I was very disappointed when he did his knee last year. A good replacement for Simmo when he hangs 'em up. Has a nice kick, and finds a way to get through traffic with a bit of dash. Can't wait to see him back, and I think the only question will be his match fitness and confidence. Our back half looks very nice for the next several years. Hopefully that allows one or two to move towards the wing. Thinking of Williamson and maybe Doc. Having such a strong defensive unit with attacking flair in a way helps our midfield. Teams don't usually want to take too much class and run out of their back half to bolster the midfield, but we have the luxury of quite a few to choose from. One more blue chip mid (Kelly I'm hoping), and a flanker moving to the wing, and keep Gibbs, and suddenly our midfield starts looking strong too. Then it's just the fwd line, which TBH is still looking no better than previously, and is still putting a lot of hope on McKay. Maybe Charlie Boy will turn out so good he's a gun centre half fwd, and SOJ a good reliable third tall, Wright released from so much midfield time he can have a regular impact fwd, and Pickett living up to his potential as a defensive fwd and goal sneak. Then it's just a full fwd we need, and maybe McKay will do a good enough job in that role. Based on that hopeful assessment, I think we're closer to having all the pieces than we dare to dream.
