Are our gains actual, or a product of the rule changes? I suspect that our defence is a lot more effective than it was last season. Although our forward line looks dysfunctional, it can’t be too bad if we’re matching last year’s scores - unless everyone else has been dragged down to our level :-\
Can I just say, that the tinkering of the rules is doing more harm than good (its a position I have held for years)??
How do we expect a young inexperienced team get better in a situation where the game is transformed every year by rule changes??
Geelong are going to win a flag, because they keep having a team of experienced players, with a solid foundation of game plan and culture, which is conducive to being best able to make minor tweaks to take advantage of said rule changes.
