Post Game Passion; AFL Rd 23: Carlton vs GWS

[LP]

My expectations were development. Are we better than this time last year? No.

We gave Eddie a nice farewell story and carried Murphy to 300 who seemed less than impressed with how it went down. Did it help Carlton? No.

SPS, Dow and O'Brien are supposed to be the future and we just completely wasted a year of development.

I understand that, but who or what gave you that expectation, you can't have just got it from thin air?

Certainly not form the club, Liddle publicly stated the exact opposite, didn't he say the time for development was over?

On the player names you mention, what about BigH, De Koning, Stocker, Owies, Fogarty, Honey and even Walsh has further progressed, do they not count?

Listing Dow is an interesting case, most in the media think he's made progress, not sure about fans or if fan opinions matter.

Is it all forward or nothing?

It reads like you are only looking at one side of the ledger.

Personally, I think a number of players have moved forward just in the last month or so, players we have not seen progress from for several years, why?
