Our most important 6 will be the bottom 6 who are picked to play seniors each week. People who bitch and whinge about the GC loss conveniently forgot the injuries that depleted our team selection that week exposed our lack of depth.
Maybe we still should've won but our poor depth made us vulnerable that day and this will continue until we address it with the right combination of drafting and trading.

Stop carrying on like a bitch and just pick will you!!

Not even slightly funny.

Maric
Chimp
Lids
Martin
Grimes
Morris

If Maric is out, we're stuffed. If Chimp is out for a long time, we're stuffed. If Morris is out then small forwards will run riot...= we're stuffed. Grimesy is obviously our best tall defender and we need Martin & Lids to be at their best if we are to play finals

McGuane
White
Derickx
Wood/Stephenson (once we rookie them)  :whistle
A.Edwards
Jackson

What we do with these guys at the end of the year will be most important for the club.  :shh

Maric
Cotchin
Vickery
Foley
Chaplin
Knights

These are the guys I feel need to have huge seasons for us to be contending finals. We still need Lids, Jack, Grigg etc playing at the same level or better as this year too. Its really about how the team plays as a whole rather than the individuals. Individuals can only rise when they are lifted on the support of those around them. :thumbsup

Maric, Chimp, Lids, Jack, Tuck and Rance- most important players to win a game

Morris, Vickery, Conca, Martin, Griffiths, Astbury-most important players that need to continue to improve if we are to reach the finals.

To win a premiership the bottom 6 will be the most important players. As it is only with good depth and recruiting that we will win a premiership

Thats what made them so lethal.  Anything in that period they smashed - no defence could get near them.  You could say they were bookends to a rich piece of Tigerland history.   ;D

reckon the top 6 from this yr have to have bloody good yrs again.  the top 6 are debateable maric cotchin deledio tuck morris riewoldt are probably it for me we dont have the depth or experience for any of these blokes to go backwards.
if we really want to make the 8 and challenge we desperately need
vickery to become a decent 2nd ruckman. we need both ellis and conca to improve a fair bit.
we will definately need signioficant contributions from chaplin knights and edwards.
we need helbig and vlastuin at the very least to have impact this yr mid field depth anyone. at the very lkeast we need these types in the team even in other roles.
we desperately need most likely griffiths to go to the next level as a forward ffs we cant have one decent tall forward week in week out. oh and foley to have a full injury free season close to his best.

finally we all expect improvement but have we done enough to catch the front runners and have we done more than those clubs who we are in the mix with. theres 18 teams and all they want to do is knock over the opposition.

This is harder than it looks.

Cotch ....... clearly our best player. How will the captaincy fit him?
Lids ........ our next best player. Showed he can play in the middle. Need that again along with goals from the midfield.
Maric ........ needs to back up this year and stay healthy.
Jack ......... our best forward. Still kicked 65 goals and won the Coleman in a "poor" year. He'll have a better prepared preseason than last summer.
Chaplin ....... his job is to shutdown the big gorillas that Rance can't.
Dusty ...... got a few gunning for him. A chance next year to shut up his critics.

Guys like Vickery, Conca and co. need to go to the next level next year while we need Grigg and Morris to have similar years to this season.
