We’re going through each side and predicting their best 22 for the 2020 season.
Today, we’ve looked at the potential best 22’s of Hawthorn, Melbourne and North Melbourne.
North Melbourne
B: Marley Williams, Robbie Tarrant, Ed Vickers-Willis
HB: Jasper Pittard, Majak Daw, Shaun Atley
C: Jared Polec, Ben Cunnington, Trent Dumont
HF: Mason Wood, Nick Larkey, Tarryn Thomas
F: Cameron Zurhaar, Ben Brown, Jack Ziebell
FOLL: Todd Goldstein, Luke Davies-Uniacke, Shaun Higgins
I/C: Ben Jacobs, Jed Anderson, Aaron Hall, Jy Simpkin
Some coming-of-age midfielders are scattered across the interchange, pushing out the likes of Dom Tyson and Paul Ahern, for now.
Former Power duo Pittard and Polec are coming off career-best seasons, and there's plenty of room for midfield space throughout this side.
North fans will be eager to see more out of promising athletes Larkey, Thomas, Zurhaar, Simpkin and LDU next season.
Down back, it'll be intriguing to see if Majak Daw can return to the height of his powers and become a damaging force in front of key defender Robbie Tarrant.
This squad may very well push for finals, and could surprise a few teams moving forward.
