There are good times ahead.

These are the reasons to be positive, best we have looked in years, all we need is a half decent halves combo and we will be a force. This doesn't include other talented juniors as well.

Yep, all we need to do is find about 4 more quality forwards as well as fill the 3 most difficult roster positions 6/7/13 with top end talent. All at a time when anyone of known quality is contracted.
Exciting times indeed.
 
And our new recruitment guy has been asleep in his office chair for a month.
The thing with Fulton is he has made a name for himself at identifying junior talent. He recruited pretty much the entire undefeated Sea Eagles Harold Mats team.
He has not shown an ability to recruit established first graders. Perhaps he can but It has actually never been his role. IMO if we are looking to him to solve our issues in first grade, then we are looking to the wrong bloke.
 
The good news is he’s just joined a club that has a bad reputation with players and only has half a spine, so we’ll know within 6 months whether he’s any chop.
Is he even the guy in charge of our first grade team?
I can see how this plays out. We struggle to recruit any quality first graders, because none available and why would they want to risk their career by coming here. The club and fans hold Fulton responsible. After wasting 2 years achieving nothing here, he leaves for another club and recruits the a new wave of junior talent that will come through together ensuring long term success at his new club, because that is his skill set, not first grade list management.

Love the positivity.

At this type of juncture, it's all perspective. There are objective negatives and objective positives, so it's the areas you choose to focus on I guess.

But, more importantly, how good is it having Ice Pole in our team.

I’ve been told that he is a pretty savvy with negotiations not dragging on
No idea if true or not just a comment from a fellow spectator at local footy
