There is a reason why you are just a random on an internet message board, instead of a head coach.
Come on then Wayne bennett, tell me how you would produce some creative players out of nothing. Tell us all how easy it is when there are none available |

| Quote SaintsFan="SaintsFan"We finished third, not fourth, in 2011 and 2012, and this year we were ejected from the CC in the quarters, first time in 12 years, and didn't make it to the GF, first time in 7 years, so I'd say that we now have a less likely 'base' than we have had in a number of years as we achieved less than we had been achieving for years.'"
You can achieve less and still have a sound base for winning the title. I doubt Leeds fans are saying they've no chance next year yet they finished fifth in your Super League.

It is.

That '96 side needed defence. The year before it was awful. |

 Classic.
1 - Drop the door mat
2 - Play Makinson at fullback
3 - Promote Lee Gaskell to 6
4 - Play Hohaia from the bench
Boom! Two of the 3 problem positions are sorted. And that's before I go hunting for players.
Realistically the club has to do the above. It also has to start getting itself in gear with recruitment. Good players ARE, ARE, ARE, ARE, ARE, ARE available. In the past few seasons we COULD have signed Hardaker, Ratchford, Eden, Hill, Dureau and Bateman, for a combined outlay of about the equivalent of a Ford Mondeo. |

Big difference here: they have actually won the title in recent years. We haven't won so much as a Blue Peter badge. |

The scope of 'sound base' is highly subjective and entirely dependant on your perspective...hence the pointless debate!
We have as much of a 'sound base' as every team except from Leeds.

Leeds sign Joel Moon, we sign Jordan Turner. Does anyone feel short changed?

Considering that he'll have cost a bit of money and the fact he was reported to be homesick, I don't personally. |

Leeds tried to sign Joel moon at the back end if last year, he certainly not a last minute choice and he's a very very good centre. Joel moon is a wingers centre as is Lulia and both are much better than Turner.
Turner has a raw talent and let's hope Brown can bring him on a level.
