Definitely our midfield for me, odd in a certain sense in the way we dismantled sydney in the GF.
There were games this year in which we simply couldn't get our hands on it in the middle, the first quarter of the prelim against port a glaring reminder.
Seem to lack a premium mid of sorts in the ilk of ablett, watson, selwood, fyfe. What we lack in quality, however, we seem to make up with sheer quantity and the numbers we can throw through the midfield. No other team has this kind of versatility. Always a great ace up our sleeve.
In saying that, there seems to be plenty of organic improvement to be had in the middle. Langford gets another pre season under his belt. Whitecross, anderson back in business. Woodward gets his chance, Lewis now in elite category.
The recruitment of o'rourke could be extremely significant, hopefully in '15, but certainly in years to come if the hawthorn stable can turn this one into the group 1 champion some say he has the potential to be.
Like someone previously stated, we break even here for the majority of the year, I can't see us not finishing top 2
