5 new players coming into the club this trade / draft period …..a rebuild that’s already completed, and a list that’s the best in the Clubs history

If you doubt that last statement …. identify the players who will develop into A grade

The Tassie comment doesn’t impact us, as we won’t be rebuilding …. same can’t be said for COLL & MELB …. and if RICH don’t nail this draft or fail to develop this years crop… they’re in trouble too

The media also laughed at Hardwick in 2015, when he said the same about his list

Ladder position is not a reflection of list quality ….. there are many other factors involved; experience, injuries ect

But i’d match this list, after adding #4 as being our best depth ….. sure we’ve had absolute superstars, but not the depth of A graders we have now

Some people though can’t extrapolate talent to future scenarios

Richmond's premierships were built on having Dusty. They had a number of really good players but without him they don't win a flag.

I think we have the top end talent but not that absolute elite player. Hopefully that's pick 4 this year.

I think you need a number of elite players, and a depth of really good and good players.

Dawson, Rankine, Thilthorpe, pick 4 and probably two of Soligo, Max, Curtin or Rachele could be elite.

Fog, Hinge, Worrell, Keane/ Murray, Nank could be really good. Is it enough? Who knows. But it's a start. It's something.

Soligo will never be elite.

He will be a good player no doubt but he doesn't have the burst of speed or agility to get to elite
 
I missed the part where Andy Maher says its the best list we have ever assembled.

Its not the best. Our premiership squads have almost all of our all time best players and that squad also includes several of the best all time players. Riccuito, Modra, Jarman, McLeod, Smart.

This squad is a long way from being on the same page.
 
Adding 3 B graders makes all the difference.

It does make a massive difference when there were 8 games in 2024 that were decided by 8 points or less and we only won 2 of em.

Any way you want to grade ANB, Peatling and Cumming - having them in our side over spuds that played significant games in 2024 like Cook, Berry, Jones, McHenry, Jones, Murphy, Hamill, does make a massive difference.

*not saying that cook and Jones are certified spuds - but their 2024 was certainly potato like.

I think you’re missing the context to ny post. GK reminded Waynus that he blamed a poor list for Nicks’ performance this year but he’s now saying that it’s the best list we’ve ever assembled. The 3 b graders are obviously the bridge between this season’s poor list and our best list ever.

I agree the 3 players will definitely make a difference but their addition does not make this list better than every other list we’ve had.

Not sure about that, Dusty was the cream for sure but none of those grand finals were that close where it would be a single player that got them over the line. Even all those finals they won, other than the 6 point win over Port, they were pretty comfortable.
