Everyone's entitled to their own opinion but I think Folkesy is still the man for the job. He knows what he's doing. E.g I don't think he would drop Sherwin for nothing, for the sake of dropping him....unless as it was said before it was a punishment for something. He obviously wants sherwin to lift his game and get the form back which he had 2002, 2003. I trust in Folksey and would still like him to be coach even beyond 2006.
The Bulldogs have never evolved into anything just relied on individual brilliance , Folkes has never developed any players, but he dosen't have the skill to, i watched him as a player that i liked, very boring. He has nothing to pass on the the team.
If dropping a player helps him, why dosen't he dropp Corey Hughes EVER? Hughes has had 2 bad games this year but never looked like loosing his position and 6 bad games straight to end last season. If the Dogs had an attacking Lock with Balls skill like every successful Dogs team (except 2004) the forwards would be more than just one out hit ups and hope the can break through, People always say Grimaldi is there for his defence and what he has done for the club, not many tackles this year I'm sure he's been payed well for doing his job, but let a more talented player into lock like Maitua (if u had to back Grimaldi or Maitua in a one on one game wwho would u really pick if u had your house on it?). Folkes was good for the first 2 or 3 years but 8 years is way to long not to teach anyone anything.

in league they say the big 3-4 positions are are hooker half fullback and in some cases lock.
we have
perry/hughes
holdsworthy
patten
grimaldi
compair this to
the knights
bronocs
tigers
infact most teams and we come out as having little attack and that is the bottom line
we have ordinary hookers a defensive lock a young fella at half and a avarage at best fullback.
all this equals to the most important positions in the team compaired to other teams are below par.
this is made to look better by our awsome forwards and blistering 3 1/4.
but against the top teams you will be found out
a team like
sherwin hb
williams/maitua lock
cutler fb
?????? hooker
will provide more attacking football and be a premiership winning combo.
look at west their big 4 won them the flag cause apart from them they were pretty weak all over

Steve Folkes is still the man for the job and knows what he is doing.
