I’ve got a few fans who like to try to pick holes in my posts. The trick is to be consistent.
While winning a flag and finishing on top of the ladder , we have drafted another 13 kids, with most either playing AFL or showing very good signs in the VFL, we also have added Tom Lynch, and this year we still have our first 2 picks and have moved up to either the first or second pick in round 3. Imho the list has been managed extremely well in recent years, we’ve stayed as contenders while adding a great number of talented youngsters

That's a bit OTT!
I think you need to take a holiday, relaaaxxxxx. Come back September.
While you're away our injured players will return and get their mojo up in running.
We get a roll on in August then BAM!
You return just in time for Afl AND Vfl finals, less stressed and back on board
So, if we make finals this year we should leave Tross, Jaaack, Pickett, Nank etc etc out in the rehab group n save them for next year???toothless said:
Crippled by injury we're easy meat for quality teams. Full strength we can match it with any team, so why wouldn't we be looking to get as many experienced players back up and in form for the finals run?
We are a system based team. Our system can withstand a few players out but our injuries have reached a tipping point where the system breaks down leading to heavy defeats. You could see on Friday night that the senior players were trying too hard I.e. not playing the system to try to cover the young players.
No top team can cover the loss of 5-7 top players. Our list is good and we are giving the kids great experience. No rebuild necessary. We are in good shape injuries aside. Finals in 2019? Maybe. If we get the list back to something close to what it should be we can make a contest of it.

Another ruck- ideally mature age 2nd ruck whilst Cujo develops, maybe a Tom Nicholls type to buy time for Callum.
Another 2 ball winning mids at least one bigger than 190cm to bring along with Rossy and Riley.
2 Key defenders ideally 195+ to replace Tross and Dave.
Couple of slick runners/ distributers.
Another specialist Key Forward.
Our list actually needs some attention in all areas imo save for small forwards at face value.

Spoiler alert the ending is not always - and they lived happily ever after, Santa and the Easter bunny ain’t real and Hardwick is an average coach
