If it was 13 games then you would have a point but I dont mind the club doing something statistical to swing the needle an inch

Remember if the club employed Graeme Cornes for 5 more games we would have had a free swing at Chad and Kane

Despite their off field both would have helped us to 2 flags in that 2009-2012 era
I just don't think a possible father son in 20 years time is worth undermining selection integrity when will need every win we can get.

Hang on . NOW you want selection integrity when we havent had it for 20 years?

He wasnt even close to our worst player last week either.

Playing him in a game that most if not all of us think we'll lose isnt the issue you think it is.

We’ve already done the 13 games and way more though.

Recruiting ANB and Ah Chee... Why? We were not weak or deficient in that floating wing/hff flanker role.

I don't see the vision. The salary of those two should have been combined to try to make an offer to petracca.

The logic was to keep improving the floor of the team as well as targeting topliners. Who would you rather in the side for example..murphy and mchenry or ANB and AhChee?

They bring training and in match leadership. Setting standards, improving training intensity and developing the younger players like Rachele, Curtin, and co

How we getting anything close to the draft haul Gold Coast gave them? Meanwhile we gave up zero draft collateral for ANB and Ah Chee.

It wasn't 0 for ANB, seeing we gave up pick 25. We've probably got fair value out of that.
 
Peatling and Cumming also give us basically nothing.
Does trolling the Adelaide Board make you feel better after a poor loss today....

Someone mentioned Luko BZT Ratatouille taking up ports cap.

We seem to be doing the same albeit with less shit players.

Our strategy is get whoever will come, regardless of if it fills a need or not.
I'd take Peatling, ANB, Ah Chee & Cumming over Jones, McHenry, Murphy & Sholl every day of the week.
Because if we didn't bring those blokes in, that's who would be playing.
 
Technically it was McAdam because the Dees gave us that pick first

Technically it wasn’t, that was the year prior. It was whoever else we could have got in the draft with that pick. 25 was probably at the high end for his age and type, but he was contracted and he’s returning as much as we could have hoped. Had a shocker Thursday night, but has otherwise been fine.

The first group at least double the contract on average of the second group, so you’d hope so. McHenry was gone already, Jones is playing and Murphy gone prior to 3 of them, crossed over with ANB for a single year. More likely we’d be paying Dowling and Edwards or Taylor playing more games.

I think we did the right thing getting these guys, but as always, cost does come into consideration as to how good they’ve been for us. Cumming has been extremely disappointing, Ah Chee cruelled so far, Nibbler good and Peatling a bit up and down. But we’re definitely a better 23 with them in it.

Paying little overs to attract players only becomes a problem if we the lose players we then can't afford.

Given we had a younger list & been front loading most of our young talent, I don’t belive this is an issue.

Sure we would always like more A grade players, but important to improve the list with non A graders too.
