Nice post Sheik.
Like you I'm angry but optimistic.
I said at the start of the year what I wanted and that was, competitive efforts against the big guns Geelong, Hawks, Pies, Sydney, Freo, and now Port.
I think we play all these guys in the remaining games.
Frankly I'm sick of relying on our annual Richmond cook-out. It's simply not enough.
MM mistakes in failing to have the team prepped for the start of the season notwithstanding, we have the opportunity to put in big hearted efforts against the best in the business and I'm hopeful that we can make some fundamental improvements.
it's one of the reasons i had hoped we'd beat the easy beats sides because then we might not take the easy option and send people in for surgery and effectively give the season away.
The positive signs in the Cats game was that we came back from 4 goals down.
Who on this site thought we'd roll over and get bunted in the behind after that? I sure did, but they didn't, they kept fighting and we should have got the chockies.
So, this is MM's challenge. Show that your capable of turning, what is now considered an average list, into a hungry competitive unit.
Starts this week on the big stage against the reigning premiers and the side that always makes us look second rate.
Are you good enough Mick?
