Just to follow up on my other post, as I forgot to include Freo. Our oldest 2 players is equal 7th-9th with Freo and Hawks at 33.5 years old average. Places 10-13 average 33 years. If we removed the 2 oldest players from every club, we would be 9th youngest, 0.1 year younger than Suns and 0.1 year older than Port. There would be 6 clubs within 0.3 of a year above and below us, Carlton 6th at 24.6, us 9th at 24.3 and Freo 12th at 24.0.
Really a kind of nothing analysis. I'm surprised it got likes, I'd have thought them harder to come across.
What if you also take off the 2 oldest and 2 youngest - then the next 2 from an experience pov at each end (not counting the ones already gone due to age)?
Where do we rank then?
Does that show we actually were good last year and just unlucky with the draw??? Does that show how crap our coaching and selection policies were?
If not, please keep removing players until we get the desired result!
