Think the club is in damage control. They don't want to expose the new recruits to disenfranchised supporters.

I thought I should probably edit it out. Also the fireball of Hinkley's departure is yet to happen.

I bet by the end of the preseason, at some point we'll hear the standard info from the club that they say EVERY year, there was some club that did something and was successful, so we're going to copy what they did. Usually we do it based on the premiers, but this year has a Hawthorn feel about it.

Such an "always the bridesmaid, never the bride" mentality.
This season would've been a perfect opportunity to unveil Carr, especially with Dixon and Houston moving on, I'd be much more interested in this pre season than what we got atm.

The AGM was definitely about emulating the Lions success. The message was that Fagan did it so Ken will too with a bit more luck. And if only the Swans played against us like they did against the Lions - what could have been. Totally delusional.
Ugh if only all the other finalists just had off games against us we could win it all
Worrying about the opposition's performance and wishing they didn't turn up is clear loser mentality.
This is exactly what they think, Koch in particular. Stick to bean counting you clown.
The funniest thing about it is that it wasnt even a GF.
So its basically aw if they played badly we could have been absolutely spanked by Brisbane instead of them?

We would have been thumped by Brisbane in the GF if we made it.
We would have lost by more than what Sydney did.
We all saw what they did to us earlier in the season at home.

Unless Brisbane played like they did in round 6 when they lost to the Cats at home? Unlucky again
Nobody can predict what would have happened especially last season when anything could and did happen.Unless Brisbane played like they did in round 6 when they lost to the Cats at home? Unlucky again

I actually can't believe Koch and the clubs takeaway from our finals series was "if Sydney just could've shat the bed with us like they did against the Lions"
Honestly, what other professional sporting organisation on earth thinks like that.....openly! Just so much wrong with that statement.
If that isn't the reddest of red flags to Tredders and George I simply don't know what is.

At first it could have been a joke but the fact that Koch has brought it up several times now implies that there is belief within the club that what he said is true

I love how we are so obsessed with copying the last year's premier. How many sides actually go back to back? The concept that you copy what was successful is so flawed. You need to be working towards what YOU think will be successful in the future, not what was.

Just talked about the thrill of lining up next to the big 3 at training and preparing for the season with the Magpies. Nothing much in it.
