Message: [QUOTE="McHunt, post: 3643497, member: 9853"] Enough of this talk about "full strength." A football team isn't its best 17, alone. It's the entire squad who gets you through the season. Planning the top 30 is a coaching strategy in itself. Luck comes into it, but if you set out without depth and versatility on your edges, and a handful of carefully groomed utilities who are in succession for spine roles further down the track, you're already playing roulette. Whoever planned this top 30 made two obvious blunders, right from the outset, probably constrained by the cap: our deputy halfback was already not up to the task of replacing Reyno, and we were impoverished in the Kurt Capewell role. If losing a fullback or second rower early on is enough to overturn our laundry basket, the team is not balanced. No matter the vertical talent of the individual players. [/QUOTE]
