The way our club works we will have 10-12 players of the 39 currently on the list playing in 2025.
Your list of 21 players above is an overestimation of who will be on our playing list in 2025. That's why 2025 will not be too late.
Between 2012-2019 the Grand finalists, on the day, have played between 12 and 16 25+ year olds with the exceptions being 1) the outlier Bulldogs in 2016 with 7, 2) Richmond in 2017 with 11 and 3) the Hawks in 2012 with 10 when they lost to Sydney, but then changed that and had 15,16 and 16 in their premiership years.
Ken can believe what he wants. He ain't going to deliver us flag success with his player selections and game plan. We have seen the best of his work and its not good enough.
At the end of 2021 there is no Westhoff, Boak, Robbie, Ebo,Broadbent, Hartlett,Paddy, Charlie, Rockliff, Jonas, Motlop, Watts, S Gray and McKenzie.
Most of these guys haven't deliver when it has counted, and when they have been at the peak of their powers, so they wont magically be able to produce premiership winning stuff in 2020 or 2021.
That was the team that beat Freo at Subiaco in the 2014 Semi.
Look at that talent. Look at their ages.
Hinkley promptly drove this group into a wall, but nah, he’ll take Rozee, Butters, Duursma and a bunch of inferior guys (Drew on our list at 27? Riiiight) to the promised land.
Sure.
