Some of you may have already felt this too.
But looking through the history pages of the AFL on wikipedia, old Herald Sun stories etc.
I read about the resurgence of football clubs at the bottom rung, that are poised to follow the likes of Brissy Bears and Fitzroy.
I'm excited to see a new era dawn for the club, and with it, new faces and young generations being proud again to be supporters.
I look forward to teaching my kids as they get to that curious age, about the dark days, what happened, what it felt like.
And hopefully the joy that's to come.
Anyone else feel this excitement and optimism..
