Stupid argument. We didn't lose the Grand Final because of Otten.We kept Otten around as depth, that worked a treat on Grand Final day.
That works fine if you're at the bottom of the ladder, in the middle of a major rebuild. It's completely and utterly stupid for a team which is contesting the premiership. Premiership contenders require a number of "depth" players, who are AFL experienced, ready to step into the side at short notice, and capable of performing reliably at the required level.They don't have to be all 18 year olds, they can be a mid 20's mature age recruit as long as they have the potential to eventually be in the best 22.
