Not!

Another +15 pages of Signing Suggestions & Rumours ….. you guys are just brilliant in recycled waffle. Nothing will change until we get few key positions that we so obviously lack, filled and a few wins on the board and then the sun will shine again.

He is the only big bodied player with some full back experience that can provide some sort of spark at the back for us. Not a perfect choice on many fronts particularly his lazy defence but worth a try. Bula will become an option down the line but for now our other two alternatives (Laurie and...

Mate … we all dislike him but believe me Moses is the only currently quality available answer. But I think that bird has well and truly flown.

Should be traded with WT top up $s. Yes you can see that the guy just does not want to play for WT.

I’m not saying that this will happen ….. but there are a lot of examples in history of team sport where new coaching staff and new playing group start their season as an absolute train wreck. And then things somehow slowly but surely start to gel and confidence brings success. No it may not...

He was trying …. maybe too hard and definitely overthinking stuff. But the team around him was also not responding. No one had any spark, there were no hole runners or players providing any worthwhile straight line attacking options. And for a team that’s supposed to be taught to promote the...

I suppose Clive Churchill and Norm Provan also should rate a mention as well. As for the rest …. yes I agree with you that remaining top tear coaches were at best 2nd tear honest players. As for Benji Farrah coaching combo we will need to wait and see. I have my fears as I’m running out of...

Definitely not showing any improvement at the moment but let’s face it most of the team are training like Tarzan but playing like Jane.

Yep ,,,, and that’s unlikely to be sorted short term. I would try Laurie at 5/8 just to see if there’s any value there. Brooks should remain there for at lease another 3-4 games and if he doesn’t produce anything further he will have to be turned loose. We definitely need someone with...

Fulton, Maninga etc etc etc

This may be close I suppose but really today was a new low for me.

It’s nice that KOE boys had a good win last weekend but I think that I’ll just wait it out about mid year to see if the team and some of these “early risers” can maintain this early form before passing my judgement.

I think the way our game is evolving, with the current rules in place, is that speed at the ruck and edges is essential. Although big forwards are still needed their low engine capacity and tendency to get in way of attacking play and waste tackles means that some coaches are opting for more...

Not quite sure what Mr Churchill is on about with his cryptic comments but it would be more helpful to add some worthwhile historic context ….. so …, In February and March 2014, Russia invaded and subsequently annexed the Crimean Peninsula, taking it from Ukraine. This event took place in the...

Well after preparing last three to suit their spinners that got them 2:1 lead they provide one that guarantees a draw.

I think our coaching staff will be keen to provide our young juniors with opportunity to show what they can do at first grade level. It’s really a continuation of strategy adopted by Sheens after Madge left the building. This approach may not work every time or bring us many wins but it’s the...

Wow! Gee thanks for joining up to give us your brilliant assessment. Looking forward to your next post.
