A very different side. A strong midfield seeing as Watson, Winderlich and Stanton are in thier young twenties now and we have drafted many small and promising players in the last 2 years (5 in the last draft). Ryder will be great as a number 1 ruckman. Problems could possibly come from the changing of the guard of key position players.
Why do people ask these questions, 5 years is a very long time in footy

I'll probably see them at the Telstra Dome, sometimes at the MCG.
Might even venture interstate every now and again.
Newbies.....
Brilliant insight there.

The question stated a few years and the general exception is that 2/3 is a couple and 4/5 is a few hence DaSawx was right in questioning it.
Our first premiership window is probably 2 years away when Lloyd and Lucas are still with us and hopefully playing solid footy still at 31. If we miss it it will likely be another 4-5 years after that once we have sufficient development into guys like Johns, Gumbleton, houli, Davey, Jetta, Dempsey, Ryder and others. And thats providing we can keep that list together, there are a few WA boys on our list and they seem to have set the precedent on wanting to return home early, Headland and Carr walked out on Premiership teams!

ryder will be the best ruck in the league, houli will be a star (not an absolute elite midfeilder) but one of our best. lloyd and lucas in their last year and probably fletcher too... will have a good year 3 years from now to see off the big guns..
