It's not down to SOS.
We are missing an entire cohort of 100 game players, players like Isaac Smith taken the pick after Watson, Talia taken the pick after Lucas, and just about everyone taken after Bootsma.
Our second and third rounders in those years were also wipe outs, so we are sadly lacking in experienced players who have been at the club 6 or 8 years who can form the nucleus of a successful team while also covering our woeful lack of depth.
It can't be fixed in two or three years, as supporters we need to suck it up and cut Bolton some slack.
That’s what I saw today. Our lack of depth is really exposed when we cop an injury and/or one of our better players has a quiet day.
