"You don't have to be great to start, but to be great you have to start".:Black Backgrounds/Statler.gif



Quote: Jake the Peg "Who's your money on? (Assuming everyone fit)

2004

Prescott
Best - A winger that was used correctly and all the time.
Barnett - The best centre we have had in years.
Eagar
Raynor
R Horne
Cooke - Not a 6 but played well with Horne.
Logan - A prop that we could do with now.
Swain - Awesome
Carvell
McMenemy - A niggly sh[ii[/it, something we haven't got.
Chester
J Smith - World class and could win a game on his own, a player with flair and a genuine matchwinner. Compared to the crap we have a 13 at the minute.

2009

Tony
Calderwood - Never gets used, but in the 2004 team would of scored as many as best did.
G Horne - A good utility player, should never have a starting centre spot.
Yeaman - Over rated by some, living on his 2006 form.
Raynor
R Horne
Thorman - Again not a SH but playing there. CRAP.
Cusack - A grafter shame we have Dowes for that.
Berrigan - With the correct players around him, he's one of the best in the world. Without the the talent around him, has nothing to work with to show his skill.
Dowes
Manu - Playing too long, our only line breaker.
Tickle
Radford - Waste of space just a plodder.

I know who my money would be on

Quote: The Brother "Fair and good assesment, thats what annoys me though

Through appointing the wrong coaches they have taken us backwards in term of recruitment

We can all see we have no genuine matchwinners in 6,7,13 which are 3 of the most pivotal positions

Adam Dykes would have solved this if he was fit, he was eaxctly what we needed as a number 7 just injury prone'"

My best 6/7/13 lineup would be Toppo/Sterling/Norton now we would win trophies on the back of that.

Quote: TKOAH "And Matt Head
TBH from a pure "fit"ness perspective I think we have the best set of halves in SL. Horne and Thorman are much easier on the eye than Pryce and Long or Burrow and McGuire. We have some excellent strength in depth in this area too - Tommy Lee and Berro aren't too shabby.

Some clubs really struggle in this respect; Brough, Drew for example. Rovers are the worst though - Dobson and Cooke - a double-bagger combo icon_lol.gif icon_wink.gif

All existing and generally known ways to immortality can be divided into four catagories. The way of the Fakir. The way of the Monk. The way of the Yogi. The most honourable being 'The way of the FC' Sebasteeno = CLUELESS:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_14059.jpg

A bit early in the day to be thinking of 'fit' blokes, did you miss something last night icon_confused.gif: icon_wink.gif icon_wink.gif

You should start a chant at the next home game - 'The peformances are not acceptable and the rugby is boring, and you know it is!'

Mine also. Last time we had a side and a coach capable of playing attractive, attacking rugby. Only a horrendous end of season injury crisis stopped us from being realistic challengers that season. icon_sad.gif

We've been on a downhill slide in terms of quality and playing style ever since IMO - despite the CC win in 2005 and GF in 2006.

I would have loved to see what we could have achieved without that horrible run of injuries. Its also interesting to note that despite comments on here about Bomber playing good rugby, at the time people wanted a change as he had been in charge for 5 years and we felt we needed a new coach to progress further.

My recollection is that pretty much everyone wanted him to stay but he wanted to try his hand in the NRL.

Interesting comparison between his time with us and his time with saints. he left saints after one GF win (I think) but left them with the seeds of a great team that went on to dominate the game with a succession of top quality coaches and acquisitions, whereas he left us with the seeds of a top class side which went on to a cup win, appear in a GF and has then been systematically dismantled by a succession of inferior coaches, poor recruitment and incompetent management at the club
