    Here is his latest take on our recruiting strategy for 2019



    It's a big next 2 years in terms of list management. Let's hope he nails it.
    We better sign up Sam long term asap because they're gonna come for him.

    Can see him soon stepping up to Footy Dept boss or even a CEO in next few years.

      Who would have thought that the lack of urgency in his playing days would become a virtue later on life.

      Calm as a sloth when we needed him to be.

            Highlights:

            - Demanded a high price from Brisbane for Adams and got it
            - Used the identical picks above for Bruce
            - Keath costs us 45 & 60
            - Gave up 19 draft points this year to secure Garcia last year
            - Got Treloar, $1.5M, 500+ draft points for a future second rounder
            - Got mature depth players Duryea, Lloyd, Hannan & Martin very, very cheap
            - Good faith traded Roughead as the coach didn't want to select him
            - Good live trading, securing future picks
            - Taking West as F/S and soon MacPherson and JUH
            - Kept some good picks in the bank to use on Bailey Smith & Weightman at the very top end while brining in top end mature talent
            - Didn't buckle to Essendon, St Kilda or Adelaide when the pressure was on
            - Worked the rookie list A & B smartly
            - Kept re-signing the players we wanted to re-sign

            Not a bad first three years...

                      I'll look forward to the press conference in the car park of the Four Seasons hotel/landscaping/sex toys conglomerate
                      They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.
