HahahaIf I had kids, I’d refuse to let them follow St George. I wouldn’t want them to be miserable like me every year
Didn't work for my son
he follows West tigers
We do, however, feel each others pain

I have avoided posting to give myself some time to gather my thoughts.
First 2 games:
low energy
No line speed
Soft defence near out goal line
No killer instinct
Causes:
Very hot conditions
Training techniques
Possible player fallout from Molo incident
We simply lack the cattle and are playing senior players when we should be promoting KOE forwards
Forward Solutions:
Drop Lawrie
Luc Leilua to the bench
Drop RFM
Stewart to start
Cook/Liddle to share game time equally
Klemmer/Sele hopefully available for round 4
Consider elevating LPT to 17
Halves:
LKT to be considered if halves don’t improve by end of round 7
Halves lack the ability to manage the game
Sloan should be utilised to chase chip kicks. Only player we have with exceptional speed. Find ways to use that speed.
Kicking is so important now that a modern team can essentially be built around a good kicker. If you don't have a good kicking 6 or 7, you will always be in trouble for field position. It was a mistake to sign Ilias as he is a mediocre kicker.Is Ilias our only kicker? We might need to stick with him for no other reason. If Gutho was moved to the halves, who kicks?
On paper I like the look of tigers team.Sorry guys just off subject just watching the Tigers playing Parra half time 16 nil ...... Pleasure to watch speed all over the park even Bird is reacting quicker ........ Good blend of youth and seasoned players ........ Can't beat speed something we are not ........

All good ideas. We will probably end up with Gutho 6, KF 7 and Sloan1. KF + LKT did combine well last year but thst still leaves us without a long kicker.I have avoided posting to give myself some time to gather my thoughts.
