As I’ve been saying for months we are the unfittest and laziest team in the comp. No one willing or able to do the hard stuff
I know in previous posts Jim you seem to stick up for Rutten and put it all on the players.
But surely the coach is responsible for this, he either takes action and drops these big names for this complete lack of effort, or he needs to go himself if he can’t motivate them
I think our list profile is wrong and we simply don’t have the cattle but what is concerning me is our fitness and our fitness team need to all be fired. We had guys not presenting in great shape which is on the players but we have suffered the most soft tissue injuries and look woefully unfit.
Rutten does have to start making a statement with some of these blokes but unfortunately we don’t have much in the reserves currently
Was the Shiel one a fitness issue though. If King is correct apparently he had literally just got back on after having one of his rotations and it was his first contest. Seemed to be simply an effort issue.
