When we lose to the Hawks next week I’ll be on the phone to GT to start the ball rolling. Bassat and his board have to go as well as Satan, Gags and Ratts. Through their stupid recruiting philosophy they have brought our club to its knees and made it a laughingstock

Re: The silence is deafening
We needed to recruit to become relevant
We CANNOT AFFORD to do what North is doing
If we have a 2-20 season no members would join, no one would go to games, sponsors would drop off
And talk of relocation would snowball!!!!
We have been going at just over 50% under Ratten (similar to Sheldon, Alves & GT)
That’s ok for now, we need to continue to build whilst still staying relevant and winning games
When King is between 25-28 we need to be contending
Coffield, Clark, Bytel, Byrnes, Owens, Windhager, Nasiah and about 6 draftees entering their prime

Re: The silence is deafening
Continue to hit FA to help us win games
Take Every first round pick until 2025
Take Every second round pick until 2025
Attempt to gain another 2nd or 3rd round pick until 2025
That’s 9 players chosen in the next three drafts - hope 6 of them look the goods

Re: The silence is deafening
I disagree. We should have done a full and proper rebuild after 2014. We have wasted 8 years and done nothing

This is the only way out for us I reckon.

Re: The silence is deafening
The only way to grab an extra 2nd and 3rd round pick is to trade an aging star. Who do tou suggest? I would trade Membrey for a 2nd and Coffield for an early 2nd and Byrnes for a 3rd

Re: The silence is deafening
We also need to grab a FA every year. Must get Amon this year and De Goey

We did a rebuild in 2013-2014
We had picks 3, 18, 19, 1, 21, 23 in those years
Look where that got us - we had a decade of irrelevance
Rebuilds are not full proof

Re: The silence is deafening
Grab a master recruiter and do a full rebuild. Trade out anyone over 27 for even more picks and take them all to the draft. Do that for 4 years in a row before you start bringing in FA’s
