The club is going through a change. They did the right thing by bringing in a fresh CEO and getting rid of the deadwood in Harrison, McDonnell, Collis, Morris, Halatau etc. The only problem is theyve done nothing to make the place better.
The Bulldogs brought in Greenberg who had fresh ideas and a passion to change the club's culture and after years of crap, got rid of their coach and majority of the deadwood players but they brought in quality players to replace the holes, something we're not doing. The Tigers seem very stale at the moment and to me it looks like the club isnt keeping up with the changing game.
For starters the combination of
1\. Gallant
6\. Benji
7\. Moltzen
9\. Farah
would provide stability with our main playmakers playing in their proper positions.
We need to have vision going into next season of who our 1,6,7,9 will be. Over the off season there was the behind the scene doco on Fox Sports .. something like Rugby League Summer Time or whatever, and they interviewed John Morris who said he was training in the off season as a utility, and wadda ya know, the first half of the year he's in the #6\. That lack of preparation and cohesion was evident the first half of the year, Benji was playing erratically, balls were being thrown into touch, tries were being bombed left right and centre. If we can get the 1,6,7,9 combination above to gel together for the WHOLE off season then I think we'll have a bright 2010.
