The coach and the recruiter are everything. Look what happen at Port when they swapped from Primus to Hinkley. Horrible to finals in one year.
But while we were going from basket case to finals under your supposedly excellent coach our list was rotting to its core.
How many players who played under Ratten played in today's team?
How many 10 or even 5 year players did we draft or trade in during his years?
There more to long term success than winning the occasional finals match.
The only thing in this world worth more than a hill of beans is the Carlton Football Club.
