I would
(a) Play Kosi at CHB, where he won the Rising Star award.
(b) Make a FF out of one of Gilbert, S,Fisher, or Goddard or mcEvoy.
(c) Use Rhys Stanley in the ruck with King and Gardiner alternatively. Get as many games into Rhys as possible.
(d) Get plenty of game time into Armitage. He came into the team, got 3 Brownlow votes in his first match, 2nd Match not up to same standard, and he was not played again for the whole season......
(e) Have a more adventureous selection panel....
Improvements for 2010.

I am not sure why our forward line needs to much tweaking. I just check that AFL stats site, and we were ranked #3 in goals this year.
If anything we need to work on our goal kicking accuracy, and develop a third medium size marking forward. I still think Gwilt should be groomed for this role, has great composure and accuracy.
I also think you have forgotten about Ben in the ruck, was an amazing effort for 09, and I think he has shown enough to groom him in this role further not in a FF position.

Kick more accurately for goal in the Grand Final.
Play Grand Final on a sunny day to make it easier for Riewoldt and Kosi to mark.

There is #1 in points scored in the Grand Final, and then there are the also rans.

I wouldn't want to move Gilbert or Fisher up forward but getting Goddard or McEvoy up forward more often isn't a bad idea. McEvoy will play more games next year and resting him up forward will be good as is resting Goddard up front when possible.
I guess depending on whether King, Gariner or both continue will have a big bearing on Stanley playing senior footy. There really is no need to rush him, as we saw with McEvoy this year slowly slowly with big men never hurts.
Armitage will probably play more games, but he has to earn them, like Steven and others playing at Sandringham.
Maybe I'm a little conservative myself, but when the club loses 3 games by a combined total of 18 points I'm not sure that the selection committee have done an awful lot wrong, I mean at the end of the day they don't put the red leather thing between the big white sticks, wait neither do the players
That said it never hurts to review the system because if you never review it you can never improve it.
