Poll: Is it too early to call "Season Over?"
- Thread starter Ian4
- Start date
I think we as supporters need to think about adjusting back to reality. I don't think we can win the premiership, but seasons are about more than that. We'll watch some kids come up, some old timers play their hardest as they finish their stellar careers. I still remember when being mid field was fun, as we gradually improved with new stars and admittedly plenty of false dawns. I think the rebuild has started, but it's going to be a little organic. We can't throw the baby out with the bathwater, when we've only got one young top-10 pick we recruited in the whole squad.
So the season isn't over. Making finals would be a success. If we have Dusty back and find some form, we might even be dangerous if we can get there. But it's certainly not going to be like the past 4-5 years, that fantasy is finished.

If we can't beat Adelaide, then West Coast (a), Collingwood, Hawthorn and Essendon are 50/50 at best.
I'm still confident that we play finals this year.
We are actually playing a lot better than last year.
It will depend on the health of our stars.

GONE!
We are currently in that no mans land list wise. Champions too old and youth not experienced enough. The gulf of quality 25-28 year olds is where it will hurt us with that consistency we will need to win enough games to make finals.

Need at least one or two elite mids in the next draft. Trading for one might even be the go.
Should have done that last draft. We got Sonsie. Probably would have been nice to grab another. Isn't this year a KPP draft?
Been saying this for a few years without tooting my own horn but I wasnt too chuffed about Ben Hobbs debut and I was of the opinion we should have taken him last year.
If we neglect mids again then we will just be in a worse position next year.
A good year can differ,with Tigers currently,if we finish 10 th but have potential stars like Clarke, Banks, Sonsie, Brown, Gibcus added to other realitively young players plus lots of cap space,then it is advancement.
Would anyone here trade Balta, Gibcus for Ward, Callaghan,
I wouldn't as young kps are gold,and finding mids much much easier,tigers picking up the hard bits first when available,right call

I think we should be looking at underdeveloping / under exposed mids at other clubs. Based on what we saw at the Lions, if you told me Ben Keays would be averaging 31 disposals , 6 tackles and 6 clearances a game at the Crows I would have slapped you for being silly. We just need to unearth a bloke like this and we are on our way
Add that Dimma still hasn’t adapted for he rules and doesn’t know how to incorporate that will our system
I remember in the grand final years that I was confidant if were less than five goals down at 3/4 time, that we would run over the top of any side and win.
This year other teams are running over the top of us.
Not sure why?

Think winning a final would constitute a successful season coming from where we finished last year.
Winning 2 finals would be a dream.
Winning the Premiership?
2017 deja vu
