Just make sure everyone is right to go for day 1 pre-season. If that results in wins or losses who gives a stuff.

Club needs a winning culture. If we pull a Melbourne we will have players on low moral who will either jump ship or become Jack Watts. It sucks immensely to finish just outside the 8 but I felt 2012 was our best year because the team had a better on field attitude (beat Hawthorn and Sydney and didn't get spanked by North Melb).

Would rather see the team go down fighting and playing honest football on any given day.

No doubt. But getting players 100% fit for a real crack next year will also be important. Why play players injured and then have surgery after the season and miss pre-season? What's the point of that?

Doing a Melbourne and playing your ruck as a small defender, a medium forward as a ruck etc is what got them in that mess.

Need to start thinking about 2015. Just think of what we could do next year with a gun top 5 pick that's ready to go in Round 1 :drool:

yep great winning culture last year. Win 15 games then lose to 9th

we need a culture first then worry about winning. They can start by getting Balme and rex down there.

If we've still got the likes of Chaplin, Hampson and Grigg out there it won't make any difference.

I'd say play all the kids. Results will fall accordingly.
