Message: [QUOTE="Foordy, post: 3286567, member: 1769"] The Storm are able to recruit those "nobodys" because they have a core group of established players already in their side. what we've done is jettison our established players in favour of the highly rated youngsters. which can be fraught with danger if they don't get surrounded by the already established and proven performers to learn from. you can't just start recruiting like the Storm. you first need to take the time to build the core of the team first, which is what we are trying to do now. that's where the likes of Reynolds, Capewell, Mead etc come in. When Bellamy came to the Storm, he didn't just start recruiting like he does today. he started setting up his systems and getting his core right ... and once he had all that sorted he was able to bring in the rejects, the nobodies, the late bloomers etc (oh, and a second set of books helps as well) if we try to take a short cut and recruit like the Storm now, before we get our core right ... we'll continue to lose to them on the field [/QUOTE]
