I am happy that they contemptly dismiss our team, that normally turns around and bites our critics. I see this season as a chance for our young players to grow and the expectations are that we can at least repeat last seasons result.
We have weaknesses, we need to tighten our ruck defence because that killed us at the back end of last season. I see us scoring plenty of points.
I am not too worried about our 5/8, I think both Croker and Hastings will cover it adequately, I think our bigger weakness is the front row.
We need to win the majority of games at home. For the last few years, too many home defeats.
There is plenty to look forward to!!
Which is why when I saw the “ Tolman to be unloaded “ info that I thought he might be an option to stiffen up the front , no superstar but experienced!
