Young sides this week

[congorozides]

From youngest to oldest:

Bulldogs - L
Suns - L
Freo - W
Lions - W
Carlton - L
Sydney - W
Saints - W
Pies - L

Based on that I think we should have the Dogs covered in rd 20.

What about age?

65 games and you could another 4 more - Acres and that's 5 more but he will likely replace some one in that games bracket anyway

I'm a big believer in list balance being the most important ingredient to success.

However averages are irrelevant.

Err. Yeah ok.

Cool story bro.

You are the one saying everything is on track because we have a young list.

?

I'm not saying that at all.

I regard the quality of players on the list to be the greatest determinant.
Then the quality of the coaching, player development, medical department and finally facilities.

St Kilda severely lacks quality on the list, a result of poor quality in the recruitment.

Yes you are.
You wrote a huge long OP a few weeks ago saying we were on track and we would be good in two years.
You said we had a young list and were building.

If averages are irrelevant on what basis did you determine we had a young list?

Blues 12
Doggies 11
Freo 11
Swans 10
Lions 9
Suns 9
Bombers 8
Pies 7
Saints 6

FMD Pies and Swans both top 4 type teams had more players with less than 50 games than us, and we are shyte.

Something is very wrong at Linton Street

I think that is irrelevant to a large degree.

So what was the post about us being on the right track and that we will be good in 2-3 years when our list is the right age profile?

Just read it man. Very straight forward....

I read it.
I actually don't think you understand averages.
You think you do but you dont.
You think you are saying averages don't matter.
It is the quality of the players in each age group that matters.

That's what you seem to think your argument is.

But you are kidding yourself.

[parkeysainter]

This explains averages a bit.

I'm quietly confident I know what my argument is.

[congorozides]

Are we aiming for a flag or for 9th-10th?

His argument was a parkeysainter and blue sky brigade style piece to make all the current players and coaches feel good about themselves

He's saying we were on track in 2017 and narrowly missed out on finals because we had Rooy and Joey on the list. Basically, that's crap because Roo hobbled on 1 leg most of the year and Joey got injured and wasn't even top 10 in the B&F.

Basically he's happy with a natural progression and for Saints on track back to narrowly missing finals - Con Gorozidis nailed it

Not really.

My argument is very simply exactly what I wrote. And I've written it multiple times over the past few months.

No need to try to reinterpret it.
