Is there a worst case scenario with these new rules that we finish last and have to use pick one on bewick? Or can we use #1 then bank some auxillary firsts from a Merrett trade for him after a bid
I don't reckon Brisbane will come to play personally, they are a bit choosey at the moment, hard backing up there years running
I call it about a 5-6 goal loss running away late
I reckon currently, well if sat was any indication, we pushed up so far to try and defend that when we actually got it there was nobody ahead to kick to, caddys paddock
Hypothetical
The AFL feels sorry for us and decides to give us a few Tassie credits before they take the keys.
We get given access to any 3 AFL players from any team, on the proviso it improves us enough to make the wild cards this year. No future stockpiling...
Which 3 do you choose? And is...
Daicos at the ground is a sickening sight, if he's not in the game he will force cheap little one 2s or runbys or even sit deep d50 just to compile. His GPS numbers should add a metric how far did I run for a cheap handball recive that didn't aid my team. He was going at 48% eff HT, lowest rated...
Collingwood are just well coached and drilled.
They had just as many skill errors as us, but their structure allows for them and punished ours. They were always front and centre when required, always a handball away when pressure came. Had proper kickin set plays that had them in their 50 in...
Has to go, absolute dead weight, worse, he's negative weight, meek, fumbly, lost his ruck role to a full forward who hates the ruck
And we extended his contract!
We are in this up to our eyeballs, Collingwood can't score, are grinding away at the moment. We have dialled up our pressure and have some decent options forward of centre.
I expect a high pressure high turnover game where we can get on the end of some quick fire turnover goals.

The other unintended potential failing of Richmond's scorched earth build, they have to play the kids from the start, no choice, now they are all breaking down and getting lti. Losing development time
This might be slightly divergent to the convo but the idea that any "build" has one cycle that ends in a premiership window or 12 on the clock also dosent really wash for me. I think any decent list build usually comes 2 or 3 times for a crack at the flag
If I look at Essendon, let's call 93 a...
Is scale it back in simpler terms
1. Assess your list and decide when it's time to tip out and start again
2. Announce to fans and media that a rebuild has begun thus lowering expectations from fans and pressure from media
3. Stockpile high draft picks via culling anything of value (be...
