System Versus Cistern

Post: # 2008630Post Vortex »

Are we all still convicted all we need to win a flag is a system?

As most pundits know, a coach is nothing without a quality list, even a good coach like Ross, luckily he's no mug and knows that already.

The list will look completely different in 3 to 4 years and I expect there will be a hard cut this year.

Winter is coming in fast.

Will be a reality check across all line coaches this week ..but Adelaide are coming that's for sure and were favourites going in.
The wheels have fallen off to some extent with the young guns looking pooped . King Webster Billings and Windy and Bytel and Gresham should freshen up the team . I'd like to see some big changes this week .. Marshal looks injured again ..would also like to see Campbell. Out sharman Membery Ross Paton Pou.

We weren't favourites

I had 2 X live 4 leg multis going into our game

Saints win would have bagged me an extra hundge

I’m surprised you could control yourself long enough to post this after the game rather than at half time. Congratulations on your self restraint.

I don’t think that anyone thought a system only could win us a Premiership. Of course we need good players who can execute the game plan.

We need the best of all elements, administration, coaching, playing list and just a bit of luck too.


Rugby League would have to be the stupidest, most moronic and over rated game of all time.

The Crows are ok and will be middle of the road, might make the finals but only making up the numbers.

Our list is well short of the players needed to contend, the early wins papered over the cracks, but I don't think the coaches were delusional about where the list is at the start of the season, and whilst we were winning games. As I was saying all along, it's a long road ahead to find some players capable of playing in GFs.

Like a vulture Vortex has been hovering waiting for a bad loss.
Now we can be once again bombarded with his negative condescending narratives .beat his chest...while some of us will concentrate on the positives.

If we ever do win a flag mate I reckon you'd still find it tough to get a drinking partner.

We are still waiting for Vort to put his $1K on the bar, I wouldn’t hold your breath.
