The Cats will win their fair share at home but will the ageing legs of Dangerfield, Selwood, Taylor, Ablett, Steven, Hawkins and Jenkins have the run to carry them deep into finals? 16-6 last year, will they again be a top 4 candidate?
St Kilda have been on a spending spree and Hill, Jones, Butler, Howard and Ryder immediately make them a better side. Ratten taking the reigns on his own will be important, can they go from 9 wins to 12 or 13 and challenge for the 8?
Reckon Melbourne are in a similar boat. They had a better list than their finishing position last season suggested, but have they found that avenue to goal yet? Goodwin needs to go real close to making finals you'd think.
Goodwin is contracted until the end of 2022 after Melbourne jumped and gave him a 3 year extension in March 2019.
