I think that Ratts plan was to play every player in the pre season comp to give those that feel theyt haven't been given a chance when they were due some confidence that this will not happen under Ratts.

Sorting out who will play where is what season 2008 is all about. I think that the Ratts will use this year as a platform to settle the side into some regular positions and if someone is not performing in that position after a decent go, then someone else will be given a go. This is important because we haven't really done this with our list and are suffering for it.

I think that Waite will be given a post up forward and perhaps Carlos too, this will give Fev some support and having 2 tall athletic forwards will put opposition defences under great pressure.
Bower, Grigg, Jamison or even Sake could build a defensive unit lead by Hoops, Scotland and Thornton. It will be a bit of hit and miss, but whoever we pick must be played together for most of the season regardless of the outcomes. They must learn each others strength and weaknesses and be supportive of each other.
The only expectation I have of this season is that by the end of it, we will know who will be our FB, CHB, Ruckman and CHF.
Oh and I hope that Betts along with others are made to earn their spots, because with all the things I didn't like about Pagan, the one that grates me the most is that as poor as we were, we had to many walk up start players that didn't earn their spots and guys that should have been given a go weren't, DON'T LET THIS HAPPEN AGAIN RATTS.

don't any of you have jobs? How are you getting out of work?
