how will it shape up next season?

no obvious replacements for Goddard or Gram

I'm only asking as I think Gilbert could be really good value next season.

I'm thinking Geary might up his average. Wasn't that terrible this season.

Nathan Wright might get a chance early...

I was really surprised that they didn't go for a key defender with their two consecutive picks in the 20s, especially with Clurey available.  May come back to hurt them in the next few years

Geary and Gilbert could step up IMO..?

How about Dempster as well, he hardly handball's, but he hardly tackles. If his tackles go up during the pre-season it'll be interesting who to pick from Gilbert, Geary & Dempster. One of these 3 are in. Not sure who yet.

They did recruit Roberton as a free agent.

Wright will play from round 1.

Wright is the gram replacement. Looks like we could be playing sipposs in the Goddard role. Picked up White as the extra fwd.
And roberton will play full back with blake as well.

Should be alright for 1-2 years

Roberton isn't a full back BS. He is only 191cm, he is a rebounding defender...

My bad CF. I guess Blakey will do for now :P coming off a career best season (2 Brownlow votes)
