Panthers gonna have a field day..
That Knights side was missing their star player in Ponga, their 6 in Green, their origin winger Eddy Lee and lost Mann and Bradman Best to injury in the game.. and they still ran all over us lol.
We are at the very start of another cycle of rebuilding.. the last 3 seasons were a complete waste of time.
the last three seasons were unfortunately necessary to endure due to how mismanaged our cap was... as a result, a lot of the errors from the previous regime (not all but a lot) we have now moved beyond
I think the club has also done well in recruitment for this year and for next year as well addressing the spine (minus hooker), the outside backs and a couple role players in the pack
however, sometimes it takes time to climb out of a big hole... more recruitment needed, more deadwood to be cut loose, greater emphasis on the junior grades and development
for now, and for the rest of 2021, I am happy for Barrett to be in charge... unless we win the spoon, I think Barrett's role need not be reviewed until early to mid 2022
