Message: [QUOTE="Thelmus, post: 3020887, member: 8988"] We are atrocious at the moment but there isn't a lot of answers coming through here, just hurt and lashing out. I'm not sure there is an easy fix, but a few things changed could make a difference to some outcomes. I missed the game and just saw the highlights so I can't make too many observations, but it looks to me like this team needs an injection of new faces to freshen things up. I'd be pushing for an experienced half from ISC (haven't watched a lot but Scarlett seems to be going well), a utility on the bench to give some zip for Macca, pushing Boyd to centre or 5/8 (not because he is terrible at fullback but because he can lead this team better). As a coach, I would be drilling defence pretty much non-stop and simplifying the game plan to emphasise possession and playing off the forwards second phase play. Whoever came into the halves would have to have game management skills and a decent kicking game. I'd be tempted to drop Milford to the bench to use in that utility role, push Knik to 5/8 or fullback depending on what's happening further down with our second string players and promoting either Fensom or Taga to the bench. Carrigan deserves a run-on spot by what I'm hearing from others, but not seeing this game, I'm open to other's opinions on the matter. Anyway, just my 2 cents. If we keep losing like this, at some stage we'll be better off putting a line through the season and playing nothing but young blood from that point on. We're not there yet, and I hope we don't reach it, but it's looking more and more likely every week. [/QUOTE]
