How much of an impact will they have on the league long term? We know the Gold Coast were the big winners by securing both O'Meara and Martin while Adelaide and Melbourne signed Crouch and Hogan respectively. Obviously O'Meara is the most accomplished to date by winning the rising star award and playing all 22 rounds in 2013 but they say Jack Martin is set for an even better first season. Melbourne have enormously high hopes with Jesse Hogan after a very good year in the VFL with Casey which included a club best and fairest award. Brad Crouch is tipped to have a breakout year in 2014 and I'm sure we'll hear more of that name as the year progresses.
So what are these guys going to achieve at their respective clubs? Can Hogan pull the Demons out of the abyss? Will Martin have a better first year than O'Meara? Will they both stay at the Gold Coast? Can Crouch get the Crows back in the 8?
