie was a great player. I can still remember him scoring after the siren against the Bears in the Preliminary Final to take us to the Grand Final back in 1997. It's a shame how gambling problems killed his career.
