Message: [QUOTE="Foordy, post: 3452568, member: 1769"] FTR, I've never once claimed he was perfect and would have done some things different myself, but the the word he used was "DIABOLICAL" ... I see 20 team list on here every week that differ from Kevvie's, they all can be correct (despite every one claiming theirs is the best possible option) I've previously explained the Turpin decision on here 100's of times, but people would have preferred a busted out of form Paix or a fan fovourite Gamble (despite him not suiting that role). Paix is in our longer term plans, so it was better to get him right and work out his form issues in the QLD cup. Gamble had to be at 6 or not in the team ... I realise he did well coming of the bench against a Titans team that spent the season propping up the table, but it would have been a waste against anyone not fighting for the wooden spoon. he was also playing injured anyway James i'll give you, as i would have liked to have seen Piakura given more of a run ... but i also see Kev's position that given his lack of game time of the last couple of seasons, it was better for his development to get a run of games together in the lower grades. I actually also think Mam, should have been given a spell before the final round of the season ... but Kev keeping him in the team stopped the internet from exploding due to the whinging that would have occurred. on the 7 minutes, many coaches do similar things: in fact in the Storms last 5 games, Bellamy (one of the greatest coaches of all time) effectively ran with a team of 15. (with tow of his interchanges getting a combined total of approximately 30 mins; in one game they got a combined total of just 16 minutes) ... in at least 2 of those games one of their players only got 5 minutes. GF coach Brad Arthur, did similar to Kevvie, with one player usually getting around the 10 minutes (some times less) mark. [/QUOTE]
