I think he's talking about how we played earlier this year - like Round 2 against Essendon. It was nothing like how we played in '12-'15. We just couldn't sustain it with injuries to key players and fatiguing youngsters.
Very much sounds like we're going to play the way we have done in the past. I'm not sure that our game style stands up in modern day Footy anymore, but will give Ross this year to prove that it does. I'm not at the event so I'm unsure of the context of what Ross said. Anyone there?

I hope we go back to first half of 2015 game style.
We got injuries to key players and Ross reverted back to type.That got worked out pretty quickly hence the second half of the season and the finals.
I think its obvious by the clip and don't everybody jump on and say comonn its only 1.3 seconds of footage it tells me enough. and it tells me enough is enough is never enough. It tells me he doesn't have it in him to go that one final step to a grand final. I've said a hundred maybe double that even a thousand times!!! MY opinion is even if he gets the old flag here as a coach he'll never do it as a player so what good is he, my uncles nephews under 12's coach has taken 3 teams to premierships and knocked back Collingwood and Richmond to stay in Willetton but the Dockers ignore him every year because of ro$$ Lyons arrogance
That's my quarter shillings worth for free
While I accept your overarching point that we will potentially be up against Carlton a lot, the players you have matched together are nowhere near like for like. Docherty is a back line distributor whereas Pearce is KPD (Wilson/Ryan is the closest we have to Doc). SPS is not a renowned running machine like BHill. Stocker and Sturt play completely different roles - although both need to improve their tanks.
I just don't see that. Not even close.I Literally took 7 minutes on those matchups happy for you to do a deep dive into the comparable matchups.
My point is Carlton are the GWS of 5 years ago have quality top 10 picks on each line, except with little or no go home factor.
From 2021 imo they are about to be top 4 for as long as Patrick Cripps is playing.

He made a lot more reference to their preparation compared to what they were doing last year or the year before. What they were doing when he first arrived at the club is what he is going back too (pre-season, in-season training). The game-style, game-plan stuff is just an overarching comment.So he's basing the integrity of our supposedly new game style over the sample period of the last three seasons? That doesn't seem right.
Lol, Under 12s coach.. I can't even tell if this comment is serious...I think its obvious by the clip and don't everybody jump on and say comonn its only 1.3 seconds of footage it tells me enough. and it tells me enough is enough is never enough.

In no way are they building a 'dynasty' in the way we all thought GWS were.
It wouldn't surprise me to see Bolton given the arse within the next two years.
At this stage I expect them to be long term finalists in a few years time - perhaps similar to the mid to late naughties when they had all those #1 picks under Ratten.
No stress, we Agree to disagree. Sam Walsh, Paddy Dow, SPS, Cripps midfield imo is likened to the Brisbane dynasty in the early 2000’s. None of those players will be moving “home” either so all of that core will still be there in 2025
Err .... no - just no.
The closest thing they can be likened to is the Carlton side the last time they stacked their midfield with number 1 draft picks and had no ability to develop the talent.
Cripps - FyfeNo stress, we Agree to disagree. Sam Walsh, Paddy Dow, SPS, Cripps midfield imo is likened to the Brisbane dynasty in the early 2000’s. None of those players will be moving “home” either so all of that core will still be there in 2025
Cerra > Dow.Cripps - Fyfe
Walsh - Cerra
Dow - Brayshaw
Stocker - Valente
Fisher - Langdon
SPS - Tucker
One list is destined for finals this year or the coach gets sacked! The other will never be any good. Bigfooty logic - there must be some crystal balls floating around somewhere.
I reckon Dow will be the pick of last years draft, and Walsh this years. That should make for a formidable engine room in a couple of years.
