Fun fact from round 10 to now we finish on top of the ladder.

Yep cant help but wonder what would have happened if we made the change end of last year. i know its a big if but the change in performance is amazing and clear we needed a new coach. The long down the long contested play was like driving a new car with the handbrake on.

The keep possession short game has completely transformed this team.

The form team of the finals and no one will want to play us and the multiple forward targets is unpredictable and GW fingerprints on the list changes are strikingly similar to what he did at pies and we all know how that went.

who would have predicted this at 1-8.

amazing.
Had we made the change earlier it would be unlikely that Fraser would be our coach given he needed the interim role to make him comfortable putting his hand up. Don’t know who our coach would have been let alone what we would have achieved…
The Ox is slow but I'm running out of patience.

Ultimately, we cant know what the alternative universe yields.  Whats done is done.  Maybe our pea hearts could have held on against Melbourne, Collingwood, and North Melbourne and maybe we would have been eyeing a top 4 finish.

Ainsworth's best game?

He's exceptionally strong overhead, very accurate in from of the sticks (like Frankie and Haywood) and has the looks and determination of Jimmy Buckley. Another N Austin great pickup!

Yep
Let's not turn this into another coach discussion.
There's a thread for that.
Let's keep the focus on the game today.
Lot's of positives.
