I don't believe any genuine contender has ever gone into a season wth such a thin list. The loss of Mal and the trade ban has us in a precarious position.
Just doing a best 22 and for simplicity putting Laidler into Mal's GF spot our reserves in rough order of senior games played to cover injuries are -
Mitchell
B Jack
Derickx
Towers
Jones
After that it is completely untried and maybe unready players, albeit some with a bit of hype around them.
This is hugely risky as just a handful of injuries could completely derail our season. Maybe we might grab a couple of delisted experienced players as insurance?
