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.
8 or 9 and I'm happy with the season even if two of them are freebees and another two are close to it, at least we aren't dead set easybeats any more.
That said our general skills are poor and there's only Murphy, Curnow and Byrne to add that will improve them, I think Walker's done and dusted.
We've just got too many players with unreliable foot skills, but we have a crack these days at least.
It's the best attitude at the club since we were a good side back in the late 90's, if we had three or four seriously good kids waiting in the wings I'd be very excited.
The only thing in this world worth more than a hill of beans is the Carlton Football Club.
