So Ford doesn't get the starring role in a new Grumpy Old Men movie, here's a thread just for him on the positives of 2009. Few or far between as they were, there were some.
At least for me there were two positives in 2009 - Jacob Surjan and Alipate Carlile. The former moved from a fringe player to our best lock down defender, one of the best in the AFL I think. The latter stepped up further from a good 2008 and looks on track to be an AA backman in the next 2 - 3 years at this rate.
I've been as, I won't say guilty as that implies wrong, but 'free' with the criticism as others, but for a novelty if this thread can only have positives (in fact feel free to heavily moderate it). We have plenty of other threads I and others are making our feelings about what's wrong with the club, coaches, players and the rest in.
