Freo and the never ending rebuild

[pK75]

I think the club at times thought they could solve the problems of all the problem players in the AFL, Sylvia was another, We were almost like a half way house. Theyhad problems, we tried to help them.
I hope those days are all over for us.
But I have no hard time with Hogan now.

Yep, that thinking left with Lyon, can’t believe he has had meetings with Thomas, but then again, I can.

Had a dream last night that Jye Amiss won a Brownlow, so there’s that.

Thats a weird dream... if you said you had a dream of Jye Amiss winning the coleman medal. I would believe you. 35 goals and 28 behinds from 21 games is solid.

Traecy kicked 45 goals and 15 behinds from 20 games this year.

Look the list rebuild is 90-95% complete the true reality of this year is basically not icing close games.

Look at Port & GWS compared to us its basically the difference between coming 2nd and 9th.

There is SFA between everyone lets be honest its how you handle those tight situations.

There will be some tough lessons over this off-season and if we learn anything is how to manage these better and train for them.

We have tightened up too much trying to protect a lead instead of being ruthless.

Margins under 12 points or less

Port Adelaide - 6 wins / 1 loss = 85.71%
GWS - 5 wins / 1 loss = 83.33%
Essendon - 6 wins / 1 Draw / 3 Losses = 65.00%
