boag1874 Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 We're starting to see a good core of the team develop where I think we have at least 5 outfield players that should be starting every game when fit to do so- Shankland, Forrest, Beni, Cochrane & Kent regardless of the system or opposition need to be playing, then if it's a back 3 Rowles starts on the left. It's a big difference when compared to last season where I only really felt Shankland, Cochrane and then from December onwards Gino were in that position on merit rather than out of necessity (obviously largely down to injury, had Halks & Beni been fit they'd also be guaranteed starters for instance). The team lacked a spine & there was little to no continuity. This core group are a big factor in where we are now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hmfc_liam06 Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 I also think we're very very close to fielding our strongest side. From last night you could argue only Rowles was missing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not often you get stronger going into the games coming up to the split... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Americana Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 Aidan Denolm had hoped would be getting more game time than Grant. Apart from that the line ups always seem strong. Look forward to Halkett back starting, reckon if het gets back on his game him and Kent will be a brick wall of a defence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
