Are you not even remotely excited at the prospect of going the whole mini-season unbeaten in the Sack-of-S**t 8's division?

nope, its a Zzzzz-fest for me watching Kallum and co. rip part time defences to shreds when they couldn't be arised turning up for most of the regular season. Of course GH Will try and put some lipstick on this particular pig and paint it as ' back to our best now players are fit..signs of things to come...' etc.. , as you know

I'm not sure what fans expect from GH. There is no way he could of foreseen the way this season was going to go. It was always going to be a transitional year after the retirement of Sir Kev (a year earlier than expected by all accounts), DM's injury and slow recovery, LS slow recovery to form in a struggling side. Load more excuses that have all been touted before
Treat this season as an extraordinary one, have some faith in the club which has been at the top of its game, this year excluded, for 12+ years.
GH is a good CEO and will steer us back to the championship winning club that we know is in hiding

Unfortunately for Baldwinson he thinks he is much better than he actually is.

If he was a chocolate bar he would eat himself.

Pretty much spot on.

he messed up with the hooker situation. he was so sure we had Clarke in the bag that when it fell through late on he had to scrape the, very, bottom of the barrel.

Faloon shouldn't have been bottom of the barrel, player of the year 2 years ago

Although it turned out that he was

Faloon is a perfect example that every NRL starter is certainly not a guaranteed success in SL. Hooker is such an important role in todays game, you can't really get by without one who is looked on as being quality if you think about. Having to scrape around with a bit part in the role like Rob Burrow for most of the year won't cut it.

I'm sure his leaving for the Warriors a few years ago was being bemoaned because he was the future of our pack for the next decade.

Baldwinson has been excellent for fev this season

He should have been given more opportunities this year, especially with how badly the majority of our pack started

Having said that, he needs to knuckle down next preseason and force himself in to the team, hopefully we will have a coach who is willing to back young players by then anyway

Again with the Mac doesn't back young players stuff, I thought that had been rubbished already?

Must of missed that, explain to me how someone who would pick Kirke over Singleton in a cup final, and then Achurch over Keinhorst the following year, (going against the form of the respective players) is someone who backs our accede my products?

He never picks any academy products unless forced by injury, even then he often resorts to square pegs in round holes and playing hybrid positions before giving a young player a chance
The only exception I can think of is Stevie Ward
