Always an interesting exercise to go through the 2000 flag squad and compare with the current.
Would only be 2-3 in the current best 22 who would be ahead of their 2000 counterpart.
I was in Year 7 in 2000, now I teach Year 7s…

It would be hard enough to do some finagling to get someone into that side, but even our current best player is not better than his 2000 counterpart.

I am 53, my first 23 years saw 3 Grand Final wins, my last 30 is 1, it’s a slow come down (Not sure how much lower I can go)
