Can't agree with this philosophy.
Small forwards are not our issue, and bringing in a loose cannon is not what the squad needs.

He's not a small forward, he's a goal kicking utility so would be hand as a stop-gap whilst the walking wounded from the forward line do their rehab and then could be a handy inclusion in the midfield and possibly a good replacement for Billings and Buttler.Banger9798 wrote: ↑Wed 18 Jan 2023 11:18amCan't agree with this philosophy.

What happened to your philosophy from last year? Quoting you here:
Do think he decided against us because we are rebuilding and wanted to play finals?
Who is going to be the new list manager no to Trout please please there has to be someone better

All I read (with a modicum of footy nous) expect us mid table or taking a step backwards to go forward with a new coach/game plan etc
It’s only those with some weird hatred for corporate Australia and consultants that keep sticking the knives into Bassat/club.
Again, do you think Bassatt and Board erred in sacking cuddles and replacing him with Lyon??
I mean….if we are going to run the same troll argument it’s only fair we ask you the question again…
What are your thoughts on this 3 second rule we've been training and our current skill level, any concerns?
Agree nah…SaintPav wrote: ↑Wed 18 Jan 2023 10:09amErr. Yeah, nah.B.M wrote: ↑Wed 18 Jan 2023 10:00am I think we can play finals.
And I’d rather that and go watch 12-13 wins this season than ‘go backwards’ and win 6-8.
Good run with injury and there is no reason why we can’t compete strongly.
We won 11 last season - with what you say was a terrible coach. Therefore, if I listen to experts on here who think the coach is the No1 driver for success - we should win 15 and be top 4.
Especially since our new coach is RTB - the best non premiership coach ever!!!

Just imagine if we get stack and he goes off the rails while at the saints the site would go crazy and everyone would say typical saints bla bla bla lets not put our selves in that saturation.
100% agree. It appears there's a few that want their opinions on their beliefs / results from training to be acknowledged. Let's leave this as training observations & perhaps begin a thread with questions about those observations.DJ Higgins wrote: ↑Wed 18 Jan 2023 6:10pm Out of interest would it possible for someone to post a report about training.

Not going over this again it’s a Training report thread
That's not at all a bad idea, it's what occurs in a lot of other footbal codes, where if a key position player is injured they bring in someone from outside the club to fill the void until said player becomes available again. In the EPL and other European football comps clubs often will lease out a player who can't get a game to another team for specified periods.saynta wrote: ↑Fri 20 Jan 2023 12:47pm From a guy over on B F.
The ruck situation is a worry. Realistically, we only have Marshall as a genuine ruckman at the moment. As mentioned earlier, Heath is just not ready yet. I think we should use our second lists spot t find a back up ruckman. Paddy Ryder is not the craziest of ideas (just get him in to play 8-10 games) or even someone like a Ben McEvoy (as back up for 8-10 games if needed)."
