The spine of our team

[Guest]

The storm showed us on sunday on what a successful team is built on. The so called spine of the team the 1,6,7 and 9 positions are the nucleus of a good team and then you have no frill forwards who hit up all day and can defend and backs who are quick and also can defend. Every one of us know this except it seems brian smith.

Our spine is the worst in the comp and it wont get any better until changes are made to this set up. this is the main problem with our team. We have a fullback who was a legend however the game has passed him bye, you need a fullback who can break the line, be a ball Player and also a good support player. We have a 7 who cannot set up an attack or ever take the line on. Our hooker is a solid defender however is too slow from dummy half. I dont know what i can say about braith as he really doesnt do or offer us anything. If pearce really doesnt get any better next year could see mortimer at 6 and moloney at 7.

We have a great five eight coming next year so we need to concentrate on the other postions which is easier said than done. If we can fix this up then i belive we already have the young forwards that will mature in the next few years to take us forward.

As for the backs... We need pace badly.we are so slow. If we get a new fullback and moga, peni and RTS develop than we could have a good team.

Its only round 4 however changed are needed this year for us to improve and to continue to improve for us to have any hope for next year

The spine of our team is as chalky as Quentin.

How about the ones out there grow some farken balls too

All three key positions have the reek of the board about them.

Braith, Mini and the Illustrated Dwarf are all Politis projects.

Bit rich to pin them on Smith.

Our spine is only broken in one place.......guess which one, Friend, Pearse and Mini are not the problem, god it shits me when no nothing clowns sprout off, we got shafted by the refs against melbourne, and should have been leading at half time, they have 3 of the best players in the game in their so called spine, we have one of the worst in ours..when that gets fixed, which i hope is soon, there will be a major improvement.

Who the hell are you roosdaman to call me a no nothing clown? if you have a problem with people voicing an opinion then your the clown.

We had so many chances with the ball in the first half yet time and time again the players were getting the ball flat footed or rushing the pass as they had no room to move due to slow service from dummy half.The times when the halves had the ball with space they had no attacking purpose or structure,its like they dont know what to do with the ball. Its those players in the main positions job to get fast service to there halves then for the halves to create space or attacking plays for the outside men,this is not happening. Mini,although he gives he's all, is not a ball playing fullback or one that comes into the line to bust it open.

It's only the 4th round however this has been happening for too long now

Hard to argue with this.

Your comments were idiotic....live with it.... to say we have the worst spine in the comp and say that EVERYONE here knows it.....both idiotic statements....if you want to voice an opinion thats fine, if its stupid then expect to be told so.

In the short term our spine should be

1. Sheck

6.Symonds

7.Morts

9.Pearce

The halfback should have in fact been Blake Lazurus, great kicking game, great running game, but once again this farken stupid retention plan of getting rid of any halfback who is a legitimate rival for mentally fragile Pearce's spot in 1st grade is released.
Next season

1. Sheck / Fishiahi

6. Maloney

7. Morts or a new signing

9. Pearce

This is laughable in the extreme, Symonds is flat out making the team, and ive never seen him kick or make a line break.
