Normally agree with a lot of things , but not this one ....... Have said before need someone completely outside the club that can't be influenced by the people already there ....... Passion he has , loyalty he has , but to be coach long term not quite sure ........ I hope he proves me wrong if given the job ....... But we don't want to make the same mistakes they have made over the last 10 years or so .......

Who is your choice. Mine was a guy outside the box with heaps of coaching under his belt. But seems Michael Chieka is not even in the frame.

Sloan on that tackle was different, his angle of approach to blokes going down the sideline at times has been a little off and he has been stepped inside a bit too regularly. Seemed to get his positioning/timing right on that one yesterday and made the tackle. Was good.

He has learnt thats all you can ask of any player learn by your mistakes and don't keep making them

But where was his play making jo. He is wearing #7 on his back. I will admit the ball movement was superior to anything else this season but no line break/ assist or try assist next to K F's name. Is it not the done thing to promote Flegg players before Ressies, if it is there are two halves there, Hodges and McLaren that have virtually taken them to the top of the table. I can tell you now both are superior in management/awareness skill than our current pair.

Agree, but you simply cannot rush through your 6 and 7 from juniors to ressies to 1sts. It is in my personal view that it would do no justice or be any benefit to those players or the club.

Patience is a virtue, look at the unfortunate injury to our next big thing Reed, I said openly that he was just not physically ready for 1st grade on a weekly basis.

Further I have never regarded Flanagan as a genuine 7.

21s are not exactly juniors. Flegg seems the be like the poor cousin, not given a lot of time. But I have watched every on of our games for past two yrs and there are some good players, specially the roster this yr. Dont ignore the best of these as they could well play FG down the track. Past seasons there has been Lyric, Charlie,Jesse, TPH and Kade Reed of course. This season alone we have the promising Daniel and Creighton Meafou, the halves I mentioned, Lucas Borg and a prop named Carmichael. All definitely Ressies standard..

A crop of those comprise the Meafou brothers, Lyric and Charlie, Kade Reed too.

Agree in my personal experiences it is easier to introduce backs into 1sts than play makers or forwards but that's just my view

I thought Atkinson played well. Kyle was our worst by far yet again.

Just how good is this forward pack going to be next year? It's already pretty fuking good! Cook will be a big loss with the way he is playing but just ask that +*?(%$# Donkeys back up hooker/half, at the age Cook is now, his form might go downhill very fast.

How bad was that Donkeys back up hooker/half? I doubt they give him another year.

I just don't understand why Feagai doesn't play like that more often. In fact, he does it once a year for Donkey's games. He didn't do anything which requires great talent. Just went in looking for work and used his size to run hard and make a lot of metres. Also stayed in his wing in defence. That was where the Donkeys went wrong. Kept trying to go around our wingers, expecting them to rush in 20 metres in order to tackle thin air but they didn't and the Donkey's were turned around again and again.
