Despite St Kilda’s shaky 0-2 start to the season, Jimmy Bartel remains optimistic about the team’s trajectory. 

He argues despite their winless first two games, it’s less a sign of long-term failure and more a result of being “disjointed” due to the introduction of new players and adjusting roles. 

“I’m not concerned about the Saints yet, they’ve got to click into gear,” Bartel said on 3AW Football.
