Concerns or Positives???

Thomas and Pendlebury yes but they contributed last season anyway. You’d hope for more output this year. Heath Shaw I’m not sure about. What makes you think MM will play him midfield?

it seems to be the progression

introduce a player in the BP, then they become an attacking HB, and then get licence to run through the middle

happened with B.Johnson and Swan

And we were seduced by the near miss and did very little to address why it was a near miss because we were so happy as a club with the effort. MM had a photo of the losers on his desk I believe.

im just talking about improvement from 06 to 07.

premierships are much too hard to talk about, u can have the best list and not win the flag, see st.kilda

can have a talented list and lose the players, see geelong

can have a talented list and have it fall apart at the end of the season, see melbourne and adelaide

all im looking at is has there been enough signs from our key kids to show that we may improve in 07.

we have had two games and already

pendles has had a great game
t.cloke has had a good game
thomas has done enough

there is another month or so of trial games, if rus can have a good game, ego have a game where he stands out, and either bryan or richards show continued improvement then we will be well placed going into the season when we bring our senior blokes who produce the consistent quality footy.

the younger blokes are still not going to be able to produce 20+ disposal games every week, or kick 2 or 3, and they simply dont have the experience to know how to try and halt the momentum when another side gets it, which is what happened on friday night.
