We've put a player from every club under the microscope that need to put in a big pre-season.
Whether it's a young player that needs to break out or put on some size, a veteran that needs to rediscover a spark or a star returning form injury, the following names need a big summer.
Sydney
Ben Ronke
The live-wire small forward burst onto the scene in 2018 with a seven-goal performance in just his third game. Ronke would go onto play another 15 games that season, kicking 24 goals and even polling five Brownlow votes, and was expected to be a future star of the competition.
Fast forward to the end of 2019 and the 21-year-old has only played an additional 13 games and kicked just nine goals. With Sam Gray and former Rising Star winner Lewis Taylor joining the side, and Tom Papley staying put, the competition for spots in the Sydney forward line is immense and unless he makes a statement in pre-season, Ronke could be left in the dust.
