Well Jim, truth be told, if he couldn't crack a game at CFC not sure who else would look.

Always thought Dylan might become that line breaker/long goal kicker that he did hint at....but I guess the powers that be knows best....

Dylan is a nice kid but just couldnt develop his body any bigger and his decision making/skills didnt make up for his lack of strength.
Had trouble tackling the modern day player and was a liability under pressure IMO..
Dont see any club taking him other than a state league team....

You'd expect that is the plan given the recruitment of the Mullett.

The key is to limit the number of cheap turnovers - that's what kills any team...

Interesting to see that some of the media's AFL experts are claiming the key to a CheatsFC 2018 resurgence will be defense over attack.

We spent a lot of time debating the merits of BB's defense first game plan, the same scribes that are calling for CheatSFC to change focus lambasted Carlton for having a game plan that lacked an avenue to goal.

It seems no matter what you do, you will be judged by the media experts to be exactly wrong!

I try not to set 'expectations' as they're rarely met. But I will be happy in 2018 if the following occurs:

- One of our key forwards kicks 50+ goals
- One of our small forwards kicks 35+ goals
- We have at least 2 AA reps
- Weitering bounces back from his 2nd Year Blues
- Samo avoids 2nd Year Blues
- We win at least 9 games
- Liam Jones backs up his 2017 finish to the season (if he was one of the AA reps I'd be ecstatic)
- Our green shoots start to sprout

I don't expect us to make finals, but I'd like us to look threatening. If by the end of the season, teams are really starting to fear us again, I'll be very happy.

Hopefully we win 8/9 games and become a side that other teams dread lining up against.

That sounds like a team that will easily play finals.
