    I think there are two teams in it.

    Us and Melbourne.

    We need to hit our straps soon because you need to be up there to win it.

    Look at the Eagles 2018.

    Tigers would've smashed them.

    Same as GWS the next year.

    If you're in the top 4 no matter how you get there (the prelims) you have a good chance.

    Mate that's exactly how I read it but you seemed to create a couple of pages of content through the confusion so good work!

    And yet for all of those priorities the Dogs’ clear intent is to bring in another key back and key forward.

    The Rory Lobb ruck-forward type would be perfect to compliment the Dogs given Josh Bruce is returning but is 30 next week and coming off an ACL tear.

    A Griffin Logue-Darcy Gardiner type stopper would be perfect for the back six.

    The Dogs have some key position backs across the league they believe they could turn into key forwards if they could acquire them but it’s not apparent exactly who those players are.

    Note that he is using Lobb and Logue as examples of the player types we might be looking for, not actually linking us with them.

    I think Ralph's assumption is Bruce's age and coming off a knee injury.

    You would hope with another pre season JUH will be a staple in the forward line next year so would think a forward/ruck is the position we need to fill rather than a pure KF.

    A key back is another requirement…. But happy for this one to be a developing type.

    HUN saying North will take Dawson at pick 2, Carlton may take Sam Durdin (former North) at their pick to bolster their KPDs. Either way he's not going to end up at the kennel.

    Is Dawson the one who Jamarra kicked 6 on this week?

    If we picked up Lobb and Logue this off season, we would be a lock for top 4 next year.

    Pretty much cleans up our major structural deficiencies, and we still have Marra and Darcy developing. I’d also pick up the best available key defender with our first pick in the draft and go hard on genuine forward talent of all sizes.
    Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

    I'd be really eager to bring in a 188-192cm mid sized and genuine forward if possible. A too big for smalls and too quick/ crafty for talls type.
