hypothetical, do people think we'd be in the mix to win a flag if we got fyfe?

Seriously no.

We need a A grade ruck not the C/D grade we currently have, this is the biggest gap we have.

Next is a KPF, the RFC is banking on Griffiths but I don't think he will do it consistently enough.

Next is a KPD, if Rance goes down we are stuffed.

We may also be short a top quality mid but will wait to see how Prestia and Caddy go

Interesting opinion there Chuck
Please refer to Western Bulldogs list that won the flag

Their smaller players are much more quality than ours, if we want to follow their structure we would need to move on a host of players that are currently in our side getting a game without having to compete for their spot; Grigg, Houli, Griffiths, Astbury, Conca, BEllis  and also Lennon, Lambert and CEllis plus a few others I can't think of just now

[Jackstar 1960]

Interesting though
After going to and watching the game over about 4 times
I think we matched the dogs when we played at Etihad and should of won in my opinion
Also when we played Swans at the G , we probably should of won by 2-3 , not a kick after the siren
In my opinion , at out best we are extremely competitive
Problem is our depth when players get injured
McIntosh and Houli left large holes that we didn't replace during the year
Even run with injuries and we will return to top 8

Your be got to be stuffing kidding Jack. Houli left a large hole?

[Hard Roar Tiger]

Agree on Jackstars point about our ability against some of the better sides. The main issue I see with our team is resiliance when things don't go our way. We buckle at the knees far to easily when the heat is applied and Houli is one of the biggest culprits (as was Lids)

Yes he did. A large hole in clanger counts.

Yep
I have all games recorded and recently re watched them
Interesting we played better when Houli played
Inside F50 count considerably down we he and McIntosh didn't play

So are you saying its because we get better metres gained from half back which pushes everyone playing deeper (closer to goal)?

[Jackstar 1960]

We kicked higher scores and were much more competitive when either or both were playing

[Diocletian]

Geez ....again with this clueless crap....you really are a glutton for punishment:

11 games with Houli - 2 wins, 9 losses.

10 games without Houli - 6 wins, 4 losses.

FACT.

Is that for real?

If so, Jack what the hell are you talking about?

[Chuck17]

I suppose Houli looked good streaming out the back line with no man in site.

Shame about the unaccountability to defend or how the kicks end up

Yes - went through the same thing a couple of months ago just after the season ended when he was making the same ridiculous claim......a bit slow on the uptake is old Jack it seems.....
