Message: [QUOTE="Number6, post: 2947863, member: 9008"] Yeah think Cows have missed a trick this year. Morgan should have stayed at 7 from start since was killing it and JT was always going to be slow coming back so why not ease him into it from bench as didn’t need weather first 20 mins of each game at 6 so can pick his moments. Now finals are all but done don’t see the sense in persisting with him more than dignity allows. Morgan to 7 and need to get Martin in doing a lot of ball playing from 6/13 role (13 when JT2 having a spell) to prep for next year. Ideally use JT for 40-50 minutes to close the game and guide the team so the old legs can play quality minutes and more in a teaching role. QLD would have been much better off with Smith stepping up doing same thing to guide team home after 30th minute. At very least Smith needs to be asked to come into camp when Macca is unfortunately selected again to get him up to speed. Could do similar with Ponga and Slater. Let slater play fullback with Oates on wing and in last 30 switch slater to wing, Oates to second row and bring Ponga on to run riot on tired forwards. Need a succession plan rather than just throwing guys in deep end where possible, use your legends to teach the new guys. Use young blokes in short stints since they are more likely to drift in and out of the game more so build their confidence and get most value by getting them on for impact. [/QUOTE]
