We're not seven years in.Not really. We’re 7 years into a rebuilding and still bottom 4.
We almost made finals on the back of a 34 year old’s last hurrah, when it should be off the back of our new upcoming talent.
We traded well with Rankine and Dawson, but who have we drafted that can give you confidence in our future?
Thilthorpe, Rachele and Soligo have shown glimpses… but they haven’t consistently taken their game to the level to take over the mantle.
Who is our Butters, Rozee, JHF? Not who is going to be, but who currently is putting up the regular performances these guys are?
The fact that we’re counting Curtin as a ‘pass’ when he’s played the equivalent of 3 games, and mediocre stats, should tell you we’re grasping at straws.
I don’t know if it’s drafting or development, but our best players are either traded in or guys about to retire. It’s a concern.
We started the rebuild after the 2019 season.
