The No T$ No B$ Thread
Remember players don't tank. The players made mistakes nearly as many as the umpires. I have now seen 3 incidents replayed, which as agreed by Bob Murphy and Jordan Lewis on AFL360, which all went against us and cost goals or denied us shots from close in and there were more I am told.

Don't know if we will get 5 wins this year, but we have clearly improved.Percentage is the first indicator. It is up. I think someone posted that we have lost 6 games by under 20 points. I seem to remember us playing most of our games in the last several years where we were out of it 20 minutes into the game. Then it would get worse. I would imagine that Stretch and maybe 2 good mids drafted and maybe another traded in plus Hogan and improvement in youngsters like Salem, JKH, Toumpas, Kent etc and another instructive pre season will have have us climbing the ladder quickly.

Haven't seen the game yet but to take Port to under a goal at their home when they were desperate to win to get into the top four, was a great effort. We are definitely improving and this off season in adding personnel and learning will be vital to our future. We are on the right track.

Tom McDonald?
Agree. Chip will leave and Tom must stay. As to the PP, the excuse Mark Evans gave for us not getting one, as well as the unsaid closeness to the tanking issue, was that we had Clark and Hogan to come back. If we lose the experienced big bodied Chip, a pick will not replace him for a few years while the kid develops and Clark is gone and Hogan has a back issue. On top of that we will have had another year, about 8 in a row where we have been poor and at the bottom of the ladder. I would be in there now seeking one and telling him if we don't qualify, then no one ever will again. I would go hard as a pick would be tradeable and may get us another experienced player or two.
