After watching our pathetic effort yesterday I watched about half of the Richmond v Giants match. What a reality check.
We are so far off the pace of the top sides - years in fact.
I hate to admit it but the result of our recruiting over the past five years has left the cupboard bare with few players with the necessary skills to match the best of the top eight sides.
It doesn't matter who we have as coach. We seem to be stacked with players with mediocre skills at best who will never get better, only older. And players who promise so much but are not able to deliver consistently.
Then we have the injury prone Charlie and Harry who we expected by now to be leaders in our move up the ladder. Who knows when and if they will deliver in the future.
