A few different choices to most of our board but I don't mind it.
The consensus from media personnel is that JUH will be second half of the year. But I don't necessarily think he's ruled out of playing early. He seems to be training well (from the curated view we see on social media).
One certain change - no way that Dimma wouldn't put Will Graham in the team. He would be in ahead of Lombard in that half forward / midfield role.

Would he be the runner next year?

Anyone have any insight into how Humphrey has gone integrating back into the group since the preseason dummy spit
Not sure he’s smart enough to realise what he’s done.
Well I was thinking they need to find him a hot local Gold Coast GF but if Jake works let’s go with that.
I don’t think they approve of that in Moe, might affect his pillar status

Better than an Arizona base camp.
Good summary by Ben.
This is what will make it a dynasty

I'm interested to know how many players are set to crest those respective milestones next year though.
Average age: 24.1 (equal 14th oldest)
Average games: 63.9 (15th most experienced)
Most games: Touk Miller (214)
Players with 100-plus games: 14
Players with less than 50 games: 25
eg. How many are expect to obtain 100 game status and how many are due to hit 50...

If this isn't based off our best 23 it's a bit misleading. We're thereabout average for ages and game exp based off our best side I believe.

Bodhi 49 games
Farrar 42 games
Davies 40 games
Clohesy 36 games
Are close to 50, no-one is close to 100
I looked at Footywire
According to the above article we got 14 100-plus games players. No additional players will hit 100 games in 2026.
According to article we got 25 players with less than 50 games.
These players could reach 50 games milestone in 2026:
B Uwland 49, Walter 30, Read 25, W Graham 25, Clohesy 34, Davies 40, Farrar 42.
Suns got most top-10 picks. Can we keep them all? Salary cap pressure coming for sure. Good bye Pillar I suspect one of King/Walter will leave too (Walter is my guess). And then there is Pillar's buddy Rogers.
All-Australians: 4 (Christian Petracca - 4 times, Touk Miller - 2 times, Noah Anderson, Matt Rowell)
Rising Star winners: 0
Top-10 draft picks: 12 (Matt Rowell, Jamarra Ugle-Hagan, Christian Petracca, Noah Anderson, Zeke Uwland, Jed Walter, Mac Andrew, Dylan Patterson, Ben King, Bailey Humphrey, Ethan Read, Leo Lombard)

I think we are more likely to lose King. Just have an inkling on it.Suns got most top-10 picks. Can we keep them all? Salary cap pressure coming for sure. Good bye Pillar

You could be right. It will be interesting. I am mentally ready. King will never be a contested beast but his 71 goals was handy.
I guess it also depends on can JUH make it. In 2027 Walter and Read will be in their 4th year and should start delivering. But they are not there yet right now. I am optimistic about Read. Walter is still sometimes running like headless chook.

The thing with King is that all his goals come off someone else's hard work. Dont get me wrong its a skill in its own to get to the right spot, but he isn't the sort of player to win a big decisive marking contest and kick a big goal. I think his output is replaceable.
