The Peel loss sounded like a heartbreaker with those two Alex Pearce late goals....though 1.8 in the first really was the problem come end of the day....gotta move on and ensure this is only a blip under Wiley....definitely was a problem under Malaxos for some unknown reason Been reports that Howlett is back training, hopefully he isn't too far away, his experience and quality will be needed up back against quality teams like WP, Subi and SF. Wiley seems a fan of Winton, be interested to see how long it takes before he gets a league game. EF mids in Eardley, Crichton, Anthony x 2 and Henson have been more than serviceable and hopefully that can continue.
The forwards have had plenty of scoring shots in both games so far, would love to see Watson kick a bag to ease the level of fan expectation off his shoulders and get his season kick started. Great to see Peake in amongst the goals, would love to have BOB prowling around the forward line, maybe if Howlett comes back that may happen....Hampson is due a few goals too.....early days I know.....not the March premiers Swandog thinks we are....a win over SD at present is a given and in the current scheme of things a no big deal TBH.....a scalp like WP will give us a better indicator of how we are travelling as a team....
Yes Freeze, always great games at Condemned Park, this will be no exception. Keunen is out for 6-8 weeks, Nelson 5 weeks, I hope Rassmussen and Manning are ready to return, we have reasonable depth which will keep us competitive but will it be enough to win games ???
