Positives: McGovern and Lycett. Nic Nat getting through un-injured. Our gameplan/style has changed and improved dramatically. Negatives: Midfield depth, didn't beat a top 8 side.
Trade- Seriously need 1-2 quality Mids to help out Priddis and Shuey. Having a look at our list, the only one with any sort of value that we haven't recently resigned is Mitch Brown. Plenty of sides under us who need a big key defender. He's still young, and with Mcgovern standing up, I would be prepared to trade for a top round pick or quality young mid.
Move Yeo to the midfield and target 1/2 quality mids. Midfield skill and speed are essential for us to take the next step and as a good a year as Priddis had he is not the answer being the number one midfielder.
Yeo eventually will move in there once he gets a few more games under his belt. We desperately need some Mids who can kick,. Priddis is excellent, but he ends up on the final possession way to often. Shuey I thought really stood up in the last 8 rounds and should be taking the number 1 mid spot next year.

Also good to see Beau Waters collect the Jim Stynes award for his community work.
Yeah huge effort by Beau and the WCE- over $1m raised for the WA cancer council? Brilliant stuff and very deserved winner.
