we came close to the flag and the close of our window was perhaps one of the most abrupt in AFL history...it took us by shock and I'm sure I'm not alone in still coming to terms with the window being slammed shut.
Our time when we were contending was at the worst possible time given that we needed a replacement Key forward, with the expansion clubs hoovering up all the top KPF's for years when a career length in AFL averages to 6 years. . We were the most severely affected, but not the only team that was wanting to replenish KPF stocks.
If that were different, it still might not have gotten us a flag, but we might have had a better chance at it.
