It's not brilliant but it's solid enough.

As with most teams, a lot will depend on how well the mids and half backs can deliver the ball into the 50, both quickly, and accurately.


With that forward line I can't see how a bomb it long to the hot spot game plan is going to work, be fascinating to see how they move the ball forward of centre this year. All of the above are good lead up forwards. I would have thought Lord at 197cm is your long deep target if you do need to bail out in slow play or they don't change the game plan.


That’s how Jack won 10 flags …

Watched the highlights of the '93 prelim on the weekend. Jars would still have choked when it mattered in front of goal, Jack or no Jack.

And no-one was going to get near Longy in the second half, poor old Bones McDermott was literally grabbing at shadows :lol:
