And the end of the day, we should be recruiting for our squad to aim to be premiers for next year. I am sick to death of 5 year plans to build our squad for the future whilst continuing to be outside the top 8 nearly every year and often in the bottom 4.
Yes by all means, invest heavily in junior development and I am fully supportive of this and this will pay dividends tenfold in the future, but we need both objectives of current success and long term success to be run concurrently as every stakeholder in the club wants continued snd sustained success, not just hope after 18 years.
We have made a good start with recruiting RCG for instant success and Cooper, Zane and Stephenson for long term success.
Lets keep these 2 objectives going.
Yep
Recruit to put the best possible team out there in the short term without sacrificing the long term, and build the best foundations for the long term without the opportunity cost being the short term. It’s a balance but it needs to be right.
I agree this off-season movement suggests the intent is there but we’ve got a looong way to go. Need to be far more ruthless with roster decisions generally I think.
