We were young and rebuilding last year. No team had made finals while getting as many games into teenagers as we did last year.You are right.
When Lyon was appointed the narrative from the Saints was clear :
We should be contending. Ratten wasn't ruthless enough..We are under achieving.
We need a more professional and ruthless coach to make us a contender.
After year 1 it was on we are on track..We lost to GWS in a final and we need to inject more pace. GWS are arguably the best team in it We are nearly a contender.
Now suddenly the narrative is oh we are young and rebuilding.
That narrative hasn't changed. Most people just didn't realise it.
