I like the look of that team. Obviously will be much stronger when GI and Crock come but I like Manu, Blair and Sam on the bench. They give us size, speed, strength and plenty of skill.

Not to mention Fus as well. The best part is that is we never had him or Crocker for the majority of last season so that will only be a bonus this year.

Who do you leave out to put Fus back in & Crock for that matter ? Sika, Adam and Sam all know that thier one poor performance from a trip to Gosford which will be excellent for us.

 

[Hoggy]

Manu surely.

 

[Noa]

Manu surely.

Possibly but he was the most impressive of the 3 against Leeds and he's got the type of game that Bellamy loves i.e. great defender and excels in those situations where you need some tough yards.

Blairy is easily the best of the three, and I think Taggers has some credits in the bank, more so than Manu anyway.

Manu has a rubbish tattoo on his neck anyway.

I definately agree that Adam is the most talented (most talented forward at the club in fact) but he has to start delivering on it.

Jennings on the wing is absolutely stupid decision.

Worst defensive halves pairing ever?

 

[Shorty]

Agreed.

Plus its a bit of stretch saying that we are a "regular" Top 4 side when we have only finished there ONCE in our history.

Yep,last year was our highest finish in the club's history and we were heavily injury burdened.
I think that's a pretty good achievement personally.

I disagree with powerhouse also,we're not a powerhouse and if anything we are a developing powerhouse.
