Might be reading too much into things?
Let's be honest, the Cats (minus 6-8 top liners and not adjusting to playing a second game in a row) were quite poor.
Sippa is clever, and looks to have developed a better sense of when to run flat out. But not sure we will be adding quick acceleration / slippery to his CV just yet.
Happy though that our depth is starting to be confirmed as better than most have made out. Whilst disappointed in the way the younger players have been used by Lyon, and not real happy to lose Walsh and Lynch (and even Will Johnson even if his shoulders are a bit of a worry), there is some talent there in Cripps, Siposs, Ledger, Stanley, Simpkin and Winmar (and Crocker, Ferguson and Curren are likely types, Archer is a big body who can play different roles, and there seems a bit of ability in the new group).
