In looking at Brisbanes rise to a GF I wanted to see how they got there and if there are any lessons for us
I wanted to post this before any result from this afternoon.
Plus I couldnt be stuffed watching the game
1st Thoughts is how surprised I was at Brisbanes list and Grand Final side. It seems to me they have been all in for a few years and struggled to get the chocolates
A few things - I chose 2017 as the starting point as that was when Fagan took over from Leppitch. I did not include 2016 Draft figures
I have chosen the GF side to see how the side was built
( and I may have missed somebody )
Breakdown of list stats
Games Played
200+ 5
150+ 7
100+ 8
50+ 6
0-49 19 ( 5 with no games)
A lot of experience on their list
You can see the inverse difference of our side - that hole between 100 and 200 really hurts us
200+ 4
150+ 0
100+ 5 (includes Seedsman and RoB who played 100 round 23)
50+ 10 (including McAdam on 50 who may leave)
0-49 25 ( 4 with no games )
My initial analysis is we are still a long way off
Or
Brisbane underachieved
Fagans Record (apologies for Table )
From 2014 Leppitch finished with 7,4 and 3 wins but notice the reset didnt take that long - 2 years with 5 wins then a HUGE jump to 16 wins
Either way in a 10 year period it was 5 years , 2 coaches to make the 8 again where they have stayed
Should we ask more of Nicks by expecting a top 8 finish or are we better off expecting more pain as our players gain experience?
