I do wonder whether pandering to the egos of the B graders we pretend are A graders traps us. Becomes this self-fulfilling thing because we're a big club that likes to talk ourselves up.
Senior players at clubs rule the roost and they rarely change.
I tried to raise this point during the trade period. We want to upgrade our midfield but who are we going to move out of there to improve on it?
Merrett? Not a chance
Shiel? No way
Parish? Plays 50:50 forward any ways
Heppell? Possibly
It's concerning and an answer why we never address it. We don't want to improve on it
