I hope they don't try and do what they did with Rance, and move Gibcus forward. They recruited him as a backman so play him as a backman. I think the same with Brown. I really see these two, along with Balta, forming the nucleus of a premiership winning backline in the future. If Banks also steps up, we have a very strong backman, who can also push up the ground.
Sonsie could be anything. I'm excited by his potential, his skills and his pace but I feel like I'm describing Stack here. Hopefully, he doesn't have the same attitude as Stack too. What I suspect has happened is that he completely lost motivation over the Covid period and just needs some support, clear goals and leadership from the stars/leaders on our list and he'll be everything as good as we all hope he'll be.
Clarke could be our eventual replacement for Lambert. I think they will develop him at VFL level in the role and move him in when Lambert needs a rest.
I'm probably more excited about this years draftees that I have been in quite some time and am looking forward to how they fir into the squad over this Pre-season. Moreso than ever, our 2nd - 5th year depth players, really need to step up at VFL level and work to stop these young talented stars skipping past them. The competition for spots in the backline and midfield will be one to keep an eye on over this Preseason and throughout the season.
