Balme is right all clubs are in perpetual rebuild some more than others is the only difference.
The state of the list determines to what extent you approach the rebuild.In every single area of our list we lack quality and depth.
Our best 22 is probably competetive with most teams, just like most clubs best 22s are.
Every one on this site has done the exercise of breaking the list down, I would say just about every poster has acknowledged we have a clear top 5 and then daylight.
Another problem is most of our juniors are clearly no better than most other teams kids in fact the concern here is also a lack of quality.
The mid tier well fmd just have to go yet they are actively giving these failures contract extensions.
As far as rebuilds go ours will have to be pretty full on for the next 3 or 4 seasons.
Looking at Just two of the areas below and it is lousy but it rings true for all areas
Rucks - Hampson,Soldo laughable situation.
KPF - Riewoldt then day light to an inconsistent and barley passable Griffiths. the rookie Chol who is another in a long line of RUCK/FWDS who will probably not be outstanding in either role.. last Elton who has been around what 5 seasons and done nothing. Serious questions has to be how hard would it be to upgrade the last 3. A rookie a bloke who has played few afl standard games over a long period and a bloke who cant even get a game. Are they or should they be the long term solution to our kpf problems or should we be actively looking for better.
