Roger Roger. Clearance Clarance. What's our vector, Victor?
If 2 of this year's debutants become top end talent (my bet is on Macrae and Bianco) and the rest solid contributors we will still be in a good position. We're getting Nick Daicos so that will be another A-grade young talent to develop plus a likely top 4 pick in 2022. Keep in mind Grundy, Moore, JDG, Maynard, Crisp, Adams are still AA quality players that are young enough to be there for our next challenge. It's a better quality senior core (with upside left) than most other rebuilding clubs. Complement that with another A-grade free agent in the JDG/Moore/Maynard age group in two years and we'll definitely have the talent to compete.
The biggest risk I see is game plan and coaching rather than our list.
Only if you can show us a successful club that has had heaps of top 5 picks and doesn't have a tiny strawman hidden somewhere in their training facilities.
And people abused me for the above quote and I'm proven right! A great example to set for all our younger players.
Read the below balanced and fair article from Jake Niall.
Pendlebury’s pitch a bad look for him and Pies
Scott Pendlebury has seldom chosen the wrong option, but he committed an awful and damaging clanger when he invited opposition clubs to make their pitch for his services.www.theage.com.au
If the Saints prefer Hannerbery over Dunstan, it says a lot of Dunstan, or the Saints are just that stupid.
Hanners has played 15 games in three seasons, Dunstan played 12 this year alone, his body is done. He ain't getting any younger! Dunstan is the obvious replacement. I'd rather we promote from within, like Reef or Fin.
He's literally just another Darcy Cameron. You would only entertain it if we were to lose Cox and Lynch.
I'd rather we drafted/traded a pure forward (to replace Cox) or pure ruck (to replace Lynch) to replace those players instead of another forward/ruck, which inevitably have some limitations in their game.He's literally just another Darcy Cameron.

George Hewett might be gettable on the cheap
Referring to Cox as a pure forward is laughable.I'd rather we drafted a pure forward (Cox) or pure ruck (Lynch) to replace those players instead of another forward/ruck, which inevitably have some limitations in their game.
You misinterpreted my post. Given Cox has been played as our main forward target I want us to draft/trade a forward to replace him. I wasn't stating Cox was a pure forward and my point was we're better off recruiting players who specialise in one role rather than more bit part players.Referring to Cox as a pure forward is laughable.
Champion data has Cox as EliteReferring to Cox as a pure forward is laughable.
Would like to see him get fitter and slim down. Already done a calf and hammy so hope thats not a sign of whats to comePretty glad we got McCreery over Spicer, he'd have to be hella talented at that height and weight.

Good to hear the Swans have salary cap issues.
Might be a window of opportunity.

I’d prefer he just come out say he’s going to leave as here it sounds like he’s leveraging this for a better contract and we’ve been ****ed over in contract negotiations enough.I think he said it because he's open to the right deal. If he didn't say it, but then went unexpectedly, would it be any better.
