Good discussion boys, Scoullar is probably the toughest player to fit in the team, it might depend on how fot he actually is. I think Henderson should play at right back, he had a good season with Cavy and I think offers more speed and attack going forward than Smith. Hard on Mike Smith though who I thought was one of Otago's best last year.
Its hard in attack Scoullar Burgess and Dugdale are all kind of similar in all quite strong on the ball. Burgess has to play as he has an uncanny knack of finding space in between defenders and rarely misses many chances. I would stil play him in behind the front two though as he has great passing ability as well. Dugdale looks strong on the ball as well and I think Jackson off the bench for Scoullar last 30 minutes would run teams ragged in the back end of games.
Coburn holding it has to be although if Chisolm comes in then he could perform this role to free up Coburn to move forward slightly. Either was as I haven't seen that much of Gardiner, Deeley worries me slightly he always peforms well for Cavy but has had a few cracks for Otago before and never really quite made the step up. Hopefully this will be his year now he's a liitle bit older.
 
Imports aside this is looking like an exciting Otago team, pity the games are st Sunnyvale and not the Caley or Carisbrook cos I would actually pay $5 to see them this year.
Anyone know if its gonna be free to watch them at Sunnyvale?
