I think we will have an ordinary year unless reynolds/mbye steps up or a chisholm kills it in the halves ,I'm really worried about our kicking game this year and feel its reynolds make or break year ,he's been pretty average and needs to step up or move on
Yep totally agree with all that, also goal kicking is a huge problem.

and Lobster Grimaldi.

Grimaldi is the teams new Strength and Conditioning Coach, whilst Don Singe is Director of Athletic Performance, so oversees all the trainers and S&CC.

That said I don't think we'll do great next year, and may miss the 8. So many sides have actually improved their teams 2015 weaknesses, and we've done nothing really.

Very keen to see what we do in Auckland 9s this year and if we decide to take it seriously.
Well our right side was terrible in defence, I guess they pinpointed the problem may and let him go. Otherwise we have a very strong lineup it's few weaknesses. It takes time for players to develop in first grade and guys in key positions like Mbye and Lichaa were always going to take time to develop, even Morris at fullback will be better after last year.

Don't be too glum, chum, wholesale changes weren't needed, we just need to develop what we have.

It comes done to Des letting our halves,and to a certain degree Lichaa, control the game like they should and get rid of the forward orientated rubbish.

How long until we admit that the so called "under the radar" is just an excuse for us under performing?

Quiet is good. Dramas in the offseason in the recent past, with the likes of Loko and Barba wasnt fun. Give me quiet any day.

Thats true and maybe with a few more speedy players in the backline he may change our style

Usually by this time I'm fairly pumped for the footy to start but yeah not really looking forward to it based on recent performances.

I can't wait for the season to start. I believe we have a great young squad with plenty of potential.
