I have been the biggest critics of our backs for good reason but with a bit of luck with injuries and some common ****ing sense it’s fixable.
Today was awful though full of effort but the one big positive is that our young forwards, Keppie, Psseka and Guaca have a ton of promise to throw on top of Marty AFB Jake Sirro and Fainu.
The backs are a road crash but it would not be too difficult with a bit of luck to see a very dangerous backline of
DCE
Cust
Hoppa
Walker
Suli
Johnstone
Turbot
With a bench featuring
Paseka
Shuster
Guaca
Keppie
To do that requires
1.an ounce of luck with injuries
2. a very good coach( which we have ) to finally address the fact that the game now requires speed and give the young lads a chance in favour of conservatism
3. the club to move on some fringe players and get the experienced speedy Johnstone like player we are crying out for out wide and provide back up to Tommy while Hoppa develops
4. DCE to have a long hard look at his game management. ( he has every skill - knuckle down !!)
That’s not a seriously difficult shopping list( maybe throw in a hard nut second rower) and that side will mix it with anyone out there.
