We're at rock bottom right now. A couple of teams in that list are trending upwards, and one or two treading water, but boy oh boy wowee are there a few teams that will eventually have to bite the bullet and go hard at rebuilding sooner rather than later and they might very well find themselves in a worse position than us if worst comes to worst.

I think we've shown an exemplary example of if your list demographics get out of hand and you time your rebuild too late then the pain you can self inflict can be exquisite. St Kilda in particular would have to be ******* shitting themselves if they can't find a way to turn their ship around. Those huge contracts for mature aged players will be like a noose on any rebuild, and the concrete boots they got with those players when they traded out all those draft picks will just make it even worse.
5 teams are going to struggle to rebuild via the draft simultaneously, that’s for sure. It’ll be a coaching feat to come last.

If we can hog all the talent momentarily, we’ll be in a good spot mid-term.
 
My mate is a Sydney fan and after round 4 was up and about, telling everyone the lid was off. They haven't won a game since.😁
Never been the most knowledgeable fan base. Insufferable lot to watch footy with.
 
Collingwood vs Gold Coast
Crowd: 24,397 at the MCG

Notice the crickets coming from the media about their crowd, we would have copped a pasting. This after their 29k against the Giants.
