[QUOTE="broncoscope, post: 3441039, member: 8547"] Well I'm feeling everyone's pain with how the Broncos have fallen off a cliff in the last 5 weeks or so. How to fix this rabble is the million dollar question.. # let's start with the coaching staff.. After some of Kevs strange team selections over the last month or so have , I'm having serious doubts on his coaching ability. It just hasn't made sense. * putting Jensen back to the bench and starting Flegs, just hasn't worked. * Turpin and Walter's as the hooking rotation gives us next to nothing in attack,especially when Turpin has been told he's not wanted for next year and beyond. Don't get me wrong, Paix is no star but at least he seems to get the forwards moving in the right direction. * not having Hethrington starting at lock is crazy, especially when Carrigan has been suspended . * having James anywhere near this footy team is another head scratcher, he's so far past it that it's ridiculous. Kev an Co what the **** are you doing!!? I think whoever the defensive coach is , it's time to go. I know Flanagan is not popular on here but I think he would have a positive impact on our young players and if Kev doesn't aim up next year, we'll he could take over. The interchange throughout the game needs to be so much better as certain players are left on the field way too long. I'm not sure if Kev is in charge of that or if all the coaching staff have a say,but it needs to really improve. Now for the players: I think Haa$ had become a cancer in the player ranks and needs to be cut out and let go. We really need some mongrel in our pack, so a hardened front rower needs to be found. There must be one out there somewhere we can get. A hardened second rower like Spencer Leniu from Penrith would be good because he takes no shit and gives his all every game. I think Riki had been given plenty of time to shape up but I don't think he's what we need as he's just too soft and has bad hands. Maybe Piakura is the answer but unfortunately he hasn't played enough to form an opinion. Hooker.. Well it's obvious that all the top teams have a top line hooker, whereas we have a pair of spuds in Walters and Turpin. We need a hooker with speed and some playing skills to put opposition teams in two minds and get our forwards space and give quality ball to our backs. I have a really out there solution which will probably be laughed off this forum but anyway hear it out.. I would like to give Mam a go at hooker..He has lightning speed which would trouble other teams around the ruck. He also has a good passing game which we badly need. His front on defence could be a worry but he has shown enough to give me hope that he'd handle it. He'd certainly give opposition teams something to worry about. 5/8.. Here's another one that won't go down well,but I'd like to see Reece Walsh in there. He has plenty of speed and a good passing game and his kicking game would take the pressure off Reyno. His defence is probably a problem but we've had Locky as a champion 5/8 and his defence was pretty average as well. We would just have to have a good minder like Tunza was for Locky. Fullback.. he's probably not ready for it but I would love to see Cobbo get a pre-season there and given a chance. Or Herbie or Tesi can also be given a chance and let the best man win the spot. Centre.. if Cobbo goes to fullback we have Staggs( who really needs to aim up) and Herbie and Mariner to take the two spots. The odd one out can join Oatsy on the other wing. Well that's my take on how the Broncos can go with next year because I think we need a shake up in attack and defence. Let the attack on my ideas begin but be kind.. lol [/QUOTE]
