Why do we seem to think adding players is 'The Answer'?

Unpopular opinion, but getting Martin nearly worked as well. He had Gawn well under control at stoppages for 2 and a half quarters - unfortunately Jackson (and the Melbourne mids) ran riot for 8 minutes.

True enough, playing at Melbourne with him probably helped though, can't give the recruiters credit for knowing we would play Melbourne in the GF and that connection would be critical

I'm not sure Stef would have much advantage having been on the same list as Gawn 10 years ago, back when Max was mostly out with knee injuries.
