Heidelberg looking in shape. Seem to have recruited fairly well. Will they play finals?

It is just a hunch but i think the doggies have more to come

They need a hell of a lot more if they want to be anywhere near the top 5

I imagine the points will be a big issue for the doggies

As for a lot other clubs in all div

 

[Spyforce]

I know that but early late last year dubai man said to stay tuned in Im still tune in but nothing has happened. Except for players leaving

Starcevich, Le Fanu, Morris, McKenzie (North Melb), C.Brown on Kangas Ressie list likely both to play most of season depending on injuries at AFL/VFL level, Kett, Daw, Howden Crhak will play senior footy. Returning from injury Mapleson, McKay & Parkinson.
Not big names there but players who will capably replace those who have left & with more youth coming through with improvement from McLeod, Perichon, & Hirt who have all played at senior level.
If the club consolidates & remains in Div 1 over next few seasons will hold its own & with the Bundoora Park alliance taking shape more players to come through in years to come.

Probably will drop a few pegs down the list but the win/loss ratio between 4th & 9th will be little in it. Could easily see bottom club winning 5 games similar to Eltham in 2017.

A lot of points there.

 

[Kick It Billy]

A lot of points there.

Not the only club with points issues. Be interested to see how they fit them in mostly 1 point players have left who generally have provided good service to the club - Gilbert, Florence, Bramich (veterans) & to a lesser extent Green. Also a few worth a few points Fitzpatrick & assume Biggs out with injury & Harris retired.
I think the question is of those gone how many were in the best 22 & there are a few outside of that so as Spyforce mentions plenty of ins that can replace their best 22 departures.
I think they miss the 5 though & if injuries knock them around could be a shaky year for Doggies but if they survive allows them to consolidate after surprising many with their rise back to Div 1.

Quality of comp is most games will be even dependant on availability of players & wins at home for Hursty, W'sea & North will be vital.

I reckon 10-12 best 22 are gone in Biggs, Harris, I guess Boomer (restricted games) green, baddelly-Kelly, Florance, Gilbert, Bramich, Fitzpatrick, Jones, Shelley,
Could be plenty of opportunity for young blokes

Quality of blokes leaving ways out the blokes coming in. Also depth if they can injuries could be a battle to stay up Near the top half

starcevitch Morris Len fanu very good footballers combined with the group of very promising youngsters the doggies will be ok

 

[TheGreatBambino]

Where’s Biggs playing at this year?

 

[nosecondprize]

starcevitch Morris Len fanu very good footballers combined with the group of very promising youngsters the doggies will be ok

Morris was a good footballer. Has he even been playing? If so where? Who is there young players coming through? Because there 19s and reserves are pretty bad

That’s a lot of what ifs their all injury plagued them

 

[nosecondprize]

I see Borough have finally announced Nathan Hrovat. Great get, but not sure he will play 3 games to qualify?

 

[kickthething]

Not seeing much about the Bulls this pre season, where are they at? They look like they are going for a lot of youth?

Looks like they have Picked up some quality and some good young kids. I think they will be around that 4-7. I’d reckon they would be aiming for 2021 and beyond to push for a flag

Injuries ruined the Bulls last year, they should be there abouts.
