I've just about had it with him. Can't find the footy. Caught with the ball when he does or missed gettable goals

Cue a Bont is overrated call. Lol

Billings isn't fit to tie Bonts shoelaces in terms of being a footballer.

most were below average tonight especially the coach. Not tagging Mitchell from the bounce, makes little sense?
The back went off the boil at the end again which was a bit disappointing but damage done by then
our stars e.g. Gresh and Billing suck at present they need to go to sandy to get form back. Jack Steven made a fair few errors tonight which cost us and I know PAddy has his fans but I thought he didn't do a lot. He did some things but not enough.
And Membry. I thought I would never see a worse shot at goal than Bruce last year but WTF. Terrible tonight.
Off to get more Bourbon

You know why Gresh and Billings will get form back at Sandy? Because they will be coached differently and be able to play somewhat naturally. Until they get a recall

I'll be the first to put my hand up and say Jack isn't "hard", but he never was. He was picked to be some icing. His goalkicking is not working, I admit that also. But I don't think our game affords him the opportunity to be the player he was drafted to be.

He looks so disinterested it isn't funny. We may get something for him, but the club that allows him to play his natural game, and supports it, will be the winner.

Let's hope we find a way

I know we have an oversupply of half back flankers and back pockets BUT
Billings needs to sent into the back line.
He will learn desperation
If he does not run down his opponent then he will be exposed each time as the guy letting the team down.
If he continues to be sloppy in his disposal then as the ball comes straight back he will have to clean up his own mess.
And his inability to kick straight for goal will not dishearten the rest of team who have been working so hard to give the chances.

The kid has talent to burn but no confidence. Its up to the coaches to support him. Run him off half back? Play him in the center? Give him a run with role? Let him play on the wing supporting the defence? Give him a challenge and purpose. We need him to develop into the player he can be.

Let him regain his confidence at Sandy
