So we appear to be on a bit of trend now with ex-Melbourne players joining the Cats playing list.
What does everyone think of this?
The reason I ask is that after just reading the latest news about Cats management interested in Blease coming over I thought to myself... "Hmmm, we seem to be picking up more and more players from a team/club that has been deplorable in terms of results over the past decade".
I wonder where this will take us?
Please don't get me wrong, I have a LOT of faith in our system at Geelong and our ability to do great things with our list. I just wonder, from a long term strategy point of, where this could lead us?
Were the issues at Melbourne due to the players? The coaching teams? The management/administration? The overall culture at their club? A bit of all those things? Will we see some of those issues creeping over to Geelong like an unintended stowaway if we keep bringing more and more Demons players over?
Or, am I just reacting/worrying without analysing it properly?
Interested in hearing your thoughts.
