They brought in younger, budding superstars.

They spread the wealth a little bit, which I heard and did see some Brendan Gale comments that Tasmania are going to follow a similar blueprint that the Giants did.

They played in a prelim early.

They played back-to-back prelims in 16 and 17.

They made a grand final in 2019.

That little down year in COVID, they were like... There's an argument to suggest...

And, you know, they had, you know, talk about 24.

In 23 here at the MCG, they had Collingwood.

Not beat, but they were on top in a prelim against the Pies who eight days later went on to win a premiership.

So they've been there.

They've been a wonderful footy club.

And that is probably why the confidence in their ability to be able to fight their way through some, you know, list or on-field issues.

I think people probably are going to back them in with the men and women who work there.

The off-field thing is just probably a bigger concern, JJ, because unfortunately again yesterday, really small crowd.

And that's become the norm.

And when you turn on the TV like I did and you see a crowd that small, it doesn't even slap you in the face, JJ.

It's just unfortunately the...

the stark reality of playing home games if you're a GWS giant.

So that's, I'm not going to say it's a bigger issue to deal with, but there's most certainly probably challenges that are harder to handle than the on-field stuff that they will, I think, get right because their first sort of 15 years of it, they've done an incredible job.

Do you think it hurts?
