And yes AngryAtCasey, I (and maybe ProDee) wanted to copy a team that was knocked out week 1 of finals last year.

I think it is more reasonable to "copy" where the Bulldogs are going, rather than trying to emulate a team that has been labelled by some as the greatest of all time.

This team, had the fortune to get it right and have early picks, in a couple of super-drafts. Then, they had the fortune after this stockpiling, for the league to introduce 2 expansion clubs that prevented teams underneath from rebuilding quickly.

You can copy the Hawthorn model, and good luck to you; but you will be wasting your time.

I'm with ProDee. You need a mobile forward line that can defend transition out. For what it is worth, Hawthorn's forward line is not slow. Roughead is super quick for his height/weight. Gunston, Breust, Poppy & Cyril don't allow hesitant defenders any time at all.

Are you drunk tonight?

 

Drunk? Possibly.

Touching themselves while they type? Certainly.

It would explain why TGR kept hitting the enter key over and over.

 

We should keep this thread going. We really should. Please don't close it, mods.
