    Overloading the B team with an extra man or two maybe?

    The gulf between our midfield and the better sides is huge though. Curtain has had a great year and expect another step up from both these guys next year. Maybe enough to close the gap some but not get us to parity.

    Not the VB "great club man, sets the standards" type leader either. On the field, when it matters this guy consistently lifts when its needed. Immense in that Hawthorn game. Built for finals.

    Preview R14: Changes vs. Hawthorn Hawks

    Didnt feel like working so i scraped goalkickers > 40 each year going back to 2000. For anyone interested, 4 players with 40+ goals in a season from a club has been done 4 times since 2000. Never 5. Port 2001 Hawthorn 2013, 2015 Adelaide 2016

    Preview R14: Changes vs. Hawthorn Hawks

    Had a quick look back - to put this in context, theres roughly 20 players a year get to 40. I spotted quite a few years where teams had 3 (2017 for AFC), but even 4 in a season might be a record (in the last 20 years at least) let alone 5. Rd 14 now, so not sure they all make it, but shows what...

    Yep, this has been the big one for me. His creativity makes such a difference - no coincidence that we looked a much worse side rd 5-6-7 when he was missing.

    Sounds about right - early 90s is about the best my memory can do. I watched some westies games back then to see if this Modra guy was any good (being a North man, i had a dislike to Scott Hodges and was hoping for someone to displace him), and was impressed with Mellor.

    Greg lad? He was a pretty fair player, alongside Mods

    Review R8: The Good, Bad and the Ugly vs. Carlton

    64% TOG. Seems likely he's carrying something. I think Nankervis has been overrated by this board. His last few games havent been great, but I think expectations are overblown and makes it seem worse. Needs to tidy up decision making, but theres definitely something to work with there...

    That logic doesnt hold mate. 1) Bergman is good - lets say 6/10 2) Hinge is better - lets say 8/10 If he believes Bergman is really 7/10 and claims "you're underrating him", it doesnt hold that he "must think he is better than Hinge". (Numbers for explanation purposes only.)
