I still have a huge concern.
We look at the forward performance last week and say...."yep, it was poor but wait until we get our full midfield back and it will be a different story."
But really, even fully fit, that's not a significantly better mid-field than we played for most of last year and that did little for our forward performance.
Our top goalkickers last year were
1 Andrejs Everitt 31
2 Levi Casboult 24
3 Tom Bell 17
4 Lachlan Henderson 16
5 Dennis Armfield 13
5 Troy Menzel 13
7 Andrew Walker 12
8 Zach Tuohy 9
8 Matthew Kreuzer 9
10 Marc Murphy 7
10 Liam Jones 7
Bell, Henderson and Menzel are gone....There's going to have to be a massive step up by more than one forward to make a significant difference to our scoring power.
