I think that the Swans are the most likely side to be able to challenge Brisbane this year. The Dogs defensive set up leaves a lot to be desired (both in personnel and system) and Gold Coast are just too raw a group (I think they could get hot at the right time but more likely think 2027 is when it opens up for them).
If Sydney can get the following side on the park for the back end of the year, it's got a great combination of hardness and class:
FF: H.McLean - C.Curnow - M.Rosas Jnr
HF: T.Papley - L.McDonald - I.Heeney
C: E.Gulden - Ch.Warner - J.McInerney
R: C.Mills - B.Grundy - A.Sheldrick
HB: N.Blakey - T.McCartin - M.Roberts
FB: J.Jordon - L.Melican - D.Rampe
I/C: J.Rowbottom - B.Campbell - J.Serong - J.Dattoli - R.Bice
And that's with youngsters I feel are very talented waiting in the wings (Phillipou, Hetherton, Kyle, King, Chamerlain and Green are all kids who I think can make the grade).
It's a very good squad.
