That makes it 11 in a row!
Another very embarrassing result.
Skolars are averaging 63 points a game against them. 379 points in 6 league games.
Its all very good to have young promising players like Vine, Junor and Obuchowski coming through the ranks in the team but what good does it do for their confidence by being beaten every week and playing next to very average players?
Skolars made some very poor signings and I heard they are losing more players with the likes of Chapman and Ellison departing.
They need to act fast and get some decent players in soon!
On the plus side the reserve team was very entertaining today and I believe some of the first team players should be worried.Good performances from James Thompson, Dion Chapman(another youngster) and Rubert Jonker(coach)
I'm keeping my fingers crossed for that first win of the season but I just can't see it happening anytime soon.
Oh and by the way for those of you who would like to know, skolars average 8 points per game!
Its a bit of a shame to see Skolars doing so badly, because as has been said its great to see young southern lads getting plenty of gametime, and so many of them but a smattering of quality here and there would give a young team so much more.
It has been a gamble that has not paid off. Recruiting players from Conference league to play in Champ 1 is not a very bright start.
I reckon Smokie, Jars and Andre will become better players in time but in order to become a better player, you need the right players around you to learn from.
These type of seasons can wreak a player.
Skolars do not have that atm. They do not have the experience or talent to draw from to teach these young kids how to play semi-pro footy.
Mind you, those 3 boys are, I think- correct me if i am wrong, some of the first to come through from the Skolars juniors to play 1st team footy.
The club needs to start recruiting for next year in the next month or so to understand where they need to stregthen in their squad.
I reckon a complete over hual is needed. Big props, big centres and a good 5/8. I would also recruit a good lock and Fullback.
