And even then they would fail, I feel.

They have nothing to lean back on. No history of success. No big or marquee MCG games. No well documented culture. No big rivalry.

They’re just irrelevant and when they are competing for the same players that clubs like Carlton, Collingwood, Hawthorn and Geelong are they will almost always lose out.

I don’t think their Chairman coming out and having a whinge session at the B&F about how they can’t compete with other clubs because they don’t have the talent, can’t access the talent and the league is so unfair would help them in any way with trying to sell potential recruits either. That to me was a real bonehead move. Literally announcing that they’ve given up unless the AFL given them a leg up… which they then did.

Luckily when I was in early primary school my Uncle who barracks for Shepparton by The Sea(Geelong), use to tease me because I barracked for StKilda so I went to school the next day and most of my grade 2 mates went for the Hawks!
So from that day I changed and went from loving Trevor Barker and Greg Burns to Lethal Leigh Matthew’s and Peter Knights!
Never looked back from that day!
Thanks Uncle Graham!
I have always hated Geelong though!!

How is West Coast going to rebuild when they only have draft picks 12 ,26 and 73 coming up?
That is not much better than our picks.
And their current list is significantly older than ours.
Much prefer the strategy Richmond is going with
