Each year there are usually in 2-3 good players traded which means 15 teams don’t land anyone significant. 95% of your group still come from the draft.

Success breeds success. The more successful you are the more likely you are to attract quality players. Our aim is to play finals next year. King has to implement a game plan that challenges good teams. I think good coach far outweighs good players. Hawthorn is a prime example of this.

Steven may was a pretty big get..

Oliver unfit? Rubbish.

Agree.. it’s either a team takes on most of his contract and no draft picks or we compensate his contract but get picks/players…

We went that far off as a club… specifically with our playing list. We needed to make changes either the game plan and style. These players changes are drastic and weren’t necessary

Hopefully yes. Otherwise our starting midfield is going to get mauled each week

No trade value?

Finally a voice of sanity. I thought I was the crazy one thinking expectations of a second year kid are absurd

Again… people expectations of 19yo playing their second seasons are absurd. They expect everyone to be willing to Ashcroft

What were your expectations of a 19 year old in his second year?

She will have to uproot everything and move with him. She had every right to go up with him and help him make a very important decision.

Trac is 30…. Wanganeen is 23

How does eliminating the bounce make a difference

More like a one dimensional coach

Hahaha… no club is going to pay tracs $1.4m salary and still give us 2 x top 10 picks

How do you know it goes to $1.8m?

If they absorb his contract they might then allow their lesser contracted players to move on and free up space for trac

It’s as if people are forgetting that petracca is on $1.5m per year for the next 4 years and currently no club will pay more than $1m. The only way that we are getting any picks/players in a trade is if we eat up $500,000 of his contract for the next 4’years.

Brisbane has been using the same Clarkson game plan for the past 7 years. Not too many tweaks

Just mimic the Clarkson/fagen game plan… no need reinvent the wheel. This is a proven formula to success.

Tom Campbell is 34… wouldn’t want to relying on a 34yo as a backup

You do realise Adelaide finished 15 last year? It’s not unrealistic to think that dees can has a similar tune around

Second best
