If the rebuild works out, and this current crop of youngsters become the top shelf 100-150 gamers that you need to be a good team, then they will be the ones who will be the core senior group that will allow future talented youngsters to play in the magoos for a couple of seasons, just like the Swans, Hawks etc.
Unfortunately, it also means that this crop of kids will be the sacrificial lambs, who don't have the benefit of playing in the 2's, and have been thrown to the wolves, as it were.
Hopefully, they will (like Murphy) be remembered accordingly.

Would have been interesting if it was the last kick to win a GF.
My take from memory ....
He stood with his back to the posts.
Side on to the man on the mark.
The minute he took a step forward he had gone off his line and it was play on.
As it was after the siren the goal shouldn't count.
The umpire told him and then totally ignored his own advice to the player.
However I'd have to see it again if he made the kick without taking a step (pretty difficult but not impossible) it would be OK

Should not have been a goal, he played on after the siren

Yep
Just had a look at it and he takes a step...play on!

That is a huge positive.We should get back Marchbank, Casboult, Kennedy and Pickett after the bye. I'd be bringing them all straight in if they're fit. Out for me would go Cuningham, Lamb, O'Shea and Thomas. That would reduce our turnovers by about 50%, reduce the number of our players who have no influence on the game, improve ball movement and should increase our scoring
All I can say is that we are not that bad, but our turnovers kill us.

Casboult might come straight back in but I reckon the other three should get some VFL time to get some match fitness...Marchbank and Kennedy need to prove their fitness in match conditions, both seem injury prone
and need easing back in IMO...

Wow, so dropping Thomas after being in our best 2 or 3 for every game this year after one bad game. You are a very hard task master.

I was at the Geelong game, it was just as bad

Thomas has had a great year but last night, especially the 3rd qtr, won't be adding to his year.

Probably is a harsh call, he gives 100% every time and apparently gives great advice out on the field to the kids. I just wish he would use the ball better, and he looks to have panicked a bit in recent games. Maybe getting some better players back around him will help with that
