Such a disappointing end to what was a fantastic season.
Outstandingly coached from Simpson last season, considering what we lost at the start of the year, to get where we did, only excitement awaits and hopefully go 1 better. I'd expect Simpson will slightly tinker with the defensive set up, having the luxury of his 2 main backman returning. We got tested for depth last season and they all stood up, so hopefully our results won't vary if we lose a couple due to injury throughout the year, which makes the good teams great.
Much Harder draw this season, but I wouldn't expect to drop to many games at home. Anything outside the 4 I'd be disappointed.
Looking forward to see the progress of Liam Duggan and Tom Lamb, along with Elliot Yeo going to another level and to see how many goals JK can kick if he stays injury free and where they play Jeremy McGovern, who I think is an absolute star in the making, hard to believe he has only played 33 games.
Got to feel for a young lad called Damien Cavka, who we drafted last season, before a foot injury sidelined him for last season, and now been forced to retire at 19. Shattering for anyone.
My Starting line up at Full Strength
B: Sheppard, MacKenzie, Hurn
HB-Schofield , Brown, Wellingham
C- Jetta, Priddis, Gaff
HF- Lecras, Darling, Yeo
F- Cripps, Kennedy. McGovern
Naitanui, Shuey, Redden
Masten,Sheed,Duggan,Lycett

I reckon Mitch Brown is immensely overrated and believe his absence last year (unfortunate though it was for him) freed the team up and gave vent to the squad's vast flexibility - with good success. So many Eagles fans get themselves into a frenzy about McGovern going into the forward line but he's a miles better defender than Brown and should stay back.
Also I'd have Mark Hutchings ahead of either Sheed or Duggan on your bench.

Cheers, I dont reckon Redden is in front of those 4. Injuries will dictate whether he gets a crack Rd 1 or not and Lewis Jetta would want to be putting in a good preseason to play Rd 1.

Another bad blow for Mitch. Just can't get a run at it.
Pre season has been under whelming, A lot of niggles and under done guys coming into round 1 (Shuey, Welly, Redden, Jetta and a couple of others)
Be interesting to see how we start

Yeah, been very cautious with a lot of players.
Masten with a broken ankle will miss the first 4-5 games aswell.
The start of the season is really challenging for us, playing some tough sides early.

Reckon they have to finish top 2 as well, not just top 4, to have a crack at the flag.
