If Dixon gets injured the forward line looks a little sparse

Not sure I agree with that. Defensively we were one of the best teams in the comp last year, with Essendon and Adelaide the only teams to really get a hold of us all year. Jonas in the AA 40, Clurey cemented his spot at FB and Howard showed all the signs of becoming a 10 year CHB.
Midfield looked decidedly one paced last year, so when teams got a hold of us in the contested stakes, it was game over. Rockliff will add forward versatility to allow Gray and Wingard more time through the midfield alongside Wines, Ebert and SPP, as well as Polec, Amon and Motlop adding speed on the wings, making our midfield more multidimensional.
I will back Watts to start at CHF. Should be competing with Westhoff for a spot.
As for Marshall, it will depend on whether Ken wants to play a 3 tall forward line. Considering what the past 2 premiership teams have won flags with, Dixon and Watts/Westhoff will be all we should start with, IMO.

That's what they've been doing over the last 10 years. Teal has turned into royal blue. Only a matter of time until it goes altogether. Eddie McGuire is the only person standing in their way.

Cripps, a former St Kilda player and assistant coach, was among the candidates for a senior role in St Kilda’s football department, which could be revamped following the exit from the Saints of incoming Western Bulldogs chief executive Ameet Bains.
The Saints will hire someone to replace Bains — who was chief operating officer and was involved in football and commercial operations — but club sources said they had not decided whether they would create a new position as head of football or appoint someone to a different football role in another structure.
If a senior football department head is appointed, he would sit above St Kilda football manager Jamie Cox.
Recruiting manager Tony Elshaug is contracted for next year and will remain in that role, while three of his recruiting staff also are contracted for 2018.
Wayne Hughes, the former recruiting boss at Carlton and a member of St Kilda’s recruitment team, has been offered a part time role.
Cripps is said to be happy at Port, which showed faith in the former Saint and were supportive of him after he suffered a heart attack in 2015.

They've never worn royal blue, it's turquoise. Suppose to be teal though.

Or in other words, was told he would not get the job
