Are we missing Zac?
Now I have never been a big gee for Dawson but at the moment we look short down back , so are we missing him?

Re: Are we missing Zac?
We do need someone down there who's taller than 191cm to play a key defensive poistion. Asking too much of Gwilt, Blake, Raph (and Simpkin when he's there) to play on guys who are 196cm.
Opinions are like arseholes, everybody's got one.

Re: Are we missing Zac?
Of course we're missing him. We were always going to as soon as he left. There is no-one obvious to replace him, regardless of what you think of him. He was very valuable to our structure. Wasn't the best FB in the league, but contrary to what many think he was no where near the worst either.

Re: Are we missing Zac?
The problem re Tall Defenders goes back to the Ross Lyon-John Peake era where there was ZERO forward planning. How many players do we have on our list between 22-26 years? !!
NEW scarf signature (hopefully with correct spelling) will be here as soon as it arrives !!

Re: Are we missing Zac?
Agreed. And that further magnifies the shortcomings of our recruiting policy in recent years, possibly going all the way back to Grant Thomas when players were well & truly overpaid, creating recruiting-drafting-trading problems !!mr six o'clock wrote:NO !
