Pick 14 actually black but still better than 18!
The continued improvement of players such as Vickery, Rance, Martin, Cotchin and Nahas plus the improvement of many who didn't play in this game including Grimes and Batchelor. We have also seem glimpses of potential talent from Griffiths, Astbury, Conca, Helbig. Add the injection of depth and talent with the introduction of Houli (in particular), Grigg and Miller and we have clearly improved on last year with still plenty of probable development left in the majority of the list.
Very exciting really. Next year we will improve again with a more settled back 6, greater size, experience and depth in the middle, more time for our forwards to understand how to play cohesively and a ruckman who can compete 
.
I think we'll finally see finals action next year 
Pick 14 is it ? Damn ! Media were saying pick 12 ? Oh well it's better than 18. Let's hope we use it wisely.
Grimes is the one I'm really looking forward to seeing again next year. He's my pick of all our kids to end up the best player. Hope his hammies aren't made of paper though ?
