LOL..
But we did..we exited out an underperforming coach and got in a better coach.
That is the reason why despite them having a better list that we are still competitive...and indeed made the GF.
Back to getting a better list:

Clearly Geelong's recruiting guy is pretty swicthed on and along with Clayton is one of the best , if not the best recruiters in the land.
Now RF poses the question why have we not done something about it?
Maybe RF has forgotten that the Saint's poached his right hand man???
A bit of basic research RF please before bagging our Club yet again
Now maybe the actual Geelong recruiting guy himself would have been great...but you can't get everything you want otherwise we would also have Hodge, Judd, Brown, sandlinads etc etc playing for the Saints.
We did get his right hand man though...
We did get Lyon
We did get Misson (getting more players on the park helps....)
We did get an Olympic Team Doc
We did get Drain..
We did get structurally a better team as Lyon and Co have aquired players for our weaknesses and improved the team that he inherited, that also had a truckload of players who had just retired or were about to ( Hamill, Harvey, Pecket, Thommo, GTrain, Aussie, Max etc....). Leave Lovett out and the combined trading/drafting is much better than it was in the immediate period prior)
We did get Tommy Walsh
Maybe just maybe RF mifght like to acknowledge that in recent years that the Saints are actually doing a few things ok?
