Whilst I'm devastated at our continuing run of injuries this could also be seen as an opportunity for some to play for their careers, McCarthy, Dixon, Blakely, Matera, Colyer, North, Crowden, Banfield and Duman all have not been automatic selections this year, all have ability and they could also seize the opportunity. They will also see competition from Frederick, Henry, Valente, Meek, Carter and Thomas who have all shown a bit in the ressies. We were never really expected to challenge for a finals berth by most pundits but there could also be exciting times ahead this year with our current crop of youngsters.
