Our top 4 quality players

Re: Our top 4 quality players

Thats exactly what it looks like DR - its been a horrible finish to the year, and a very disappointing year overall - it now seems very clear that the players, coaches and most of our supporters got carried away with where we are at, at the end of last year.

BUT I do think we need to keep it in perspective, although its easier not to, and most of us our gutted with our year.

We still have a lot of emerging talent with huge upside (Cooney, Ray, Griffen, Higgins) and have introduced three youngsters (Everitt, Williams and Harbrow) who all could be amazing players. If you add to them to West, Cross, Gilbee, Morris, Murphy, Harris and Hargrave we still have plenty to work with. We have enough young players who could develop into super AFL players but we need to load up again in the draft, and not look for quick fixes.

Of the names in that paragraph, the thing that concerns me are that the only KP prospects in that group are Harris, Williams, and possibly Everitt.

This is an area which we may need to address both in trade week and the draft, to provide for next year as well as the next 5 years.
