Look at Adelaide, the sooksAFL Injury List by Experience. Interesting to see Port's 4th worst even with all the games of Mayes, McKenzie and Trengove sitting in the SANFL.

Where is that from as that's a bit different to the one Swamp produced before last round. Tigers and Port had more experience out than the Swans.AFL Injury List by Experience. Interesting to see Port's 4th worst even with all the games of Mayes, McKenzie and Trengove sitting in the SANFL.

This is Jacobs' last year so that would be a fair chunk off the top. Douglas too.Betts has another year to go on his contract and on current form shouldn't go around again, but Jenkins is signed on till the end of 2021. I can't see them getting anyone to pick up his salary for that length of time, or for the picks the Crows would demand for a contracted player. They'd need to move Jacobs (and probably Douglas) on too

Are you saying there was absolutely no prospect of winning on the weekend? Otherwise you’re just debating a point I’m not even arguing.
If Adelaide had played the game on its merits instead of flooding back as if they were playing a team that was superior than they were and the umpires weren't so obviously in their pocket (Stephens was ridiculous), then sure.
When they decided to keep +2 in defence and we lost the long kick of Burton, no chance.
If only there was some way we could’ve counteracted this tactic.
Average Games Played is probably the only ladder where we comfortably make the eight most years under Hinkley. I can't find an update for this year, but this is last year's ranking of Average List Games Played (https://www.afl.com.au/news/2018-11-29/oldest-youngest-most-experienced-club-lists-compared)Players that we could have played over the ones that did:

Sort of begs the question why have Cripps and Parker still go their jobs when we continually have large holes in our list? The turnover says it's been poor list management of guys who got their jobs in 2011 and 2010 respectively. The hole in the 23-27 year olds, is too big.
We yo-yoed in the past and will do so again this year and probably next year with such a lopsided list once we pick up a few injuries.
Parker has been good, but rating recruiters should be like Michelin Stars for restaurants. You can be good, but you don't get one until a legit KPF is on the menu.Parker and the drafting team are probably the best performing department right now.
I don’t think they are to blame for the gap. Any gap is most certainly overstated by the fact we have depth that Hinkley is just plain ignoring, and the fact we’ve traded a few away Polec Wingard hombsch young impey and lost quite a fair few to injury.
I’ll do a quick drafting assessment in a moment cause I suspect Parker’s done pretty well considering he hasn’t had that many picks to do it with (trading for Ebert Ryder Polec and Dixon and expan teams diluting the draft)
My thoughts having a look through the list is that drafting has served us well and is performing strongly so let’s give them priority ie get as many picks as possible in a certain span of time to let them build the list that way. Especially when said team has a strong record with late draft picks
Butters is a garnish, not a meal.Parker has been good, but rating recruiters should be like Michelin Stars for restaurants. You can be good, but you don't get one until a legit KPF is on the menu.
Frampton isn't good enough to beat 2 defenders like Dixon is.

Fair point. Harder to measure and benchmark though.I think our issue is mainly development as opposed to drafting.
We get players to a certain level of competency then they don't take the next step

We're in the top eight with recent premiership winning and grand final sides, with none of their results. So are we going to pretend this year is a magical exception to a prolonged lack of results, just because we have a top heavy list of guys on the decline who're literally falling apart? Its not new.

Change between 2 lists is the supplemental selection player picks after that AFL link article.Thanks!
And lol, we've gone from 7th to 6th on Average Games Played this year (Sydney dropped below us), so its even more pronounced.
EDIT: In fact we're 6th for Most Games Played (Avg) yet have the 6th Lowest Age (Avg).
Thats the story of our list in two stats. Lost of kids in need of game time, and a bunch of experienced guys about to drop off the twig. More fodder for The Gap
