Wanted to make a thread about the positives going forward. Can we keep it to just that guys? What are people's thought's?
1. Injuries. Yep, hahaha, I said injuries. We get a reset, and surely we can't get this destroyed two consecutive years. We have a full off season now for our injured boys to get fit and rehab. Looking forward to Walker / Turbo coming back fit and firing most of all.
2. Rookies. We have uncovered some gems. Schuster looks amazing. Haumole looks the goods. Paseka is improving exponentially. I even think despite what some are saying Hoppa looks like he will improve big time with a full off season.
3. Competition for spots. Hving this kind of season, and exposing the kids to first grade, will hold them in good stead for the NSW Cup season next year. They should dazzle I truly believe.
4. Signings. Aren't we all excited about the signings. If the rumours are true, I actually think Saab could be anything, and jeez, I've been watching Andrew Davey closely, the man has the goods ! Great, fast paced, hole running backrower. Plus other unknowns.
5. Improvement. To me, the bigger improver's have been Paseka, Funa, Keppie & Gosiewski. I think next season, with some intensity, they can improve again exponentially.
6. Veteran leadership. Some players have stepped up big time here. Jake Trbojevic, even saw Curtis revving everyone up before games today. Then add Foran into that mix. Okay, playing hooker and / or utility, but what a mentor for Schuster, who we should have at the club for the next 12-15 years !!
7. I've been told Des support cast is getting a bit of an overhaul by someone at the club. Can't wait to see how that is finalised. Des is never down long, so I could see us battling back next season. With passion and intensity.
8. Off field (centre of excellence, sponsors etc) look to be coming along strong.
9. When battling adversity, you learn the best lessons in life, and this team has experienced many challenging moments. We are re-building, and jeez it was fun the last time Des engineered one.
Anything else guys?
