“I have come from a club that is regarded as one of the most talented in recent decades but in my last few years we were getting beaten by teams that had better systems. We came out short against teams that were able to play a better brand of footy in finals.
“Talent can get you so far but it’s about molding that talent together and that is our biggest challenge at the moment.”
If you had 2 x low end top 10 picks (say 8 & 8) in consecutive drafts, the chance of drafting a Dylan Shiel is not high. We might only get him for 5-7 years but he’s worth 3 of those picks. Absolute gem.
