Good question.I agree, but we had a blessed run with injuries in ‘22.
An important question is therefore which depth players are genuine AFL standard - as the odds are we’ll need them if we have a “normal” run with injury.
I think the following would be OK.
Ladhams
McLean
Wicks
Amartey???
Campbell
Cunningham
Melican
Gould???
Francis???
Sheldrick???
Confident that those with the ??? would not disgrace themselves.
We have enough flexibility to utilize these guys.
Roberts is on the borderline IMO but probably not as a mid.
That would be 33, which should be enough, with the mids the Achilles heel, though we could give someone else a game to cover a short term injury.
