The Next Victorian Premiers! part2

November 15th 2006 09:40
Some may believe that the team that has one of the best chances of being the next victorian premiers in the 2007 and probably '08 is Melbourne.
After starting the 2006 season so poorly with losing the first 3 games of the season in a row the dees fought back hard to make the finals and they still managed to make the semi-finals only to lose to Freamantle. But all though they did make half the way to the grand final they still were a fair way off and they need to find a few more good quality players to carry them that extra step ferther, maybe in this years draft they can pick a good talent to take them their.

Anyway Melbourne are still looking like a pretty good team at the moment, with players like youngsters Rivers and Carroll as well as veteren Holland setting up the defence but sooner or later they will need to find a replacement for Holland and they probably should start looking now so a tall Key defender would be a good option in this years draft. But the great form that ernt James McDonald All Australian selection should and for all Melbourne fans hope it can continue in the future at both half back and in the midfeild and also if Whelan can go a hole season without an injury he could stop just about every small forward in the comp.
Their midfeild is also looking very good with players like Bruce in good form is a very dangerous and along with youngster Brock McLean (Who still has room for loads more improvement) he can be pretty dangerous too and will be in the future. If they can also get Johnstone back into some great form he can be very handy player too. Ruckmen White still needs a good back up to help him out so he can play more closer to goal and in defence (if needed) instead of him taking the ruck all the time and getting tired to quickly. And along with hardmen Moloney and Pickett in that midfeild t's one hell of a midfeild.

Their forward line is probably their most important part of the team lead by captain David Neitze at FF and the new improved Brad Miller aswell as Davey, Robertson and Jamar they are expeireinced and young so they tonns of room to improve.
So look out everyone Melbourne are just getting started.
