You understand what a rebuild year is right? We've debuted a bunch of future stars because of the coach we have and re-signed most of them. We can't have them all thrown in the deep end which is why we've kept blokes like Boyd at fullback and Thaiday and Kodi in the team. We don't want to break future players before given the opportunity. Considering the injuries and the debuts, this season could be seen as a success. Just a bunch of negative idiots wanting blood around at the moment and Bennett is the target. For the first time ever the media might have defeated us this season. It's sad that half of fanbase allowed it to happen.
I have to disagree with you matey. Anytime we make the finals is a small success on the way to a larger goal. Even if we fail miserably, it's an experience that the rookies in the team need. No matter the result playing in a playoff game is invaluable in terms of exposing young players to the pressures of sudden death footy. The only way they get good and lift their success rate in those games is by playing in them. All this talk of missing out will be good for them is absolute horse shit.
