Think you've missed the criteria here.
That's outrageous coming from anybody on here except you and Warhorse.
I remember posters on this board patting themselves on the back about Geelong trading for Bruhn while Jones was recovering from a torn ACL.
I don't see it as an outrageous claim. Jones has more talent than Bruhn with his height and injury being the only question marks.
There's plenty of history in ex players going to coach there.
Would be career suicide for him though lol

Tipping Sydney for the premiership is like tipping the Cats in '95.
You can talk yourself into it...but when they're embarrassed on GF day yet again you're going to wish you stuck with your gut.
They've had 3 genuinely awful Grand Final performances in a row now, as well as a dozen finals debacles along that journey.
How they escape scrutiny after the rubbish Collingwood, Port, Richmond, & Geelong have copped for less is beyond me.
Now that season has started our MC now has to make the hard calls.

Who do you think should have been cut, how would that have occurred if the players in question were contracted, and would taking someone at pick 80 in the draft on a two year contract leave the list in a better position than the players in question playing an extra season?

A great example of why it's highly likely not to work would be 2018
We cut a lot off the list, and replaced it with Luke Dalhaus, Jordan Clark, Ben Jarvis, Jacob Kennerley, Oscar Brownless, Darcy Fort, Jake Tarca, & Tom Atkins.
One long term quality player out of that, and we essentially cut deadwood for more deadwood.
It has to be steady, and if you're cutting large contingents of players it has to be under the right circumstances where you're bringing in quality picks, free agents, or a mixture of both.
Otherwise you've gutted your list of experience for guys who will likely never have a meaningful impact at your club.
It's the Norf model, good clubs don't follow it.
The Geelong Football Club when they select and release on a Thursday night the team selected for that weekends match

I don’t think it will say omitted IMO
He was way too happy for someone who could’ve just played his last game of his career
Again IMO he plays again Thursday night, purely because Conway is still out, unless Stanley is also injured

Essendon will win a final this season.
Geelong should sign McCluggage at any cost.

I think they will but it's case by case. Bews case has already been resolved. Hawkins and Stanley not far off. Dangers body is making the decision for us. Duncan not far off.
The decisions don't even look that hard
