Message: [QUOTE="Manofoneway, post: 3661868, member: 15527"] So many reasons why this year has been bad - Shortened pre-season. 5 rep players played footy until November - Couldnt return for preseason training because they needed 10 weeks off. Pre-season was also cut short a the other end for the exhibition in Vegas. Manly & Roosters had like one or two rep players missing from preseason - we had 5! We went into the season massively undercooked. Then you have the injuries to key players - Expensive prop, star halback, fullback and the rest. Ridiculous injury toll this year and right over the origin period. Mam & Piakura were also not training with the main squad during origin and they have been our worst defenders. Probably needed to train with the squad most throughout that time and they were unavailable for training during origin. All of these things contribute and all of a sudden, our third string fullback and 4th string outside backs look very ordinary. [/QUOTE]
