NEW FACES
Off-season acquisitions Levi Greenwood, Travis Varcoe and Jack Crisp all played this week’s intra-club and are scheduled to feature, as is No.5 draft pick Jordan De Goey who has impressed. American college basketballer Mason Cox has a solid pre-season behind him and is in contention.
STRATEGY
After last year, staying healthy would be a good place to start. Had a whopping 37 players available to play before its intra-club game and only four players in rehab. Last seasons injury crisis seems long forgotten, with Scharenberg and Macaffer the only long-term absentees. “We’re in very good condition at the moment,” football manager Neil Balme said.
NOT YET
Brent Macaffer and Matt Scharenberg are no chance to play as they continue their recovery from knee reconstructions, while Clinton Young (hamstring) is still some way off. Ben Reid (hamstring), Paul Seedsman (hip), Jarrad Witts (shoulder) and Darcy Moore (toe) should be ready to go before the end of the pre-season comp.
