Million dollar question isn't it!!
3 years is a really small time frame, given the situation we a currently in.
3 years time Deledio, Cotchin, Foley, Tambling & Martin (+ draft picks/Collins) will have to be as good as the Geelong/St Kilda midfield. With some serious work i could see them getting close to that, maybe. But at least two of these have to become A+ midfielders, Ablett/Judd types i'm talking.
We could have a premiership forward line in Astbury, Griffiths, Reiwoldt, Taylor, Morton & another small. Though Griffiths & Astbury would be where Tippett is atm so probably not ready yet but getting there.
We need some solid rucks...
We need an A+ backman, in the mould of Scarlett or Lake, that has the ability to both nulify his opposition and hurt him the other way. Or at least a good stopper such as Presti (Thursfield), combined with the rebounding sweeper of the likes of Hodge/Goddard (If we gain depth in the midfield Lids would be perfect for this position).
I mean it's hard to believe that with 3 years under the belt of the current draftees + that of subsequent drafts that we couldnt at least be making the finals... surely.
but without significant improvement we will be in world of trouble.
