Feel very positive. We have got plenty of games into players and developing a style that will win us more than lose in the longer term.
Our back line is stabilising well, with a set of roles emerging that shows the team is able to stick to a structure.
We have an emerging spine of Jones or silvagni, weitering, curnow. McKay has plenty of potential and just a shame he is unlikely to get some more experience this year.
Weitering will be fine. We want tough, resiliant players to be our leaders. Provided he works through the challenge, this year is an excellent development for him. He is only 19.
So we need midfielders. Great, as midfielders are more available to draft and trade. The middle is also a team effort more, making the return on coaching and development greater.
Given the youth, we have done OK this year. The many close games show we are maintaining shape and concentration. The possession heavy defensive style is fine by me. That's what wins over a long season and in finals. Expect scoring to increase next year as the back line works and the midfield gets a bit more depth.
