With our window for oppotunity lasting MAXIMUM untill next year the oppotunity for games and unveiling of some debutants.
What has been lacking in our team IMO has been
-key defender, for two reasons, able to release leo barry into an attacking role, however with his age and form he will be slowly losing his pace strength and with the work load placed upon him in the last five years i would not be suprised if he is the first of the "older" brigade to go. IMO we lose 1-2 games a year directly to the reason that we dont have a gorilla defender.
-quarter back, someone to really direct play, we have this in adam goodes however a nick dal santo who can get foward kick a goal and has exquiste skills, i think melcho can be moulded into this as we have many HBF waiting for their chance. eg Laidlaw, Dempster, even Barlow.
-small foward, really an injection of speed and harashment into the foward fifty. as we have seen with lovett, davey's some speed and tackling ability inside the foward fifty can create so many oppotunities. IMO we have lacked a small crumbing foward ever since we stopped Schnieds playing permenantely there in 2003.
