Big picture guys - I was again pleased with what I saw. The kids are amazingly good considering our early into their career they are.
What do we expect to see?
Had 9 players under 21 and went down by under 5 goals to a team who beat hawks by a record margin - all this the next week after playing in hard terrible condition that must have taxed our kids young bodies. How did essendon fare this week?
We had 8 kids in this match with the most experienced having 12 games to their name. They all played in one game yet too many expect to see a stellar performance.
Think many need to lower their expectations - either your commited to the rebuild or your not. If your commited you have to be pleased with what your seeing.
I know I am.
