Potential 2013 teams

@snowleopard said:
A part from the obvious issues like attitude, no penalty for non performance, inconsistency, etc the problem we have is with the backup people and by this I don't mean they are not capable, this year they just didn't get picked in run on positions. I can see what Sheens tried to do and this was based on the philosophy that you are better off having all your experienced/best players on the field no matter what position they play. This decision could have be driven by loyalty, or lack of confidence in back up players, stubbornness or all of the above. Any which way you look at it I think that this was the root of most of our problems. Why? If you look at the seasons our key people had and the lack of cohesion in both the defence & attack the of the Team our best were reduced to rank amateurs. Think Benji at half/5/8 Beau at centre/ Fullback/, Robbie at hooker/ half, Chris at centre/ 5/8 Blake centre/ 5/8 Liam hooker/ 2nd row/ 5/8.

So in a round about sort of way I am saying that the key to a top 4 position lies not in how many injuries you have but more in the backup players you have & the confidence you must have to put them in when a key player gets injured and not change the position of the other key players to try & compensate.

I have watched most NYC & Bret games this year and I personally would not have had a problem with giving the likes of Miller/Chisholm/ koribete/ grant/ Simona/ politini/nofaluma a consistent run of more than 10 mins per game.

The bottom line is if we are going to select a 2013 team we need to pick it by position & backup..not just position

Why is that Sheens hasn't realized yet that we NEVER win when he reshuffles everyone.

Think the problem was he panicked and put his faith in his senior players and they couldn't t cope with the changes, lost confidence and dropped the ball. Personally I run a business that spans 4 countries and suffered the same problem…the thing that got my attention was a board of directors meeting where I was given the ultimatum ..figure it out, fix your problems and get the results or bye bye..that was 7 years ago .. I learn't , changed my approach..and am still there ...hope our Tigers board takes a similar approach

This is purley based on if Brent Kite joins us as predicted. No Brent Kite probably replace him with Matty Bell or young guy like Andrew Vela or Kyle Lovett

On paper that team looks great like this year, but will Sheens be able to motivate that side coz he couldn't this year.
