I think talent wise we are weaker this year compared to last. We lost quite a few players to other clubs.
Our 'big recruits' in Duursma and Moody are both on an extended bench. Pound and Sherar are also on the bench who would be top 10 picked usually. Few other girls on there would seem stiff to miss out too.
Peterson was trying to get out of defence last year, but mass exodus of tall talent there means she's shuttled back there. How well that backline works is the key to our year.
Our mids are more than capable.
Our forwards are a bit of a mixed back, but good enough to get the job done.
Hopefully Bree Moody can successfully balance kicking goals at FF and dominating the ruck.
Vescio moving out of the forwardline is supposed to be a permanent move.....but we've heard that once before, so we'll see how that goes.
Ultimately, we seem to be playing as a team, even our talent doesn't quite stack up compared to others.
I predict we'll finish outside the 8, but shouldn't be bottom 4, unless injuries hit.
But the womens game is so hard to predict with such short seasons and uneven fixturing.
