All I said was we are better placed then i thought we would be and I'm very pleased with the direction we are headed.
Agree and even said it we have holes to fill but who doesn't expect that to be the case 18months from being a basket case.
So i'm the bad guy for pointing out, and trying to fill the holes we have?
Does that mean pointing out the shortcomings of our list, and obviously the players on it, make me 'anti-carlton' for doing so?
A lot of people seem content where we are at. (not specifically you)
Others, like myself, are trying to ensure that we push harder than ever before to make that extra step.
Its easy for a club to get off the bottom of the ladder.
Its extremely difficult for that club to be a genuine contendor soon after.
The work is far from done. Ahead of schedule? Perhaps. Personally i think a lot of people thought we'd be higher up the ladder by now. I used to get shouted down for suggesting this year would be a holding pattern of sorts in terms of ladder position. It's all tracking along nicely as expected IMO.
