I give SOS and his crew a big

Me too.
Fasolo > Lamb ? Fasolo at his best is better than Lamb at his best. Consistency will be the issue.
O’Dwyer< Rowe (atm) (O’Dwyer was a project pick and we won’t see him any time soon. Newman or McReadie might get this spot in the backline unless we go small.)
Walsh > Graham (direct swap mid for mid)
Stocker > Kerridge (As above. The MC must believe we are going to improve a lot from 18th to have made this trade)
McGovern > Wright (Wright was a big loss for us at 2 goals a game but McGovern will cover him)
Owies < Byrne (atm) (not a direct swap for positions. Byrne could have been anything but he’s gone, Byrne's spot will go to Williamson)
Goddard > JGM (One has played games and one didn’t make it. Goddard is a depth player. Neither in our current best 22)
Bugg > McDaid (One has played, one didn’t make it. Bugg can play. He has to want it.)
Newman > O’Shea (Newman is an interesting one. Is he going to be in the best 22?)
Setterfield > Shaw (not a direct swap for positions but an upgrade on the list)
B. Silvagni < A Silvagni (atm) Ben is a project player and I doubt we will see him next year)
Not all those newbies will play footy next year and we have a host of good players returning from injury to step up.
Walsh, Stocker, McGovern and Fasolo will all possibly play Rd 1 with a few others banging on the door.
I think this has been a good trade and draft period following on from a couple of previous ones.
The ball is in Bolt’s court now.
On another note, someone posted a list with the left footers on it but I can't find it.
We picked up another couple in the draft in Bugg and O'Dwyer
