2005 Lists comparison vs others
LondonTiger:
Hey all,
Got into a discussion about Richmond and Hawthorn and the fact they drafted kpp instead of midfielders. It gave me a chance to compare the 2005 lists,
Well here are the results

Brisbane 188.18 85.74 23.7 24.21 116.93

In conclusion
Geelong are full of young, fat, tall, inexperienced kids
Port are old, short, and fat
Collingwood are just crap.
Brisbane are the most experienced and well weighted. I expect them Premiers
Brisbane, Adelaide, Sydney and Port are all quite old, or is that, all Melbourne based clubs are beginning the re-build mode to challenge the interstaters.
Melbourne and West Coast could be the big improvers in 2004.
St Kilda aren't the tall, young, fit team everyone makes them out to be.
WB the tallest? I expect them to challenge for the eight this year. Certainly there or thereabouts imo.
Richmond, - well we will wait and see... Taller than I thought, about as light as I thought, more experienced than I thought.
Amazing statistics hey....
p.s. Work is pretty quiet this time of year
Bulluss:
Great work LT,
I wouldnt read too much into those stats though all the same.
Bulldogs have a lot of tall players who are crap. Street and Bandy to name just 2
And just because the average weight is high, doesnt mean their fat. Port players all have matured bodies with plenty of muscle.
LondonTiger:
No worries Mr Bull,
That was my attempt at humour, but alas, missed the mark :)

Can't argue wth that LT ;D
Just on the average age stat. Our's is misleading as we have very few blokes who are around the average value. Most of our guys are either 26+ or teenagers thanks to our great recruiting under Geischen and Frawley :scream. Our middle tier is pretty thin.
No doubt we are lightweights. As WP pointed out in another thread, Wallace in the members DVD speaks about noticing our guys as having "sailors" legs :help when he first arrived and spoke to them as a group.

Actually this was mentioned at the AGM by Greg Miller - he made the comment that we have 19 guys (I am pretty sure it was 19 ;D) on the list under the age of 21.
Clinton Casey made the point that when Tezza completes his first 5 year contract ;), Brett Deledio will only be 22 :o
You take out Campbell, Richo, Gaspar and Kellaway out of the list and we are young :thumbsup
