Surely with the list we have we are capable of playing finals
This year we could of played finals if they were more composed or mentally tough enough to finish off games
That will come with maturity and hopefully we pick up some good players in off season who also have leadership qualities ie: Ivan and to a different degree but certainly no lesser Morris.
Barring injuries, I would expect us to "close the gap" on teams like Geelong, Carlton, Collingwood
To answer your question? if we dont make finals barring serious injury then big questions will be asked.
