"I agree but these things also makes them good signings, nobody else identified the talent.

"Yes Mace, we all wonder why other teams can get good signings while our R&R seems to be slow as a turtle to get a legitimate good player. We missed Koloamatangi to Dragons with a 1 year contract difference. What might be the reason and who decided…"
"Pops, really great reply, and apologies, I was venting this more in general than specifically at your blog.
'We do not have a discernable forward leader in any shape or cause'- Pops, I believe this to be a huge issue for years now, nailed it.

"This we already have talent like Nuikore and we have Iongi and Moses who have a bit more we need a couple more with a bit more.
R & R no this we all no this but the issue is R & R haven't been able to close.

"Correlation vs causation, valid point.
So here's what the data says - it is not bad luck.
The assumption I made was that it is bad management. That's pure assumption, very valid point. That was all my leap.

"I think Moses at least needs the benefit of the doubt at the moment due to the team and what he has playing around him...but the catch 22 is that we cannot get the quality around him no matter what we try to do ....This next batch of players coming…"
"Nightmare Off-Season hi Mate, no criticism and the giving up scenario is well put.
My rationale is what I wrote in the undefendable blog and that entailed a lack of ability.
I have a theory about defence and it entail's that defence, has to be led…"

"Our BA era signings were not amazing signings at all. BA was (and is) excellent at getting certain types of players to outperform their potential - that was his superpower that everyone marvelled at. No one thought our squad on paper was capable of…"
