What is the biggest mistake your club has made?
Something that, if they could go back and do it over, would have made all the difference.
It may be draft picks, letting players go, retaining coaches, etc...
For me it is letting Pavlich go. With him in the team instead of McGregor, we'd have easily had a flag in 2005 and 2006 when we made the Prelims

Murdering the French national anthem for the club theme song. Luckily for the Brisbane Lions, Australian Rules is not all that well-known in France -- otherwise the Gabba would get a visit from the Surete a la Rainbow Warrior!!

In recent memory, north either didn't want to rebuild or due to lack of funds couldn't rebuild.
List of recycled players:
Corey Mackernan
Jonathan Hay
Nathan Thompson
Lance Picione
Brady Rawlings
Burke (don't know his first name, think he was from richmond)
To a lesser extent Sav Rocca
There might have been a few more.
I also didn't like how David King, Mick Martyn and obviously Wayne Carey left the club. Probably didn't get the farewell they deserved.

West Coast board not doing more to stop the drug culture. The whole state knew what was going on but they buried their heads in the sand ("we can't do anything with rumours and innuendo") and ignored the problem until it almost destroyed the club and cost them 2 (almost 3 if you include Selwoods addition to his contract at the time) of the best current day players going around.
the old saying "where there is smoke, there's usually fire" is actually true!!!!

i know there's plenty the crows have made, but a lot of them weren't on purpose but just things that seemed like a good idea at the time.
the two i can think of that were overwhelmingly stupid were getting rid of mcgregor and torney.
a lot of the time, neil craig will just drop players the team doesn't need at that moment, then the next year everyone is like we could really do with them..

My club did no longer get a much better grounds to play fits at. Our grounds carry below 10,000 human beings. almost each and every homestead tournament is a sell out yet who can it no longer be with over 2,000,000 community citizens.
