Although today's and last Sunday's results were disappointing from a short-term perspective, our placing seems to merit the development phase the playing group is currently in. Now I know many will say that this next statement is negative and adverse to a winning culture, but I believe that finishing lower on the ladder and securing a forward K.P.P will ultimately bring about greater success in the future. I can see all the makings of an exceptional AFL team, but until this key piece is secured, I can't see the club taking the next step just yet. Feel free to disagree with me.
