I don't buy the sustained success model and especially not for us. I think we should be targeting a window where Libba, Macrae, Dahlhaus, Bonts, Boyd, Stringer are 23-27, from 2018-2022

Agree with this . If we target someone 28 and over, what would the point be?
We need games into Roberts and Talia who've had plenty of development time .
We have a development coach who is pretty decent

Yeah, North Melbourne did that in the late 1980s. They stripped back, went young and had probably their worst 5 years in a generation between 88 & 92 prior to playing finals every year from 93 to 01.

Then there was Hawthorn who stripped back at the end of 01. They had their worst 5 season block in 3 generations between 02 & 06 prior to making 4 GFs and winning 3 flags in 7 years between '08 & '14.

I think we need to stay patient, stay brave and stick to the course. We're past halfway, so it'd be silly to bottle it now!

Funny hearing Gordon derided by that pilick Greg Denham for aiming for 10 years of sustained success and Luke B being a great coach,yet Mcchins claims the pies can win the flag and is lauded. Gotta love the AFL media and Denham unfortunately draws a wage from speaking absolute Drivel
