I’m fully aware that everything is not fine and dandy, that’s not my argument. My argument is that the club and forcing players to fit into a regime where they just follow orders and act how the club seems best.
The past 6-7 years I would put down to Trout recruiting players of “good nature”. They came into the club with the mindset of being good boys. I wouldn’t say the club forced them to act that way at all.

Yes you are correct about the strategy to recruit players of good nature. But do you think there was a broader strategy to instil that culture across the whole footy club?
Finnis...Richo...Geary. It’s glaringly obvious that the clubs strategy was to become as cultural reformative & bland as possible. Gringo has outlined reasons why in the above post.
IMO until only very recently the direction of the footy club has changed to focus on its main brief: winning games of footy.
The next 12 months is going to be very interesting, on & off the field IMO.
