Hi all I have tried to stay positive in the last few years where we have been in terrible form however I have a few questions to pose:
Why does Denis persist with Adrian de Luca?
I understand he probably does have a good attitude, trains hard and offers something different, however he has shown little improvement in the last 2 years and does not warrant a position in the starting 22 for Rnd 1.
The same applies to Simon Wiggins- Although he shows nothing different and has been at the club many years and still has not proven himself. Not sure if he ever will.
There are others such as Chambers, Sporn, but I am willing to give them a little more time as they have either shown something or have not been around long.
I do not understand why he does not give a game to players like Hartlett, Russell and Blackwell. As West Coast showed last night the game is changing into a fast paced one, not a traditional position setup one. These players are ideal for this type of game
Decisions like this have great effect on membership renewal (note I am a signed up member) as unfortunately a great deal of people do focus on the negatives and over the past few years Wiggins and De Luca have not really provided any real form for people to be positive about. I understand it is only round one but as a passionate supporter we need greater hope that what is being dished up at the moment. Why are we the only team that it takes years and years for our youngsters to come on and in many cases they are either deemed not up to it- Murray Vance or shipped of Kris Massie- Watch out Luke Livingston you are looking down the barrel.
On the positive side- Go blues do it for Kouta 250th he deserves it
