Just on recruiting and development, Kane Lucas clearly was a bust, but obviously I feel was clearly a drafting lemon, more than a player development one. It doesn't look like Lucas will get a game at a strong WCE outfit.
Our player development in the past few years of Cripps, Graham, Buckley, Holman has been much better, which is a start, this is a controversial thought, but I firmly agree with Mick's philosophy of making kids earn their stripes in the VFL (even if he probably took it too far with Graham)
Holman especially strikes me as a self-made footballer, who is/will succeed at AFL level by serving an lengthy apprenticeship and basically reducing any compliancy in his game to a minimum (a trait that's sadly cropped into Menzel's game)
We didn't our due homework into Kane Lucas and his attitude/work rate etc, something I trust we have rectified with SOS and McKay on board ...
