We have taken some major steps, but we are still nearer the start of our rebuild than the end. There is more talent to import onto our list. There are some kids who have to mature. We have serious structural problems to overcome.
I can't see us getting to the finals this year.
That said, wouldn't be a cracker if we did. There were plenty of self appointed seers out there who thought we wouldn't win a game. It would be nice to show these zeros that we have evolved. Pity they haven't.

To be honest our rebuild has barely started.
We were the third average oldest team in round 9.

I have that unsettling feeling that any talk of finals this year will disappear after this weekend.. :
The only decent sides we have met so far this season have shown us the early exit door.
I spent most of my money on Women and grog.
The rest I just wasted.

I've looked at the draw and to be honest I can't see us losing another game.

Yeah, no.
I can imagine posters from other Clubs looking at this thread laughing saying ha... after 4 wins they think they're making finals :o
No - i'm happy with improvement each week, weed out the boys that aren't up for the challenge of the hard slog, build the culture - build towards something, not some half arsed Richmond attempt at finals.
We want sustained success, we want a powerful team - if that takes a year or 3 then so be it.
And agree with pp, after North kill us, i'm sure this thread will be shut down O0

Its ridiculous to even be discussing Finals. We re so far from a top 8 side its not funny.
We re still to play North, Cats, Hawks, and Giants and Swans away. We re bound to cope hidings in most of these games.

If Port had won, they would be in the 8 - but you're right, we're a middle of the ladder team at best.
