The big one was losing MDuncan. But we've turned him into Chris Masten who is about a 100mid when WCE are up an about, Tom Nicholls who is that young gun ruck that we desperately needed, and a couple of young fwds (also desperately needed). So feels like a loss seeing Duncan go but definitely benefits the team going forward

[Ricochet]

I'm an Eagles fan and even I wouldn't touch him/expect a 100 avg from him in SC #HackAttack

[Ricochet]

Sorry about that :-X

Ha all good mate. He's still young, we're happy to wait and hopefully the surgery is minor
His potential is what we're interested in

[Ricochet]

Wishing Jack Trengove all the best with his upcoming surgery. Jack will be having minor surgery to remove the screws in his foot from his previous surgery. So hopefully all goes well and he's back early in 2015 for the ND Tigers

Kerridge sets the pace as Crows kick off Walsh eraNDT look to dominate 2015 ;)

SAM KERRIDGE led Adelaide's first-to-fourth-year players on the opening day of the club's pre-season, impressing in a time trial and a series of interval runs in the city's parklands.

The 21-year-old's aerobic capacity saw him take over from injured skipper Nathan van Berlo as the club's chief run-with player in 2014 and that running power was obvious as he led 17 of the club's AFL-listed players on Wednesday morning.

We gave up a bit for Sam (xoxo Beijing), here's hoping he does better for you guys than he did for us.

[Ricochet]

So a ridiculous 26 trades made by NDT in this first trade period :o

Our fwd line was the major issue with having zero depth for most of 2014 and lacking any geniune premo material. We certainly addressed that by brining in Darling and ZClarke who both have the ability to be premo fwds. We also brought in some young potential in Griffiths, Apeness, O'Brien and Tunbridge. Adding to the depth were basement value fwds like White and JGrant who should only increase in value next year.

Current fwd line:
ZClarke, Darling, Griffiths, JWhite
(KStevens, JGrant, Apeness, LMcCarthy, BJohnson, Sumner, TO'Brien, Tunbridge)

The next major issue was our ruckline. We literally had Hampson at R1 for most of the year. We addressed that by bringing in GC young guns Nicholls and Gorringe; Freo youngsters ZClarke, Hannath and Apeness; and Carlton backup ruckman Warnock. We tried to shift Warnock off given our depth now but happy to keep for now.

Ruck Stocks:
ZClarke, RWarnock, Nicholls, Gorringe, Nankervis, Hannath, Apeness
