Burgoyne killed us and we were lucky Gunston didn't have his kicking boots on for once, there's still a wide gulf between us and the best and we can't bridge it by busting our guts.
We need some genuine skill ASAP.
He's not that wrong. With better run and execution we won 6 out of 7, admittedly against sides at our level, excluding Geelong, and made life tough for others. We are a few midfielders short, which hopefully we can sort in the next draft or two. We are in the first year of a rebuild so you'd expect we'd be a bit down on the best. There's signs with a few more additions we can be a serious side.
We might eek out 8-9 wins with our run home from here.
