I would think Boyd will play as well as Pittonett and while Weitering, Silvagni and Hollands the older won't be available to play, this means someone additionally will miss selection but I am unsure as to who that will be. I also think Cuningham and Cincotta will also be unlucky to miss out.

Can we dominate the home and away season?
Apart from home finals and double chances, a dominant home and away season provides an opportunity to manage critical players.

My prediction.... Start poorly, come good too late, miss finals. Harry to kick poorly again. Another frustrating, unfulfilling season. Too much hype not enough substance.

The start of the season will be a great test of our depth, as much as we would like wins what I think will be more important is how we go about games win or lose. To me that is going to be the tell.
The question being, "Did the players mean what they said midway through last season?"
Win or lose, will they have each others back, will they work for each other and sacrifice for each other?

I tend to agree.
I’m fearful that a poor start will see the feral “fans” start baying for coaching blood again

Weitering is our most important player and there is no backup or protege being developed to support him. The failure to attend to this will become all too apparent in the early rounds.

Young is his protege and Nige is his backup.
Of course they’re not up to Weitering’s class but, if they were, they’d be demanding his spot or a trade for better opportunities.

I'm more worried about winning the midfield battle. Their mids got the better of us in both games last year and if they do again we won't win.
