Message: [QUOTE="mitch222, post: 2975919, member: 8605"] If we get our full squad on the park for once (we never had it this year), I'm fairly confident we are right to go. Nikorima and Milford was starting to work really well at the end of the year. Milford has developed tremendously over the year and another off season with Kodi will give them the world of confidence (they didn't have the off season together this year because Niko was hurt for most of it) I know we lost to a few teams we shouldn't have but that's more of an attitude problem than a player personnel problem. We line up like this next year and there is no reason to doubt why we wont be there about in September. 1. Boyd 2. Isaako 3. Roberts 4. Bird 5. Oates 6. Milford 7. Nikorima 8. Lodge 9. McCullough 10. TPJ 11. Glenn 12. Gillett 13. McGuire 14. Offa 15. Sua 16. Fifita 17. Haas 18. Staggs 19. Kahu - personally I think he is leaving 20. Sullivan 21. Turpin - don't think he has re-signed yet 22. Pearson 23. Mago 24. Carrigan 25. Opacic - has he been released? 26. Shibasaki 27. Fai Personally on that front, we are a bit skinny on depth for front row. We have plenty of second rowers and if Sullivan unseats Kodi in the halves (I don't think he will) then we lose absolutely nothing with Kodi on the bench. This is all assuming Oates and TPJ re sign which the signs at the moment point to but things happen but if it doesn't then we need to go to the market and get another front rower and secondary winger. Its not all doom and gloom. There is absolutely plenty of talent in that squad. Getting them fit and on the park (notice pretty much every team left has full strength rosters and not 3-4 influential players out) is the key. They say the best teams always win the comp but you need just as much luck to get there as well with injuries. Put it this way, if Matt Gillett's on the field yesterday, Sims isn't getting those tries so easy or at all. We don't have to reinvent the wheel here, just some minor changes and people back on the park and we are right back into contention immediately. [/QUOTE]
