Reckon that'll be their default even if we're 3-3 after R6. Amazing list, no weaknesses, talent everywhere........no excuses. Bullshit.

As I said above, a couple, maybe a few more wins is an improvement and probably acceptable - depending on how that relates to the broader competition. And that's not even accounting for the fixture, how it's perceived at the start of the year, the middle, and the end irrespective of who and where you play teams in their respective cycles versus yours.

Everyone is going batshit crazy over Carlton and GWS but they each won one more game and respectively had ~+4.5% and ~-1.5% percentage versus us at the end of the home and away season. Credit to them for making their finals count, but we were disastrous and they were amazing.......

Knowing that it's likely we'll be middling, maybe a bit better, maybe capable of surprising, or maybe capable of falling short, I just hope people can keep their shit together.
