This is a brand new midfield group. Last week we were patting ourselves on the back because they thumped the Giants, now we're complaining how bad they are. Lets give them at least 3 games together before writing them off.
Also just saying, I don't want the Swans to be at their best for the first 10 games of the season. 2004 Saints won 10 in a row, 2016 North won their first 9. Did either of them win the cup?
It will take longer than 3 games. Hell, it might even take a whole season. We’re essentially asking a 22 yr old, a 21 yr old and a 20 yr old to take over the reins from three blokes who had 7 All Australian selections between them. I think they’ll get there but it will take some time. All we can do is hope to see signs that Horse is willing to change things up and we’ll be ready to implement those changes more effectively once the new midfield clicks.
