Footy is nearly back and for every fan it's exciting, what is in store for your club? Are they ready to leap up the ladder? Or are they about to turn to youth?
There's always dozens of questions in the pre-season. We look at what your club has up its sleeve coming into the new season and what you should be looking forward as the season nears.
Melbourne
Max Gawn's prodigyÂ
Luke Jackson is the eventual support and then successor to Max Gawn as Melbourne's number one ruckmen, but he found game time hard to come by throughout his maiden year and that may be the case again in 2021.
However, Jackson will hopefully get some pre-season game time and get to show off some of the skills that have the Melbourne faithful so excited for his future.
He may spend most of his time forward but that will be a handy skill set to acquire now, and whatever ruck work he does will be a bonus!
