A
ny players in the draft that are good contested ball winners that we could pick ?Probably the best we could have done considering the year we’ve had and state of our current list (mind you i agree with Hannebery our players are better than we showed this year).
Our biggest issues this year are:
1. Winning contested ball.. that’s why I was hoping we could get a contested beast like Brad Crouch in, not to be.. hopefully Hannebery and others with the right coaching can help us winning more contested ball. Another reason we need to draft more ball winning mids.. not talls or forwards/half forwards that maybe able to play midfield in the future.. We’ve gone down that road far too many times without much to show for it..
2. Coaching/game plan
Our setup at clearance, kick in, transition and forward play was diabolical all year bar the a couple of game against GWS, Demons.. With Ratten, Lade on board, this should improve out of sight.
3. Leadership.. let’s be honest, Riewoldt and Montagna were big loses. Geary is not a good enough player let alone a good leader.. Hopefully Hannebury and others can stand up.
