Well, this is my first time on the forum after reading for a while, so here goes.
The obvious disapointments for me; injuries to Garland, Aussie, Blease, Strauss. Would have loved to see the former 2 build on their great seasons, and would have loved to see the latter 2 just get on the park for the Dees.
But i reckon it'd have to be this whole bloody tanking debate. It just goes on, and on, and on....now, I see the value of Scully+Trengove/Butcher, and I'd love to have them at the club. But I want the Dees to win, so badly. I can't bring myself to barrack for "team tank". Why can't we just leave it at the fact that if we are not good enough, we will get two picks, and if we are good enough to win 5 games (which I dont think we are), we don't need pikcs 1 and 2 or whatever. The Footy Dept are going to stop at nothing to win; so be it. Nothing will change that. And I cant stand when people go on about being thrashed so our percentage is worse than Freo or what ever. I can see the tanking argument, I respect it, but thats too far. This debate has been the real disapointment for me.
