[Lods]

Lods, at the same time, none of those players have quite panned out as expected.  They are playing key roles for us, and are as new to the club and its nuances as the rest, and it could be argued, that we might have seen better from Mullett had Docherty not gone down injured.

O shea has been reasonably ordinary as well.

I think we have entered a perfect storm, and we wont be out of it until at least mid year when our injured blokes start taking the field again.

Lang as an example is very under done, and IMHO, shouldnt be playing this week.  he was cooked and on one leg for most of last week against a physical, yet poor outfit.

Those players may all turn out to be excellent pickups for us.
But 'patience' wont be the key to that.
It will be hard work, good planning and development.... and a lot of luck with injuries etc.

The point I'm making is there are no guarantees.
And I'm getting a little sick of the Nostradmaus types who say we should just shut up, sit back and let it happen.

I don't mind "following the path" but if we get led across a muddy creek rather than going over the bridge, it's probably not unreasonable to question why we didn't use the bridge...and there might genuinely be a good reason.
That's what discussion forums are for.
