They have no plan at all.
They talk about the long term and the need to hit this draft hard. They then talk about Butters and trading out of the draft.
They do nothing to get more picks that is adding to the ones we have. Instead talk about trading up and actually out of the draft.
They talk in riddles on one hand they talk about the need in certain positions and then do nothing about those who are failing in those positions.
There is no clear defined plan moving forward.they are basically sitting on their hand.
They refuse to talk about player deficiencies and doing something about them. They act as though everything is hunky dory and one player will fix all things .
Personally im over the b/s and spin its time for honesty and action and doing something about the list and players we have.
Go to the draft tiges stop the half measures do what has to be done make those tough decisions and get over yourselves.
I have grave fears for just how bad we can become and still have all the hacks we have and then need to dump them in compromised drafts.
In many ways they are all in on the back of one draft 2024 and spurning the opportunity to build badly needed depth in a lot of areas. While ignoring the need to cut deadwood.
I have a line thru Ryan, OH-B, Sonsie, Ralphsmith, Rioli, Green, Trezise, Lefau, Banks, Short, Burton. Clareke and Gibcus are unknowns and we have no idea if the injuries and time out of the game has stuffed them they too could be gone at the end of 2027. and we know Vlastuin Lynch Nankervis Hopper are short term we really should have their replacements developing.
Its no good cutting hard at the end of 2027 the calls need to be made now its just good old common sense and logic.
I suppose if they cut deep their problem is they then have to admit they have got so much wrong. The good of the club or self preservation which is it to be?
Just about all the midfield eggs are in one small basket Smillie injuries? Hotton, Lalor and Cumming. Hopper is 30 Taranto 29 and Ross and McAuliffe round it out its criminally short of what we need and no one seems to give a toss.
Just do what needs to be done tiges cut hard and embrace the nd hard this year. then we can start looking at f/a and trades and cover areas where mature bodies and experience are needed.
