This is true, thier list gap is from the fact they keep chasing 30 yr olds from other Clubs but haven't brought enough youth through along the way. sure they are up now but how long can the older guys keep propping them up?

Will Harry Taylor go on again next year? He'll need a zimmer frame!!
Whilst we have the greatest player in the AFL on our list we keep loading up. If we fall off a cliff so be it.
I think Scott knows, he must do something with the "so called top end talent they have" a short term quick fix. But it may backfire.
They are just about done as contenders.
Cameron can go to Geelong but he will end up being serviced by a midfield that is becoming inferior to the one he wants to leave, as Ablett retires, Selwood older and slower and Diverfield playing forward.
Cameron and Hawkins are going to be taking alot of each others space unless they plan to role Tommy through the ruck at stages as he is actually not bad at it.
Dalhaus and Steven are not the answer for the Cats
In Dimma's presser he responded to a journo's question:
Q) Journo: If you look at your list how long do you think you can contend for?
A) Dimma: Look i think we have some wonderful players. Some of the youth we've got coming through we are incredibly excited about and we just need to hang on to these guys and get them playing. "Look there's a guy, (look I don't want to individualize").
So the key is not losing these young talented players because of their impatience to play, and I really really want to know who the young player is that Dimma was about to individualize but didn't

Ross ? Has been very stiff 2 years in a row now.
He was talking about the player we are selecting with our first pick in this year's draftIn Dimma's presser he responded to a journo's question:

My guess would be Collier-Dawkins, but there are 3 or 4 others who he easily might have been talking about.In Dimma's presser he responded to a journo's question:

It is a great position to be in, but even in this heady space the decisions on who goes and who stays are going to be controversial, with no correct answer reached, only opinion. (We will likely miss out on McCrae's input here).
We are the only club that may be purposely letting experienced players of quality go elsewhere. But lets hope we can create some space in the best 25 to allow for those on the edge to emerge.
Another that may be the mystery player is Hugo Ralphsmith, from the training I watched and a couple of scratchies before lockdown he showed great AFL traits in multiple positions, I said at the time he was a stick and body not ready for AFL footy. I am sure I heard someone say that he has put at 7kg whilst in the hub through weights and diet etc. If true he has gone from 188cm 75kg up to 82kg.
