Just having a look through our list, and since most of us as supporters have pushed aside this season as "not our year," there's no better time to look at where we are going. What do you think our 2015 side will look like? and where do you think it's going from there? I have included the ages of the players in mine just so to get a better look at where players may be in their development.

B: WILSON (AGE: 23) MCKENZIE (AGE: 27) HURN (AGE: 27)
HB: WATERS (AGE: 29) BRENNAN (AGE: 25) MCGINNITY (AGE: 26)
C: WELLINGHAM (AGE: 27) PRIDDIS (AGE: 30) GAFF (AGE: 23)
HF: DICK (AGE: 27) KENNEDY (AGE: 28) HILL (AGE: 26)
F: LECRAS (AGE: 29) SINCLAIR (AGE: 26) DARLING (AGE: 23)
FOL: NIC NAT (AGE: 25) SHUEY (AGE: 25) MASTEN (AGE:26)
INT: HUTCHINGS (AGE: 24) DALZIELL (AGE: 28) SELWOOD (AGE: 25) MCGOVERN (AGE 23)
EMG: NEWMAN (AGE: 22)

RETIRED:
COX
EMBLEY
KERR
A SELWOOD

TRADED:
BROWN
BUTLER (Possibly in search of a pro longed career. Rosa is another chance too)

SUMMARY:
Priddis, Waters, Lecras almost at the end of it. Priddis is more of an inside player anyway so he should still be playing good footy. Waters injuries may have taken a toll by 29, so let's see what happens there and Lecras should still be playing good footy. With Mckenzie and Hurn at 27 we will need to see some significant development with some younger defenders coming through because by 2017 Waters, Mckenzie and Hurn will be gone or nearing the end. It's amazing to think Darling will still only be 23 (unbelievable even) and could potentially be one of the games biggest stars by that point. Our midfield looks great and should be at the peak of its development. Nic Nat, Shuey, Masten all at 25-26 years of age, with Gaff and Hutchings at 23 and 24. Dalziell will be 28, and with several years of footy under his belt should be playing reasonably. Don't know where Lycett fits in, it's really a fight between Sinclair and him to see who gets that number 2 ruckman spot.

Actually pretty happy with the side. Woosha won't be in charge of course, so I think we could still give it a shake up in 2015.

See above. Wheres scooter! Big oversight. Dalziell to bench, Sheppard out, scooter on ground.

unless shep starts showing some consistency, it's him v dalziell, and for me right now dazzle wants it more

In dreamland id like to think garlett with his head screwed on is in there somewhere lighting up the vast expanses of subiaco but we'll have to see about that.

I read the centre line and presumed we were tanking ....
 
i've never seen one of these threads end up being even remotely accurate......

it's hardly a stretch though. basically just our 22 with a couple of retirements replaced by younger players.
 
B: Waters - Mackenzie - Bennell
HB: Hurn - Brown/McInnes - Waterman
C: Rosa - Priddis - Masten
HF: LeCras - Kennedy - Wellingham
F: Newman - Darling - Lycett

R: Naitanui - Selwood - Shuey

I/C: Sheppard - Gaff - Schofield - McGinnity

McGovern misses out due to being behind Kennedy and Darling in the KPF pecking order, and is insufficient as a second ruck. Could request a trade.
 
Never do a thread with a future team because you don't take future draft picks and trades and free agents into account, I bet if Essendon posters last year were doing their team for 2014 they wouldn't have have Goddard in it

Just like this time last year no one would have thought we would have Wellingham

Swift's return will bring about the footballing apocalypse, his skills are too much for this world... hence, he retired to prevent the destruction of us all! How noble!
 
I have been told many times by a friend of mine that 2014 will be "the year of the Tiger" so we will have to wait till 2015 for our shot.
