I guess it will be like when I was a teenager, having a kick around with others who didn't know each other. Everyone called each other mate because we didn't know names. "To me, mate," "Well played, mate."

I wonder how long it will take for them to get to know each other and gel together as a team rather than a bunch of strangers. This time the international break has come at the right time as it gives chance to work on things before they play their first match together.

Player A to Player B - "he (Player C) is bloody good isn't he!"

As long as they are all Player C's we are ok. However if Player C is Grounds or Gleeson we're ******d

I think you are right Blacksmith. I think part of Harry's plan was to freshen up the atmosphere as much as anything else, I think the last few years have had a psychological effect on the team and perhaps a physical one, with players having to play beyond their fitness levels even if they needed resting.

I hope that Wast Hills is really buzzing this morning, and that they all bond over the task ahead. I also hope that the players who have stayed (particularly Davis, who Blues have shown that they really want to keep) feel relieved.

It's a lot of homes and arrangements to find. Girlfriends, wives, parents perhaps to move ?
How many have children needing new schools ?

Those equally important requirements, the anchors and stabilisers, will come with time I'd think, but first as Mr B says, from our point of view is the 'gel factor'.

We have one good advantage. We have Robinson and Gardner in that dressing room.

Perhaps not really liked on forums, this is their environment I'd think, where they can be influential and supportive.

On the Wast pitches it does look like it will a 1939 type mobilisation :o

And we have the same number of support staff, coaches, physios and such to deal with it all.

Barry Fry would have relished this avalanche, and probably picked his biggest or fastest because as he said , he wasn't into tactics.
But, if you look at all this lot you can sense a purpose or a design. Perhaps malformed a bit, through losses and such, but designed with a purpose.

This window, blimey
:LMAO:

I think there has been a VERY valid reason for each incomer. We need to make them secure, off-the-field and integrate and educate them into our Blues history and culture.
Learning KRO might help :D

It will all take time, and we have 40+ matches to go..... a complete new school intake in one go.
Same headmaster, same teachers and a lot of talking at Wast I'd think.

This Window.... blimey!

:applause:
