Positives for returning players:
Lamb looks like he has had a decent preseason - tank seems bigger and previously questionable pace is no longer an embarrassment - he just needs to stop dropping chest marks.
Levi was effective in the ruck - so much fitter and trimmer than previous years
McKay used his body in the ruck contests and chased with intent - showed more than he did at any time in the VFL last year.
Pickett is now chasing almost as hard as he runs when he has the ball.
Fisher = stronger, fitter, faster and seems likely to have more impact on a game
Cuningham - shows he can tackle effectively
Byrne - he is playing
Simpson doesn't seem to have lost any more pace - might have actually recovered a little bit
