None .... our props and our forward pack sucks arse. They are hopeless .....and watching them fills me with zero hope. Zero. Unit we change our forward pack I'll be making and using a special blend personal lube for each match
Well, BF Brownie and Waddell are now under threat from Lodge and Sipley you would think.

So is your idea that we play without props?

Just run out with 11 players?

Bold stategy Cotton.......

I think we all appreciate we need some forward signings for 26 (or in a dream world pick up a pre June 30 player) but we are talking how to put our best food forward for the Cowbuys and onwards.

And as fun as harping on about lube and how ****ked we are may be, so like to talk on how the team can improve week to week and how we can best utilize our current squad.

Not at all ..... of course we can't play without props. I am just saying that until we are able to afford to buy some decent forwards we're going to continue to struggle. The ones we have just aren't good enough to be consistently competitive with the best teams and that's pretty obvious every week. We can beat the weaker teams with speed and occasionally jag a win against a stronger team but when we come across a team with a strong forward pack we get out muscled and our "weapons" becomes useless when that happens and we play like a rabble.

I hate watching and joking about how badly are going as much as anyone.

Yeah we certainly need a bit of a shake up in the pack and from what wedontcare says who seems to be ITK we are looking at some younger forwards.

A marquee would be great but really just two young forwards in the mould of a Dylan Egan, Halasima, Couchman, Steep, Mooney etc would help balance us. A couple of "about to take the next step" players.

There is nothing in itself wrong with the experienced moneyball signings. But they should be sprinkled in with young up and comers and marques.

We simply have to many in TKO, Brown, Lodge, Tevaga, Waddell etc and to little younger blood.
