How will Western Bulldogs fare wearing tag of 2024's most intriguing side?

I agree with the opening sentence that we are (one of) the most intriguing of sides of 2024. Our sluggish start and poor finish book ended a frustrating and underachieving season. We have the talent on the list but didn't get that out of them but on the positive side with new coaches and players we have brought in plus the return to training at an elite facility will give the club, coaches and playing list the best chance for success.

I'm genuinely positive about what this team is capable of achieving. We have a nice crop of youngsters and some top end experienced players. We have to deliver in 2024 so the motivation for everyone at the club should be high.

You were as close as anyone to the seemingly great standard of our pre-season training last year. Was their anything that stood out in your mind to explain the poor performance in the first two games?

The constant flow of players into the rehab group was very noticeable plus Lobb getting injured just before the season started took him a long time to catch-up and threw the balance out.

Judging from your earlier note about the players really appreciating the surface Whitten Oval, there is hope for less injuries.

Aside from tactically getting it completely wrong?

I don't think round 1 and 2 was a pre-season hangover, it really was being victims of a successful deployment of the 4 talls inside 50 against north in the pre-season game. There were signs in the pre-season game of things not being right that we chose to ignore and take into rounds 1 and 2.

Other than deploying 4 talls in the front half what other issues were uncovered?
