Over reaction much.I'm very concerned if this is true.
NOTHING is guaranteed. We could have an avalanche of injuries next year or our form could fluctuate too much and miss out on finals.
These things, as well as players being forced into retirement through injury or requesting trades, could also happen in the years after that.
We're in a genuine position to steal a flag this year and we should be behaving as if that's the goal rather than potentially throwing away a qualifying final at home.
We are dead set “having a go” this year, but we may be hastening the timeline. It seems they have set a program for “adding layers”. They also set about elevating the fitness and durability of the group. Thinking they have been reluctant to delay that timeline, thus adding some short term pressures on a variety of fronts.
I have a great deal more faith in the group than most on here, we will go deep. Just don’t believe they will put off some steps.
