We've managed to tick 1 of 3 boxes in that our defence looks set to roll for a while, but we need to add to our midfield and forward line. Melbourne are set to emerge, they've got a good young backline with the McDonald brothers et al, Hogan and Weiderman give them some good young forward targets, their midfield is exciting and they have the best ruckman in the game.
On paper we have some promise, some young guys that we're hoping come good. Melbourne now have some proven performers and are about to explode.
Dees backline is their biggest issue. And they probably lack that bit of extra pace class around the wings / flanks.
But they've had a 12 year rebuild so they should be ahead of someone. And definitely not getting spanked by us like they did late last year.
