Be afraid, Be very afraid

[Hangover]

If I was the opposition I would be extremly scared of what level the mighty pies could get too.

Early in the first quarter of the Grandfinal Replay there was a piece of play that got me very excited about the future. Coming out of the back line was Sidebottom -> Blair -> The Caf -> Moneybags. All of which beat their man. all read the play well. Then watching what Sidebottom and Blair produced last night, got me really believing there is no way there will be a premiership hangover. Not with the quality and the rate of our player development. Looking forward to the development of Ugle, Fasolo, Young in particular, Thomas.

People have been talking about a sustained period of success for the Pies, somewhere between 3 more years. If Derek Hine is kept on board I don't see why that period of success couldn't extend to be 5-6 more years. Especially with the players previously mentioned coming through.

tactics will have to get better....and hunger?

 

[Hangover]

true it could potentially be a problem. But with so many young guys coming through the ranks, and vying for positions i don't see that hunger dropping off. Mick and Bucks has all ready said that until a game is played in the H&A season, nobodies spot in the side is safe. Everybody is replaceable, even Swanny.

Jye Bolton looks like he'll be a star. Fasolo looks capable already.

I seriously don't know where all these guys will fit in. Our depth 'problem' is even worse than last year. People though we lost depth last year losing Tarkyn, Medders, Presti etc, but outside Presti, most of the players we lost were fringe players/past it anyway.

We now have genuine starting 22 players who will be forced to play in the reserves because there's just no room for them.

Scary.

I was told this from a Saints supporter after the first grand final. Hope this thread doesn't backfire on you!
