Winning isn't everything

[ElwoodBlues1]

That's what they said about Cripps, Diesel, Sam Mitchell......

I'm starting to think that if any kid is described as fat and slow, we should nab them as soon as possible. It seems to be footy code for "elite midfielder."

Mitchell was another who they just picked up for nothing from Box Hill after being overlooked, our recruiters had this athletic upside theme to their recruiting and were
happy to ignore real footballers who didnt look likely to be the next Usain Bolt anytime soon....
Its about balance when you recruit, for every athlete you need a footballer with a footballers brain to compliment them.....unless you recruit a Buddy who has the lot.
