Message: [QUOTE="BroncsFan, post: 3582990, member: 9052"] I think Bancroft has earned his shot at replacing Warner... his shield form looks good over the last few years and he's almost cracked 10,000 shield runs and just turned 31yr. Realistically we need to find 2 openers though and also look to replace Smudge at 4 within the next 2 years you'd think. So if Smudge moves up to open that could allow Green to come into the team at 4. I'm leaning towards that as my second choice, because if Green fails at opener it could end up like early days Uzzie who started at 3 but wasn't able to cement his place and was dropped... it took a long time for Uzzie to get back into the team and was seemingly black listed, until they realised that he was more than handy as an opener. If Green is brought in to open, but then middles around with a 30 average, then he might get put on the scrap heap for a little bit thinking that he can't cut it... so my preference is for Green to be setup as best as possible for him to succeed and that would be to play him in his preferred position of 4. The conversation on who replaces Uzzie and when needs to start happening though... if it's Renshaw then they need to find out from the Bulls if he's going to be opening for them moving forward.
