Adelaide pop the centurion cherry! For all the value in the 22 - Port are really taking their time to see results. |

It is a lot of value, but moves are few and far between. |

Haha I can't control my opposition Stoney, with the score I'll put up this week (provided my Coll/Melb players play as expected) I'll break 90 for the first time at Port - with only 21 players (If Barrass's score counted to take me to 22 I'd expect 93-95) I'm more confident in the future of this list than I ever have been. Only three best 22 players out with injury (It's usually been up to 8-12) and all of a sudden I'm scoring 80-90. The 22 Port listed players who played this week had an average age of bang on 21. Between them they averaged 39.4 AFL games. 8 had played less than 10. Yes, there's a core of 20-23 year old stars (Laird, Ellis/MacRae (loose use of star), Bonts, Stringer, Wingard, Treloar, Wines), but the bulk of this 22 is made up of genuine kids. I wonder what would happen IRL if a side averaged 39 games and an average age of 21 with 8 <10 gamers. I'm now scoring mid table points, I suspect this score would put me 7-10th for the round. Considering the year to year improvement of these boys with their age and the fact that nearly every player on my list (Jordan Dawson, Tom Lamb and Brayden Sier the exceptions + a couple of rooks) is somewhere close to a senior game, I'm expecting next year and the year after to have ~30 players to pick from every week. Of course I expect scrutiny - when you manage a list for so long but take ages to get a result, questions should be asked. But I'm not going to make the mistakes other coaches have made. I don't want to pull a trigger and be better than 13-15 other coaches. I have to be better than 17 other coaches to win a premiership. So I'll be patient and make sure I don't let short sighted impatience cost me a flag. And look, I understand your comment Gav - I know you like a lot of my list - and you'd like to have them. So me impulsively making moves works in your best interest. But I do make moves - mainly over the off season though. And when I do, they're often big moves; radical changes to list profile or big names changing clubs. I just don't see the need to micro-trade through the season given my current list (that and for the last 4-5 months I've been on very low activity for personal reasons). |

Thrilled with the total, I'm benefitting from basically an injury free run and a few overachieving scores this week, but the future is bright, I would say my whole list is full of players who's best football is in front of them |

That's not true - not tagging Jack Steven was a rookie mistake. I just thought Port would be doing a lot better in 2016 than it has done. Of course the results will come in time - nobody is doubting that. |
