Cook could blow up at anytime, has a ton of talent. Could just as easily spend the year getting sub 10 touches in SANFL. I'm starting to lean towards the latter after being previously more inclined to the former.


For mids, we have some leftovers of the 'grunt' drafting period that need to go but Dowling and Taylor have potential, they both showed they were up to the level last year. Dawson barely played until his 3rd year and only showed any kind of clue he was going to be the player he is in his 5th year. At the worst, those two can be reliable, quality depth. Edwards I'm less sure about but he has time, felt he was a draft reach at the time and haven't seen much to suggest that's not the case.


Oscar Ryan is the one that hasn't been mentioned here, stuck behind a few but have a feeling he may be a guy who gets his chance and explodes. Has some tools and plays the modern game.


Our biggest need is absolutely small forward, especially when we want Rankine up around the ball. Keays and ANB are great in their roles but not small forwards, neither really is Rachele, as good as he is - who plays more of a Jamie Elliot type game. A Bobbly Hill, Charlie Cameron style speedy, nimble, crumbing forward would really round us out.


And obviously a ball playing ruck. Please no more rucks that you have to hold your breath when they get the ball. It's 2025. No one cares about getting taps anymore.
