| Quote ="Funk-Doc"Could it be that the coach is doing the best he can but it is infact the players that just are not good enough??i think you have more then most average plodding workhorse type players and not enough creative players and you have been found out, Kear was good at getting them to play as a team but with Sharp and now Agar they don't seem as able to, your even doing a great job of making Berrigan look average and that can't be easy, the likes of Swain and Kearny pulled the team together but you don't have that now and as much as you dream about these big name signings coming in the reality is the board are gonna keep looking for the cheap option, why else would they give agar the contract they did without him proving himself further??'"
I do think we have creative players, but they are played out of position. Whiting is a LF, yet we play a prop there. that is one of the major problems. With a good coach i think we would be a good side

Ive always thought he had a brilliant defence and didnt ever notice him missing too many, but since he has lost a few Kilos he doesnt look strong enough defensively anymore.

Not sure on that, people always used to say that his defence was very good and also complain (suprise huh) that he did to much defensive work for a 6/7.

A ‘miss tackle’ generally implies he has at least made an effort, I don’t think anyone can question Richard’s effort/commitment. However, I think we need a new adjective to describe Thorman’s ‘attempts’ to stop the opposition.

He's been pretty consistent at 10% missed up until this season, where he's running at around twice that. Or to put it another way, he was missing around 50 tackles in a whole season but has racked up 39 misses so far this season.

Have we a player this season that hasn't missed plenty of tackles? Rich Horne avoids criticism mainly because he's been one of our top 3 players for the last 10 years. If we slag players like Rich off, god help the rest of them!

Which backs up the theory that he is defensively weaker this season and has been pretty good in the past, probably down to his reduced weight/size.
10% missed is a pretty good average i think.
Nice of Jake to prove our point for us!!

I'm not criticising Horne's overall game, just showing that defensively he has problems. The try which calderwood was screaming for obstruction for came about when senior swatted horne away like he was a fly
