That'd be pretty close to mine, perhaps with the exception of Zuthrie being the new draftee showing most in 2017.

Pretty similar to most I'd suspect, see a few big up Henry so I may have someone to keep an eye on at the VFL now.

On Duncan, do you see him being traded by the club or being willing to move?
New contract and a baby on the way.

Having done a lot of analysis on each of the lists it has become apparent we likely wont be making finals this year.

1. Compared to the other clubs we really lack top end talent.

I rate us as having 2 genuine A graders which is the worst in the competition. If people want to count Henderson and Hawkins as A graders we are still way short of the top clubs.

2. The rising teams

Collingwood, Port, Essendon, GC, StKilda and Melbourne have all made significant improvements in the off season. They also have natural improvement from having young talented lists. We went backwards slightly.

3. Our huge home ground advantage

A blessing and a curse, last year we had 8 home games and won 7 only losing to the Swans.

This year we get 7 home games, 3 of them are against GWS, Sydney and the Bulldogs. If we win 1 of those games and all the rest that is 5 home wins compared to 7 last year.

4. No 3rd man up

Smith and Stanley are serviceable rucks but thats all they are. It’s a big help when against a Goliath they have Blicavs coming in from the side.

How will they go against Gawn, Goldy, Sandilands, Grundy etc? Probably not great.

5. Teams implementing faster ball movement

We all know Chris Scott loves his tall slow back line. It works great at Kardinia Park when teams dont have as much room to move and kick the ball in long.

However with the success of the Bulldogs more teams have been trying to move the ball on quick and quick ball movement exposes our back line.

6. New look Back line

No Enright and no Taylor.

Henderson has been there a year. Thurlow back from a knee injury. Stewart coming from the VFL.

A solid back 6 who have played a lot of games together is the foundation of good sides.

Ours has some good players but they are still new to each other. Cant expect them to be a solid cohesive unit straight away.

7. Dysfunctional forward line

Harry Taylor, Aaron Black, Rhys Stanley are any of these guys going to be a genuine tall option?

Is Hawkins playing 22 games this year? What if he gets injured?

Is Menzel playing 22 games?

Is McCarthy?

Gregson is already injured

8. Great inside mids poor forward entries

We have 2 of the best inside mids in the game and some good serviceable players in there like Menegola, S Selwood, Blicavs, GHS.

The problem is our forward entries are hideous.

Besides GHS (who doesnt get games) these guys have pretty average foot skills and with our lack of targets, bomb it long to Hawkins will again be the standard entry into the 50.

9. Too many talls

Will the likes of Lonergan, Mackie and Blicavs miss games for structure? I just dont see it happening.

There isnt the quality depth underneath to push those guys out. Structurally we should but we probably wont.

10. We have the most number of 0 gamers in the comp.

16 players on our list have not played a single game. That puts our list of players with experience at 29.

Out of those 16 players Parfitt is the highest draft pick at 26. It’s list clogger central.


I’m predicting around 9 wins for the year and finishing between 10th and 14th. (I originally thought a prelim loss but after much analysis I cant see us getting anywhere near that)

It's hard to see us winning a game based on that. I may as well throw in the towel and become a naturist.
 
Like your analysis cynical, and definitely don't disagree with some of your points.

Overall though, there should still be enough talent to win 12-13 games at least. I hope.

The fragility of the overall team - particularly the forward line - is worth mentioning. We are so dependent on having Hawkins, Selwood, Dangerfield, Henderson, and Lonergan stay fit. Things could get very interesting without them.
