Agree with this.Really pleased with the effort and attitude the boys have shown this season. Coming back to win from way behind against Adelaide and then last minute wins against Sydney and Hawthorn. When you think about it, only the West Coast game was a really poor performance (and every team has had one or two of those). This seems to be a team with a lot of character, and they might not make the top 8 this year but I feel more optimistic about the future than I did in 2022.
Bring on the Muts.
As I said at the time, I feared the effort in the heat of the Crows game was going to drain the guys for the trip west - plus losing 3 top line mids/HBF - and adversely impact that game outcome. Add in losing Wehr in the second quarter. But as you say, apart from that game (and even then, the boys fought back to par the third & fourth quarters) there's a lot more to be optimistic about.
