And then there's the senior players.

So where are they going to be in two years?

That's a worry a little bit.

Are they going to get like a Darling type, Parker type, just to fill the void for a year or two?

Because, you know, Taranto is probably pushing 30, but then, you know, the Vlosten, Broad, Short, Nankervis, they're all in there.

mid thirties, Gerard.

And they're not, they're just, they're just playing.

You know, they're not like, um, I look at West Coast and they've got some old, so I think Tim Kelly's playing better.

Elliot Yeo's still a good player.

Jake Waterman's obviously, um, got some, a lot of footy left.

So those senior players to help grow the young players, I reckon they're going to run out of them before the rebuild's finished.

So they're going to have to recruit some, not, you know, not the butters.

They're going to have to go get the, you know, this, the rock solid 300 gamers who are on the back nine, um,

That's my gut feel, but I'm sure there's a plan there and maybe the plan is just to suck it up this year and play this day away because that's how we're going to learn for the future years.

Yeah.

Yeah, they'll be different when they play them again, I would have thought, Gerard.

So whatever the Jackson plan was, regardless of the other taggers that didn't tag, the Jackson plan was a learning experience, wasn't it?

Because there's the actual ruck contest, so the strategic –

coach would go okay well um deconing can take the ruck or edwards they take the ruck and then blitz ads will come around and just follow him around the ground and i think that might be the strategy that they go with if they meet again in a final or another game um that would probably be the strategy because the the attention to detail on jackson probably needs to be a bit higher i would have thought if you're geelong um and then murphy reed like has anyone tagged him yet

Don't think so.
