Well you can't expect the majority of our supporters to be too pleased with out first 7 games??? After making the GF and in reality improving our list we have gone backwards this year. Midfield was one of our issues last year and we recruited the likes of Archard and O'Brien but if you look at their recent games they can hardly get the ball! Although we have a few players missing, every club has injuries and our 21 each week has been pretty good but we are just spluttering along. Of those missing (Ladhams/Motlop/Wintle/Clarke/Ward/Ryswyk) only Lads could be considered a big loss based on this year's form, although to be fair to Clarke he only played his first game yesterday in the ressies. The rest of that list have struggled big time.
Presently we sit 2 games from the double chance with the next two games being away to the Eagles, who will be twice as strong as they were in Rd 1 and then Sturt at Unley. I can't see North even being considered an outside chance in either of those games so any aspirations we might harbour of a double chance this year can be just about forgotten about as who out of the top 3 presently are going to drop two games (3 if you count percentage) that would give us a silly chance ? We couldn't string together 2 wins a row let alone 3 or so to make any challenge. We will be flat out making the Elimnation Final and to be honest that would be a failure after making the GF last year and with our "alleged high profile" list.
Some tough decisions need to be made at Prospect starting now!
