the Future

[RED STRIPE MAGIC]

the future looks bright my friends. Even theo we lost most of the games we played this we we still looked very very dangerous. we are a young team and we are going to be a team which all club would not want to play against from now and the next 10 years.

You must be exposed to too many Tigers supporters.

Not that I can be bothered repeating my opnion again, but in a nutshell, our list is in much better shape than at least 6 other sides...and of a higher quality too.

So, Im predicting 10th will be our absolute lowest position we'll finish in next season. Ill even go as far as saying, our second half of the year will be far greater than our first...

Id suggest you throw $50 on us making the 8 next season...bet that'll change your perception quickly...

You're kidding yourself right? With a full list to pick from you are better than Carlton, Maybe North but not by alot and Brisbane who have lost 90% of their list. Hawthorns youth is twice as good as yours, Port are alrady on the rise, Geelong should have played finals and Richmond have a team good enough to make 9th spot, something you wont do. Lloyd is undoubtably a star, however, him coming back with a few others doesn't take you up to just missing out on the finals or even more unrealistically, making them. 10th is optimistic, but prboably the best you'll get. You're dreaming if you think you can make the finals.

So was Adelaide in 05 and Collingwood last year, you never know.

We matched it with Collingwood last year, without Lloyd, and had close losses to the Bulldogs, both made the finals.

Not saying we're a huge chance but there's definately a possibilty

8 teams can and the others can't. I make it 50/50

terrible grammar aside, that's just ridiculous. football cycles don't last 10 years so it's pointless to even mention it. i don't recall us looking "very very dangerous" and no team will be fearing us in the near future.

Here we go again...Geelong and Richmond?? Barely trouble their finals opponents and from end to end, we do look better on paper. Geelong lack a forward option for starters. Not to mention, theyre their own worst enemy as the H & A season ends. Richmond?? Well, they may as well shut up shop by May as they self destruct every year consistently. Richmond have a team good enough?? you're kidding yourself right there. whats the point in aspiring to finish 9th and claming to be good enough?? We have a side capable of making 9th also and last I checked, 8th follows 9th ascending the ladder

What about Heath Hocking - showed a fair bit in the practice matches and the couple of reserve games he played. I would pick him up in the draft as our last pick rather that leave him on a rookie list. The kid can play
