Can we bring in Joey Walsh

[TheSoaringEagle2023]

 

[God]

Only for next week.

Season over, may aswell.

Our forwards are below standard, except for Guacca and Bully, but I've got no brilliant suggestions for how the pack could be improved this season.
However, we have got to change our halfback and five-eight combination. For me Brooks has been a failure and must be relegated. TT2 is wasted on the wing. He is a big guy but without the necessary pace, and I believe he has played 5/8 before, so what have we got to lose by playing him there?
I'd try him with DCE at half, initially. If that didn't work then give Walsh a try.
This season is shot, so let's starting planning for 2026.

I would swap Shmole to the left to at least give Brooks a real option to play with. A mid game switch might shake things up and add an element of unpredictability.
Burbo really doesn't offer Brooks a lot to work with and is governed by this.

Our play is so predictable I could even tell you what DCE was going to do before he did it. Also the quality of ball Shomle gets is rubbish, always from a standing start.

You can see how Flanno and Des coach/defend against us. Just slide out hard early to stack the extra man.
This is so frustrating as we actually can’t change how we play and go up the middle when we can’t go around them. We just do the same Sh*t over and over until full time.

So many issues to address. I am now fully underwhelmed with Seibs and the “systems” he has in place. We can’t weather any “chaos” and we don’t actually know how to use our “weapons” at all.

Bully is now the only decent forward in the squad and we have a hooker that can only tackle and can’t bring our rubbish middles into the ball.

Saab can’t catch and is ment to be an aerial specialist.

As you see in just ranting and over it this year. Bring on 2028 when we might have some money to play with and hopefully a new coaching staff.
