Little green sprouts.

And now... And...

Now, they're just not popping as fast as you'd like.

There are other competing factors.

Other teams get better.

You don't get team on a bad day and before you know it, you haven't won a game at this stage in the career, in this season, sorry.

Big picture, not concerned.

They remind me of a lot of the Giants of 2013.

We won two games in 2012.

And we all thought, oh, maybe we'll win six or seven the next year.

We won one.

It was in round 17.

That was as tough as it gets.

But then we won six, then we won 11, and away we went.

But, yeah, football's not linear.

Richmond need to get scrapping.

It's going to be a tough weekend this week with a few of their injuries too.

Well, the thing about Richmond is they'll be saying to themselves, well, look what Melbourne did to Essendon.

And then you'd be like, there's some hope.

Then if you actually ask yourself where the ceiling is and you look what they did to Brisbane and Gold Coast, you start to think to yourself, wow, this is seriously impressive.
