Not there yet.Agree....its a long season and we need our full compliment offrontline troops in to compete even vs the bottom teams, we dont have the depth and its something for the list management team to work on. Players like Martin are now just passengers burning a hole in our salary cap and we have to bring in more robust competitive types who can play a near full season and not miss a third of the games every year. 3 Likes

GiC myself and a few others aren't surprised. I'd add the impact of all the changes to your list. Building stumps to CEO, Coahes, game plan and everything in between. Very little comes naturally in these scenarios because it's still being taught/learned and integrated. Subsequently, we face a challenge that’s beyond us. Demands outweigh resources unfortunately.
