His you tube vid is ultra impressive

Yet another back up. Seriously? We are back in yet another so called long term rebuild.

  Definitely looks like it.

    100%

  And that's a problem because....?
  
  We've had the same coach and core set of players for 6-7 + years. And we had a shit season last season. And we need to change our style to suit the modern game.
  
  Of course we're in a rebuild. Doesn't mean it needs to last years. We might even improve instantly.

    It is problem that our Kellyville " pipeline" is not producing this type of player. We have no hooker, a rookie fullback a rookie coach wing issues .....but no problem, we might win, right?

      This takes a while to set up properly. From what I've heard about the new coaching regime things will be getting much better, soon.

      Former coach gets off Scot free. Go figure.

  I'd rather us plan better for long-term future success by investing in exciting and fast footy than making quick decisions and sign any plodder they can...
  
  It's for depth, so chill. It will unlikely impact the first grade team or any future signings.

Looks promising. We need as much up and coming talent pushing for spots as we can get. That keeps all our FG players honest.

speedy players = injuries

Competition for spots and handy back ups are whats been missing for well over a decade
