    Cynic. I on the other hand am still with Christmas cheer and wearing my new rose coloured glasses.

    He had am good season for what he does. He gets the ball which is half our problem. But with the need for speed and a bit of class, Ross and McAuliffe are up his clacker, not to mention Lalor, Hotton, Cumming coming fast. Can't see Hopper, Prestia and Taranto together in the middle like last...

    Analysis 2026 List Analysis

    I thought Lynch looked pretty spritely after his hiatus for belting whomever. Moved better than he had all season probably due to having a good 5 weeks of training without game day trauma after 2 years out. Hopefully that is a portent for 2026, back with good fitness and confidence. Not sure...

    I think Hopper is pretty over-rated. Can get it at the coal face and that's about it. Okay handballer, kicking is poor to average. Good sidestep. So slow off the mark his opponents get away from him in a step. What is this brittle foot bone thing. Ross played 23 games last season, many off the...

    Worst forward line last year. Lynch coming off two injury wasted years was below par. But full preseason and injury free still one of the best targets in football. Lalor, Hotton, Campbell, Faull, Armstrong and others will add a tonne of class and grunt. Totally different to last year. We could...

    Our weakest line is our centre mids. Lalor, Hotton etc will help but if we go with the same this year it will be rinse and repeat. I don't subscribe to the idea that we are treading water until our young players come on in a few years. Our forward line with Lynch and the youth will be strong or...

    Ross got better the longer the season went because he was back in the middle. He has a good all-round game, far more creative than any of our other established mids. Better handballer, kick, mark, tackler, cleaner all round. Doesn't get first hands on it as much as the others, so a bit more...

    Maybe. Prestia is also a week by week proposition. He may overtake Hopper

    He's a connector, which makes him a bit like Prestia was at his peak. He has a good running game but is also clean and uses it well. Should be a breakout year if the coaches back him.

    Smillie knocked 23 possessions half fit @ 50-60 percent game time in one of his 3 games. He’s a mid because he can find and can use it. It’s still 2025. Plenty of time

    Training Pre-season 2026

    It's true, but he comes from a fair way back. Miller and Balta are certainties. Broad deserves his spot although I would like to see him moved to fit in players like Trainor and Grey who are both the same size so add him to the list. Gibcus surely deserves a good look at, above Gray. Gray's...
