We completely missed the boat on needing hard running players who were elite aerobically and skillful. Years of fade-outs to show for it. It was most obvious when we had Watson, Hocking, Heppell and Myers in the middle and got smoked by anyone who had outside run/faded badly every year the longer the season went on.

we insisted on targeting KPPs over and over, and opted for explosive types who were easily gassed.

It will forever blow my mind that many of us have been screaming this on this platform for over a decade - longer- and only now have we got a list manager who is showing signs of prioritising aerobic run and spread traits.
