Agreed. Shep is well down at the maoment but he was outstanding in 2018. However Schofield's GF game was outstanding and he may have been a better fit than Shep.

We wouldn't have won that game without Schofield.
No wonder when we hack kick it from CB our guys are always behind but when Essendon hack kick it forward the guys in front marks it while our defenders are a metre behind.Watch us closely especially live and you will see our forwards allow their opponents front spot at centre bounces and our backs allow the opposition also front spot. Bizarre to watch our backman allow our opponents front spot.
Negative
7/22 players did not lay a single tackle.
wtf guys?
To be fair to TB he spent most of his time continually marking and spoiling.Negative

Its not like we are giving up at the end of games. Our forward line effiiciency makes us look better than what we are. Even when we were up by a bit, they still had more scoring shots than us. We cant keep that up all game. Its been happening all year.

Schofield played one of the great defensive GF's of all time. Just did not lose a contest.
We really miss his feisty attitude IMO.
Nic was the main loss out of those 3. Gaff isnt very influential and could be argued is the reason our contested ball numbers got better at the back end of the season. As good as Sheppard is, we had a solid replacement in Schofield.
We have no replacements for the guys that are out now

I still cannot believe Schofield was not selected in the elimination final against Collingwood last year, especially after he did the job on their talls in the GF. To pick Ainsworth or Petrucceli before him was a mind boggling mistake - Schofield was champing at the bit. They both rolled over and Mihocek, Cox, and De Goey dominated and won them the game.
Surely that was pay off time for keeping Schofield on the list??? Drives me mad.
And don’t get me started re their resting of Nic Nat in round 16 of that year and playing Hickey instead. That decision ruined the whole season.
Too many players on the list who never bare fruit no matter how many resources are poured into them - at least Ah Chee has a crack and attacks the ball. And why pay top dollar for Kelly? He was there going cheap with Pickett and Shloith who is still available btw. They should pick him up so he can show these passengers how’s it done (and it’s not rocket science).
With the new theme song my loyalty is being tested.

Depending on how much you value the AFL Ratings system this may or may not be interesting.
Naitanui is now the 2nd ranked player out of all AFL players this year, only behind Bontempelli and is rated at over 30% better than the next player for West Coast, Oscar Allen.
and how much alcohol is involved in doing it?
How much would be required to make it a valid ranking system?
