Message: [QUOTE="lynx000, post: 3187006, member: 2065"] You absolutely nailed the bolded part. There are many contributors in terms of personalities and factors to where we found ourselves in 2020, some date back to WB's time (but are not solely in anyway attributable to him, he just played some part), but many relate to the choice of the wrong coach to replace him. Further big factors this year in my view were the injury toll, and to key players in key positions, the COVID break, what I perceive to be a lack of diligence in our training regime over that break (perhaps the only thing within our control), the change in the rules and the change in the draw. Once things started to go awry, Captain Burn the Boats simply did not have a clue as to how to address and remedy the problem. That is one of the problems with an inexperienced coach and a stubborn coach. If you want to go back further in time, as I have harped on about before, our succession planning absolutely sucks and has done for about 15 years. The Storm lose key players in key positions and seem to always have one or two or three potential competent replacements in the background.
