Re-name the comp The Dead End NSW Cup.
These guys could play out of their skin and it wouldnt matter. In reserve grade they stay.
Yeah thats what Simpkin, BJ and AJ say.....oh hang on.
Ignore it if you like but guys like madden, Tuki, Cini etc beg to differ.
We have some real talent in reserves but we are back at the Sheens days where only 2/3rds of the squad are considered 'good enough.
Guys in first would have to sleep with the coaches wife to be dropped.
Madden isnt better than Brooks, Cini cant tackle. Tuki its a matter of time.
Madden will end up proving he can control a game and lead a team around better than Brooks.
He might "end up" proving that. When he does, he can replace Brooks. We are not there yet.
Cini can tackle and has a real knack of making the right decision. He seems more clutch than most of our backs.
Ive seen his games this year and his defence isnt good. He may not be far off, simply because our outside backs are so bad, but the fact is, he is not there yet.
Tuki doesnt need time he needs an opportunity. One he isnt getting while the coach tries to appease the current playing squad. Most of whom are letting him down. (suspension obviously lets the coach of the hook this week)
Tuki will get there, he is VERY young and our pack isnt ***our biggest*** problem at the moment.
Sorry to break it to you but our pack is a massive problem.
and yet its not our biggest problem. See how it works?
How many players would you suggest it is a good idea to replace in a week and yet maintain some cohesion?
The banter had been fun but discussing accountability with a fan like you is poitnless
