Recruitment has been that bad, we’re currently champions!!
I think the strength of our spine has papered over our recruitment issues in the last few years.
I don’t think it’s been awful but not has it been great.
I think the cracks are now showing because the spine has changed from a very creative 1 to a strike 1 and also age is catching up with core players within it.
I also think that the spine has struggled to adapt to a new coach as they have worked with the old coach for so long.
The issues above have highlighted the recruitment issues that we have but in some cases didn’t really see fully until this year.
Some of the players in that group have been great servabts to the club and provided us with some fantastic memories but for me the sooner Lam or the new coach is able to change it completely the better we will be.
We have a great opportunity to do that this year with Lock and TL out of contract, and Williams away to Australia. I just wonder if the club will be brave enough to do it in one go or may phase it thorough, but I guess that depends on who is available and the succession plan within the club.
