All well and good wanting to bring in a coach to get us that extra step further, but who even is that and what does it look like? The thoughts of what could happen under a different coach scares me more than sticking fat.
After years in the doldrums Man United finally got a coach in Ole who took them back up to 2nd two years running. It wasn't good enough because fans thought he wasn't capable of finishing the job - they basically drove him out of the club and look at the state of them now.
This is horses race until this team can race no more. All it takes is one grand final in a matchup that suits us, and all the pain would be worth it. I'm still convinced we would've smashed Geelong, wanted to avoid brisbane like the plague unlike some here. I think footy is as simple as that at times..
We haven’t won a flag in 12 years. A period in which we had a generational talent in Franklin for 10 of those.
Next year, as history shows is hard for a team belted in a Grand Final to make it back.
In ‘23 we scraped into the 8 after a no show in ‘22 decider. We’ve been bundled out of the finals series following a grand final without making it back.
So then you a pinning your hopes on 26? Years with a 6 aren’t our friend (96, 06 and 16).
It’s great that we make grand finals as it gives you hope. Just unfortunate that we choke, play injured players and are out coached by the opposition.
