These are excuses. We had gaps that needed to be filled. To say there was no one available when there are 17 other clubs out there is a cop out Hawks, Bombers and Swans were each able to grab a bunch of players from other clubs and turn them into very solid players. Some cost them a fair amount, many came cheap. We watched.- New List Manager - Tim Lamb?
Come on, man! - we we went all chips in on Grundy "We see 4 flags ahead of us" was what he was told! Had we thrown $600-700k plus on a key forward instead of a non-forward ruck, we migh've got more bites. We were sitting in the window, after all. Top clubs get what they want if they go hard enough... Geelong, Bris, Coll, Richmond have recruited key forwards - there are a number of key forwards who mightve been tempted with the Grundy money. Many re-signed at their clubs between 2021-24, but our tunnel vision of trying to turn rucks and key backs into forwards has missed the point - Dunstan, Billings, Grundy, Hunter, Fullerton, Schache, McAdam, Majak Daw, Marty Hore have all not succeeded and came from other clubs. I know, I know, "We have to have depth players!" In short, our recruitment to fix needs has been bitterly inadequate. We've drafted some good long term players, Windsor, McVee, JvR, but trading has been poor since 2021.
