2023 who do we blood in

[eagleron]

Well we can’t attract anyone else so may as well !!

I reckon they'd show a lot more enthusiasm and effort than most of the current lot but don't expect our coach to think outside the box, they didn't have boxes when he learnt his trade

I don't know much about these three but they have the killer look. I like it.

Well they've all got mo's so that's a good start

 

[eagleron]

What was impressive was his constant effort. Many of our first grade team would do well to learn from him.

He's got the added pressure of expectation, that can be a good thing or a bad thing but you'll always know that he's giving 100% as a result of it though

That's the thing mate. Reminds me of the rough days, where fans wanted to grip onto players who were decent, because the others are crap.

But that's how you have massive periods of mediocrity. See Tigers , Titans, Dogs and others.

We need to set the bar way higher, and go the route we did. We systematically brought in :

Ben Kennedy
Brent Kite
Steven Bell
Matt Orford
Jamie Lyon
Josh Perry

At the moment we are treading water. We are trying to sustain a very average roster , and hold to decent players (i.e. Croker at Hooker). To get to a GF, we need to be better right across the park.

It's the old adage - we are celebrating mediocrity. Fans are soaking up, and even celebrating the mediocrity. We need to lose that mentality and out if respect for that jersey, demand something better.

We need to stop making excuses. Excuses for Des. Excuses for Mestrov. Excuses for Penn. Excuses for poor behaviour / breaking the law. Excuses as to why they shouldn't play. STOP THE ****ING EXCUSES, or leave the job , and give it to someone who doesn't use them.

Bring Siebold in, let him sack whoever the **** he wants, from staff to players. Soup said we were an embarrassment the other day, and even I defended the place, but maybe, just maybe he was right.

Mediocrity has become our norm,we celebrate the poorest of winning performances (as few as they are)as though they were major semi final victories, in a word, we've become beige

Seibold, oh dear

Seibold, oh dear

My thoughts Sielbold is a one season wonder

 

[349]

Lawton return from injury as 9 backup and regular 14, Tommy back, say we need another Prop and a half backup. Jake Clifford could be of interest at the right price.

 

[CRPSI eagle]

I have heard this guy called Turbo is pretty good

Over paid, injury prone and only player 10 games every year!
No thanks.

 

[Under the Sticks]

Blood the calves!

 

[Chip and Chase]

I'd like to see Weekes get some game time before end of year if possible. Give him a crack at 1 and put Ruebs back on wing to cover Saab.

May as well give one of the fringe forwards a go like Fifita and Tuitavake. Just play them off the bench - assuming they aren't injured. Could blood one of them each week. Season is gone no use wasting the remaining games on Davey.
