Our list issues started before SOS & Austin.Head hunt for the best & experienced talent in the field, Coaching & Recruiting are critical and vital, we’ve lost at least 20 years fumbling in the dark. SOS burned away so many first round picks, just disastrous what a waste.
Dow, O’Brien had to be paid out SPS it’s too painful to mention the remainder.
SOS made some poor decisions but he also inherited a basket case and had to get us competitive fast. GWS was the fastest way because he knew the talent and had some opportunities to get good players cheap due to injury. A gamble that could go either way. BUT, he didn’t miss with our spine.
Austin inherited a hospital ward of long term injured, and has had to offer decent picks and salary to get talent through the door, as we weren’t really seen a a destination club.
Blame our Head of Football and previous board for that.
At least we are travelling in the right direction now.
