I missed ANB.

With Hogan gone, we really need Trac and Weid to step up with more goals. Would love to see Jeffy recapture his 2017 form. More goals from ANB and Melks as well.

If you complete remove Hogans goals from last year we were still the 4th best scoring side in the comp. Make up about 15 goals I think which is less than 1 a game and we are top 2.
Our attack isn't the problem, conceding 80-100 points from teams with less inside 50s was our problem

Agree (the emphasis on improving defense) but with our without Hogan - Trac, Melks, ANB and especially Weid all need to improve.

Considering the performance in the prelim I'd say alot of blokes have to improve.

This is probably the easiest 6.

HF: Petracca T Mc ANB
FF: Spargo Weid Melksham

ANB is a lock unless the rest of the forwards step it up defensively and with 2 way running.
Spargo is a lock unless there's a crumber with smarts and work rate
The other 4 pick themselves.

That said, the 7th forward spot on the bench is a tough one!
