Positives Thread

[The better Robbo]

Funa is solid and will improve but he needs more speed.

I think he is quite fast but the fatigue kicks in when as not used to running so far each game and his legs are burnt out.

 

[Shoe1]

What has Des done to Jake T... he is nowhere near the attacking force he was.... Harper, way out of his depth....oooops sorry i crashed the positive thread🙂🙂🙂

Take your negativity elsewhere!!! (To another thread, I’ll meet you there)

 

[StuBoot]

As long as it is NOT centre

Hey, he's played better there than some of the others that have.

 

[The Who]

Positive for 2020: We kept our record intact for avoiding the wooden spoon.
Positive for 2021: I don't think the Dogs will improve enough to endanger our record.

Hey, he's played better there than some of the others that have.

Are you serious, NEVER passed the ball outside, ALWAYS stepped inside. Watch the replays, unfortunately I have. Drived me insane! I am officially an acholic, My family hates me.

We are back under the radar next year?

Paseka, Funa, Schuster, Harper & Olakau'atu all look the goods.

Turbo & Walker back fully fit & Foran taking some of the pressure off DCE next year.

Whoever we pick up in the offseason e.g. Davey, Saab, etc.

Another positive

If Des thought any of this was acceptable he would not have cut so many players

If you smoke crack or meth everything is looking good for next season.

Positives: We are addressing our biggest problem of not having enough playmakers in 2020 by getting rid of levi, promoting Schuster and bringing in Keiran Foran. Now just need to sort the starting or bench hooker position out. Unless Fainu is let off than Cust or a signing, which is better than 2020's options of Croker and Levi.

Also Olakautau while eventually secure a place in the 17 (maybe in the 11 jersey) and although im skeptical of Walker we get to see Walker and Suli (and our whole backline) given a chance to get involved and cause some damage due to actually having playmakers in our team.

It's kind of a domino effect: If there are no quality playmakers/organisers in attack --> No good ball to backline and forward-concentrated gameplan of one-out plays --> Fatigued forwards and unmotivated/frustrated backline --> Less resilience and less confidence when attacking (which I think badly affected dce this year)

If schuster and foran stay fit, and to a lesser extent trbo, we'll become very competitive again. Defence should be a big focus as well although I think that will click again.

Even with Covid around, we had 800 more members in 2020 than in 2019. Here’s hoping 2021 we go up again.

Positive - We seem to be getting into a rhythm...

2016 - Bad
2017 - Good
2018 - Bad
2019 - Good
2020 - Bad

2021 should be a good year.

 

[Cliffymagic]

Turbo. Walker. Dce. Shuster. Fainu. Foran. Would love to see all these guys in the same team. That's some options right there. Dammmm. Wouldn't be reliying on dce doin all the attack. Just need to fix the defence.

 

[EOL now nesting on the GC]

While I'm not casting judgement the biggest positive would be JDB winning his case and the no fault standdown disappearing before Christmas.
We would then have MF back round 1 with Foran the no.14 utility. Schuster in at 6 but could play 13 and or 3/4 if required. DW back at centre.

Des was very disappointed . He does not drop the balls and miss the tackles . Players he put his faith in let him and our great club down.
Des ...
PEOPLE ARE GOING TO SAY YOU HAD KEY PLAYERS OUT AND YOU HAD INJURIES
BUT THE PLAYER YOU PUT OUT THERE YOU EXPECT TO MAKE THOSE AND TO EXECUTE THOSE THINGS
FORM THAT POINTS IT BEEN DISAPPOINTING AND FRUSTRATING
