Are we likely to attract anything but some gusty winds to the MCG in the coming week or so?
We need mids, and quality ones. We lose Col. So right away we are one down without starting the trade period. IMO, we needed 3 quality mids to add to our list. Now with Sylvia gone, that number is 4. Can't see us attracting 4 quality mids this trade period. Will be lucky to snag 1. I really hope Roos is working his magic behind the scenes as we could go into next season in worse shape than this one through the middle.
We simply have to snag a Rockliffe, Shuey or Sloane just to replace the loss of Sylvia. As much as Sylvia was a disappointment, he had a strong body and experience. Something our current midfield lack(besides Jones). So I'm starting to think it will take 3 years(Roos contract period) to get a midfield together that will be competitive(if we are lucky).
If we don't snag a couple of quality midfielders this trade period, where do you guys see us next year? We simply cannot continue to get smashed in the middle of the ground. I'm sick of seeing us lose the possession count by over 100. I'm sure our defenders are as well.
