Why So Different??

There is a little bit of blind hope going on here. A win was most enjoyable, and a rare thing, but lets not get ahead of ourselves.

The club has only really cleared the decks these past months and started to think about building and setting direction. Of course we are on the way up. Couldn't get much lower.

With the state of our list, and our best player retiring we are in poor shape. At least 2 years away from finals for mine, and that is with good decisions being made at the draft and a good head of coaching appointed.

I actually think our list isn't in awful shape. We need another key defender to replace Jamo and a gun small forward.

I would say 2017 would be a very big chance and some hope for next year re finals. Considering we are playing the lower sides twice this year, five more wins is not out of the question. If we can end up with eight wins by year's end with more games into blokes like Crippa and Graham that would be a huge result. With another easy draw and possibly a gun free agency player, finals for 2016 then becomes a real possibility.

As I've said before, change the coach and it can all turn around very quickly. That said we could just as easily get smashed by Gold Coast on Sunday and be back to square one! Each week that goes by will give us a better idea of where we are at.
