Yes. There's no doubt that Neeld has had the toughest introduction to senior coaching possible (so far). And if it is true that what doesn't kill you only makes you stronger, then perhaps we'll have a lot to look forward to.
I can't remember which ex player/coach said it (Roos? Wallace?), but if we trade well, pick up some wise FAs and select the best draft youngsters, we could turn around quickly.
Perhaps we are only a half doz key players and 12 mths away from finals footy???
IMO we have a good coaching team, good facilities and no debt. Neeld will get the best out of the players, but it will take longer than one season.
Edit: spel.
