Glad the club have done due diligence as to whether it’s still the best option and not just done it for the sake of it.

To the contrary, I think we will play finals and that Billy McCormack will poll well in the Magarey, but its very hard for a ruck-man to win, especially if he's picked up in the mid season AFL draft. I don't think we'll do so well on the Ken Farmer, because Aiden Grace will play in the midfield as will Justin Hoskin, while Kendall will play at half forward.
But we'll kick enough goals. We will finish 4th or 5th.
One condition - if we lose McCormack, it will be much harder to make the finals. He will be one of our key players.

out for about 6 weeks with a damaged MCL (medial collateral ligament).
Might see him not get picked up in the mid-season draft.
Should be back in time for our surge toward the finals lol

I sure hope that he is indeed back for our surge towards them... as I believe the first finals we may participate in may be about 2024 or 2025

Hopefully he can identify other people that can do it better than our current crop, or implement a better system to make it work.

He'll want to be hands on, good luck.

We will need the luck. Without having the stats in front of me we would have recruited 30 blokes in the last 5 years (average of 6 a season). At a guess I would say we would be lucky if 5 of them have turned out to be quality SANFL footballers.

At present I would say we only have 2 recruits in the current side that fit that category.....Fort and McCormack. The rest of the recruits are 'serviceable' at best at may not develop past that. Buechner the most promising of the rest but still has a long way to go imo.
The 2021 crop was horrific...……..Hill, Coff, Templeton, Graham, Morton
Grant has shown signs at times and Neagle is basically the same 'okish' Neagle we recruited the first time.
