Really like the look of Valente. He should be a nice Neale replacement in a few years.
Also like the mature agers we've picked up. Could hopefully have an immediate impact

It would appear that Fremantle have selected very wisely in the draft. A good selection of players who can play in more than one position.I am guessing that more than one of our new recruits will have his hand up for Neales position come round one.
As you say, with the softer draw, we could scare a few next season.
We have traded in well also.Getting Lobb and Hogan will make life easier for the likes of Taberner and McCarthy.Remembering that McCArthy was the third forward at GWS.He will have a load of pressure taken off him now.It is now up to him to perform and show us why we recruited him.
Also going to be a test for Matera as well.His performance last season was well short of what was expected.
I look forward to the start of 2019.
