Yep plenty of time for Lewie.
I'm actually super excited to see Bailey Smith. I know everyone else is too being an early draft pick. There I was a lot of hype around this kid last year and I want to see why. I think we a one gun midfielder short and I'm hoping Bailey will be that gun.
Another is Tim English. We are desperate for an A grade ruckman IMO. We need to be competitive in all areas of ground including the ruck. Tim has been the talk of the preseason so let's hope he can turn preseason form into actual form. I'd love to see his contested mark game improve especially. Roughy was a decent mark around the ground that we'll miss so we need Tim to provide the get out of trouble mark.
They've done studies you know, 60% of the time, it works every time!

His body looks much stronger in the arms,and much leaner through the body. He looks ready to have strength in the contest, but more mobility. It might sound strange, but if he can lock down a spot with Cordy, we can play Naughton or Young forward too if we wanted. There's no Hamling, no Adams, no Collins, no Morris. This is make or break for him, and I'm hoping it's a 'make'.
Absolutely cracking bloke too. I have optics on Bailey Williams. Has all the attributes, tallish, quickish, finds the footy and kicks goals. Could be a top 5 B&F smokey.
But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

I am looking forward to seeing Ed Richards play this year. A bit quiet in the practice matches but had a terrific first year. I want to see if he builds on that.

Beat me to it B4l, I am really excited about Ed and think he will have a cracking season.
But the Bonts is who I am most excited about, I think will find another gear this season.
Our younger brigade are maturing and becoming bigger bodied so he should have more back up and support.

Re: Who's on your radar?
Gowers and Dickson for mine. We have missed Tory badly these last two years. Gowers is a hard at it type who can take a good grab. He's capable of 40 plus goals if he kicks straight.
