First thing Monday, someone like Hill or Pay, or someone in Bulldogs HQ needs to get on the phone and make some urgent calls.
I get it, we have a young side... but a young side needs experienced heads to guide them through the start of their careers.
Sure some of the young forwards can learn off Tolman (and apparently Elliott thinks he's a leader too), but it's just not enough.
BACKS
Hoppa doesn't have that experience to guide our younger backs.
Someone get Patten in to talk to the players (like Meaney) about backing up and attacking. We desperately needed to keep one or both Morris brothers to assist guys like Okunbor (and Harper as well).
HALVES
This is where we need to the most help. Foran is still developing his game and isn't the answer here.
Someone get Sherwin on the blower and get him working with Lewis and Cogger.
HOOKER
Blind leading the blind here. We need someone that can school our hookers and get the best out of them.
FORWARDS
Get Mason, Andrew Ryan and Frank Pritchard in there to teach the forwards and second row to fire up. 35m in 80 minutes from CHN is rubbish. Sue is garbage. Ogden and Martin need help up front.
It's unfair to assume our players can just be chucked in the deep end with a skills coach and head coach, etc. Only thing that will follow is more misery.
C'mon Bulldogs... get our Bullpups the assistance they need from skilled and experienced players of the past, because they clearly are out of their depth and need guidance.
