was 2009 a fluke for this bloke? It's starting to look that way....
We recruited very well last year and surprised many sides. But this year, with Eastwood gone, we lack grunt up front and other sides seem to be able to better our tactics... Noddy is a year older and now looks past his used-by date...
I don't know how much blame kevvy should take for the losses tho. if you go to the bulldogs player profiles... it's hardly an inspiring list. Especially in the forwards. So kevvy can only work with what he's got. and our forwards are at the small end of the scale. Backs look very good. But as last night shows... if you've got stagg and ryan getting owned every play, then there's not much the backs can do. But then again, we have a lot of injuries, so you can hardly blame kev for that. We desperately need paea back. Yileen is a great impact player from the bench - he's not a starter tho. Hannant goes hard. But the rest get bashed every run. I mean, getting g-wart and hodgo back is gonna do nothing. Just swapping two powder puffs for another two powder puffs. Feel sorry for green tho. that bloke should not be packing in the scrum - that is kevvy's fault for playing him there.
in short its hard to assess kevvy;s performance at this stage... its too early in the season and there are some injuries... but in seasons past the doggies have always been able to get the job done no matter who plays on the day.... so this aspect is worrying.
