Well isn't it ??

On field maybe yes, but at the end of the interview Silvers mentioned ANB is adding some sort of intangible change that minimises the lack of the football department change because he has premiership experience, bringing in players albeit with premiership experience doesn’t give you an excuse to basically keep absolutely everything around the playing group the same.

I agree, I want to see more change within the coaching staff in particular

I'm expecting they'll announce Bello is leaving and that'll be the last change.

The way Adam Kelly was talking about the soft cap, sounds like they're maxed out or over and don't want to pay anymore to bring in a senior assistant.
Plenty of room if we move Kelly on. ;)
 
Graham will (but shouldn’t) get band 3, so that’ll push it out to 29

Then there’ll be Ashcroft/Kako/Lombard/Marshall bids

Would make it 33, which is probably what ANB’s worth I guess
If not lower watch any vic team get compo higher than they should for spud players
