you can't expect Boxall to be there, his club is not obligated to release him for starters. And if Boxall doesn't go, then taking Bindon out of CB and replacing him with the likes of Hughes might be a significant weakening of the central defense, though who knows, maybe Hughes rises to the occasion despite his inexperience.
Sheridan might do as good a job at RB as Hughes would do at CB, or better. Sheridan showed no signs of being as defensively suspect as someone like Callan Elliot, it might go alright. AucklandPhoenix
I know people don’t want to play Bindon there but:
It is crucial we have a good defender there.
Most of the creativity from the back will come from Libby on the other flank anyway - don’t need two ultra attacking full backs when we are going to be doing a lot of defending
There are basically no right full backs who are up to standard and taking someone like Ingham as an overage fullback is a joke.
Outside wood and Libby, realistically our two next best overage players are Singh and Boxall.
Singh hasn’t played for a long time, wouldn’t be match fit so I would choose Boxall and partner him with Surman, with Bindon on the right and Libby on the left.
Defense sorted.
Sheridan got 1 start for the Nix. A tough one, away to the Mariners at Gosford. He looked good on attack, but Jacob Farrell and Torres gave him a rough time on D. Sheridan was subbed off at 60 mins, and never started another game for the Nix.
Bazeley ain't going to pick him as starting RB for the Olympics. It's way too high risk. It will be Payne if fit, or someone from Sutton, Kirwan/Roux/Ingham (all o/a). Based on his selection yesterday I think he will leave Bindon at CB.
