Review 2015 Final List Changes

[ReaperX]

Pretty happy with the list changes. Pending what happens with Dusty, I'd argue we only lost 1 best 22 player in 2015 (Newy) - who some would say was probably past it anyway and gain a potential elite talent in Yarran, a future best 22 player in Rioli, some potentially shrewd recyled players (we have a decent track record of turning into better players) plus a number of exciting youngsters and prospects. Outside of Newman's leadership and experience, we also lost the experience and professionalism of guys like Foley and Knights who's bodies were cooked either way plus some solid depth players like Dea, Petterd and Arnot.

Overall, I'd say our 2016 list is a bit stronger (both in top end talent and depth) than 2015.

but but but... we didn't get an A GRADER DEMMIT!

No but seriously, this is absolutely spot on.

See latest AFL midfield rankings have us at 9th.

Probably fair given our fade out last year. Who's going to lift us in 2016?
