I don't understand the shit he cops because of that recruitment. If they're not good enough to be in your best 22 dot play them, but the experience they give you/could give is worth it. None of those guys are fuckwits, so they're not gonna be bad for culture and all it did was stop them having more 5th and 6th round shit picks. Dawes cost a lot but he's the least shit of all those recruits.
If I were a Melbourne supporter, I'd have rather seen them play any young bloke on the list instead of wasting games on Rodan and Byrnes.
Nothing against Neeld but the club needs an entire shake up of the people involved and that had to include the coach.
I don't really get what appointing Craig gets for them, they need new ideas and a change of structure, im sure Craig has had good input in whats happened in his previous role.
