If this message was conveyed in the 2016 off-season there would be no problem whatsoever. The reactive nature of this position is what pisses me off. Granty has basically confirmed that the club has been lying to its members and the wider footy community for the last 18 months.
Clubs never come out and say we will lose games for two years and have a tilt in 2019.

I am being realistic with what has happened this year.

I am sure the results so far would have been different if Libba, Morris, Picken, Adams, Clay, Redpath and Trengove (all games) were all available for the season to date.

Yes we have played at times up to 6 players with less than 10 games and most of those players have shown ability and earned their spot, but you can't expect them to be world beaters.
