There is the proof, so admit you were wrong and lets move on.
wrong nope. i took the ages from the start of the yr and hawthorn for the entire 2014 season had a younger overall list of that im right.
as of right now then yes im wrong we have a slightly younger list. but the lists are skewed atm.
to finish no i did not make the case that cotchin would want to go hawthorn because they had a younger list. judge argued cotchin would never want to go there because of the age of their list.
i was making the point the difference is minimal and, as far as i can see by the time the dust settles on the drafts and and lists are complete again there will be little difference between the overall ages of the two lists. in fact if we top the rookie list up with 2 or 3 mature players which is our wont, hawthorn may go into next yr with a younger list.
anyway i dont mind being wrong i get plenty wrong i have never said otherwise.
what i do know is cotchin if he does go to hawthorn wont be looking at the overall ages of the two lists and saying ah buger it hawthorns is slightly older. which is exactly what the judge inferred.
my money is on both rance and cotchin dragging their contracts out into next yr. if we dont travel well early there could be some upset tiger supporters around the place.
