Message: [QUOTE="Professor47, post: 2262972, member: 1831"] Touche - but the first two- three seasons AND pre seasons they get... could do wonders.. a risk? yes. - but we all know great players will pull through in the end... Locky/Fittler style... albeit different of course. This was definitely a big call because it WAS a GF qualifier but going the Locky 7 and TC 6... I mean... really? I just don't understand how the outside backs would have got any quality ball, let alone the wide running back rowers... grafting a 14-8 ish win with that set up didn't make sense to me for two main reasons: 1) Even with full strength 14 points against the Storm in the finals is not given freely - you work hard for it. To achieve this with IH's tactic would have been a huge reliance on luck and the bounce of the ball. 2) Keeping the Storm under 10ish points means you need a great kicking game which is beneficial when you got more kickers in position to keep them guessing. Three kickers (Hunt as the back up) is the way to go... TC doesnt kick. It's just too easy for a team like Melbourne. I just dont think a loss in the GF qualifier would have 'destroyed' the kid's career. It could have 'made' his career. [/QUOTE]
