Dusty Retires Immediately-ish?
True legend of the game. It's been an absolute pleasure watching this man go about it, the term generational is thrown around too much at the moment but he is someone who has defined his and then some. When you see kids at junior level running around doing the 'don't argue' you see this effect. Not that I would have begrudged him the chance to head north for a few years, it is rather fitting to see him retire as a one club player. Thanks for everything you've given the game Dusty.

Game plans, tactics and all that jazz
As Binman often says, our default gameplan is built for finals footy. Come finals time you will see a lot of teams play the forward half territory game. But during the home and away season if we were to go back to that I agree we would need to fix up the way we setup at stoppage and we absolutely need to get the high performance program spot on. The style we were playing is extremely taxing over the course of a season. Tweaking a gameplan is a much harder balancing act than people think and I can see just how easy it is to 'overcorrect'. I would like to still be doing this to try and find the right balance but it's important to not trek too far away from our DNA in my opinion.

Dees 2001-2024 = West Coast (2005-2008)
For instance, someone like Clarry. I understand and respect this isn't the real version of Clarry but with a player of his ability and stature, you would at least think that a 70-80% Oliver would still provide good value and that our midfield could hold their own in the contest. Not downplaying this in any way but I don't want to see this factor take away from other glaring issues like the way we are setting up at stoppages, depth in midfield etc.

Remember the title of the trade board at the end of 2022? "How to get back on track" Turns out the devil was in the detail, you really need to nail the off-season to keep the window open.

Trade Targets
While I'd like it done pretty soon, I can see Langdon as someone taking the cucumber boy approach (as in cool as a..)
