Interesting bump Lennyboy from 2007!
AND NOW we hear from the board that we are not taking Cousins, because wait for it...........
we suddenly have a youth policy
FAIR DINKUM
Ok in 2007 you could excuse Ross for not overplaying kids, considering it was his first year and the penchant for blow up doll worshippers, cult of personality flogs and pre ejaculating dingbats, to demand a finals appearance and in the event of this not happening to decree the sky is falling in, the new emperor has new clothes and the only way forward is for Family First to overthrow an administration that had delivered million dollar profits 5 years running and then these numbuts and spin doctors relocate the club to Seaford with their tunnel vision for the future, within 5 minutes of taking hold of the reigns or whatever it is they've got a hold of and then but hey I digress..............
What was Lyon thinking persisting with Birss and Fiona all year at the expense of Armitage, McEvoy, etc...
The only way forward was to be playing kids all through 2008, seriously, where are Birss and Fiona now?
It didn't take me season 2008 to figure out that they were not what we needed!
A season wasted, which should have seen the development and fast tracking of players such as Armitage and McEvoy by getting games into them, because they are the future!
McEvoy played ONE GAME and acquitted himself nicely, but then was never to be seen again for the rest oft he year!
It was a complete waste of time and space playing Birss and Fiona all year, as if this wasn't obvious, FAIR DINKUM!
for the long term it would have IMO benefitted the club in the long run to have alternatively been getting more games into Armitage, McEvoy etc... afterall these are our first rounders!
Yes Ross, FYI, I am available, if at any time you needed the bleeding obvious pointed out to you!
P.S Jason Blake, had a great 2008, his best contribution for 5 years, most definitely worthy of a place in our best 22, based on his form last season!
DO THE MATHS AND THE SQUARES ARE ALL ROOTED.
