Looking at our players under 28 to identify needs for the future. Aside from JK who I have confidence will be a regular from next season, I've left out our players who have yet to debut. Have now include Danger who has his bags at the front door and a taxi booked for the airport in early October.
B: Bews, Kolodjashnij, ???
CB: Thurlow, ???, Guthrie
C: Motlop, Duncan, Murdoch
HF: Lang, Walker (?), Cockatoo
F: Gregson, Hawkins, Kersten
Foll: Stanley, Dangerfield, Selwood
Int: Blicavs, ????, ????, ?????
Possibles: Gore, Cunico, Horlin-Smith, Jansen
Needs: Key position backman plus more quality mids needed. Probably a genuine no.1 ruck. Even another flanker or two. But fundamentally we are in a reasonable position considering our success over the past 8 years. The issue really will be about quality. Are the players we are bringing good enough to collectively win a flag?
