Hey all,
We've achieved what no team has done before and won from 0-5 or worse to make finals. That should be celebrated.
I do think we need a bit of a reality check however, only two teams have won the grand final from 5th-8th, I think its cool to dream that we can make the grand final and even win it but the reality is it is unlikely. We shouldnt be premiership favourites now and if we crash out early in the finals what the lads have already achieved should not be undersold either which will probably happen.
If we can make a preliminary final ideally not against the Crows I think that would be a pretty remarkable effort from them and theyd be a lot to take away from this year for the kids and next year Id anticipate a real crack at the title.
I wouldnt be booking grand final accomodation at this stage though, booked it and flights at half time v the Cats last year.
