After watching that game last night, it took me back to 2005, and how our season ended up panning out that year, and thinking the similarities are there with the current season
We have had a great start to this season under Des all things considered and are punching well above our weight to sit up in the top half of the table, back in 05, we led the comp after 7 weeks, then went up to Suncorp, and the bubble was burst as Brett Stewart had a nightmare under the high ball and we got blown apart, and from there the season stuttered along and we ended up falling into the finals and out in week 1.
Last night may have been the start of our up and down stutter, we will have to wait and see how that plays out. But what it hopefully does lead into and follow the same pattern is that Des had put the foundations in place for the years to come, and like then, we are in a position to keep adding pieces to our team to keep moving up the table each season
