Quote: Hangerman2 "We are certainly not 'too good to go down' even with our first choice team we lack creativity and have ageing/nowhere near good enough halfbacks. If things dont change i see us not even making the million pound game, we are the worst team in the competition by some distance with the team we have on the field at the moment. The players coming back will improve us for sure, but not in the key halfback area. We are in real trouble, make no mistake.'"
Oh i thoroughly agree, I am in no doubt about how difficult the middle 8 comp will be. Our main hope is for our players to be a lot fitter by then than they are now, and there are those who say forget about this league, we need to be thinking and preparing for those playoff's now.
I also agree with you about halfbacks, Brough has been one of the best buys at the club for many a long year, and has won us many a game almost on his own, However he has been whoefully short of a partner for much of that time which has resulted in everything going through him, and he may be as much to blame for that as anybody.
The answer though is not to keep signing players who have no track record ( at least Brough was a proven winner ) even if he is now well past his best, but hey ho in the affairs of the Giants we are in the wishing and hoping category and lets hope some of that comes about by the time we are in the fight for survival.
