Maybe true. But our form earlier in the year with honourable losses also meant we were getting better. Winning against the likes of the Eagles and the Power (on/off again) is debatable.
Everyone says we'll easily account for Freo. They're probably going on Freo's track record away and the fact they're now on the bottom. Although I disagree - we're no shoo-in to win that game. It's 15th v 16th. And if Freo play like they did against Brisbane, they're a chance to win. Note: (Sandilands is due to come back in).
edit: - Just learnt about Tarrant's injury. Yeah, I favour Melbourne to win now.
Agree.
Good post. I agree and feel the same. But with regard to your last sentence, in order to build a premiership quality list you sometimes need a few quality players (and leaders).
Therefore, in your last sentence of the previous paragraph........that would then make sense. Do you know what I mean?
Yeah, Jurrah is definitely an excellent catch. We deserve him.
Our priority pick was before the second round last year.
It's been well documented - had Carlton beaten us in 2007 Rd22, we might have Watts, Naitanui & Jurrah.
Agree. Good post.
