Too soon.

But if Jack or Rance go down we are in deep deep poo.

Wait and see what impact the Prestia/Caddy combo will have . Might refresh the whole playing group.

We could possibly win 10 games and have a percentage in the mid 90s - wont be enough to save Dimma though.

I can't see the team that can't win without Deledio winning many games after trading him away.

Would like to see more development of our kids. Cellis to step up, Rioli to dazzle. Oleg "the gazelle" Markov to have a big year.

I see that 8 as something like:

GWS
Syd
Adel
WC
Dogs
Hawt
Geel
Freo (BIG inclusions in the off season, plus Bennel to get out on the park - can see them bouncing back)

Throw in St. Kilda and Melbourne to threaten
Unsure on Port and Essendon.

The rest will be making up the numbers.

Hopefully high enough to keep Martin & make Fyfe think we're going places....preferably on the back of a late run under McRae or Caracella... :shh

It will take a while for the three new guys to adapt to chipping sideways and sitting off the ball.
Caracella and Balmey.

Depends who's going to kick all the goals as l still think we have a major problem up forward.. We need to draft a forward maybe John Butcher  :snidegrin

l would like to think 7th
