Imagine bringing in baker AND graham, trading out pick 3 AND finishing 1 spot lower. FMD LOL

Every chance of that.
Even two spots lower if our backline falls apart and we leak goals.
I certainly see Norf finishing above us. Only Richmond a realistic chance while they play the 15 top 10 picks they have from this upcoming draft.

Im hoping that the inclusion of baker and graham will see our midfield hold up better defensively which should help the backs.

Hopefully - I think we're still relying a lot on having a fit Yeo/Gov

Port might have upset him on twitter and he had blocked them with his traditional FRO comment….

It was a crap article. Does some good analysis of facts but fails to offer an opinion on who will do better.

Does failing to offer an opinion make it a crap article?

Regardless, i enjoyed the read. Both teams are taking 2 different approaches into the rebuild not by design but by consequence.

'good analysis of facts' sounds like premium quality and better for the media.

 

[No Hassle Hough]

Nothing wrong with the article.

However, I do feel Duffield gets paid by the word/line. He writes great swathes of text that could be easily summarised into a few sentences.

Don't blame Rotham for having a crack at the plastic FWs that call themselves WC fans but they go out of their way to send abusive, personal stuff to a bloke.
Just gutless and low AF.

Make of it what you will

I think him moving was the right thing for him and the club and it also illustrates to me that the quicker we bring this young group through under McQualter the better

You could probably pick the older players who are just going through the motions.
