[QUOTE="mackka, post: 143601"] While there are certainly a couple of Tahs players in the squad who shouldn't be there, I don't think the fact that they finished so poorly means that they don't have alot of players who really should be. A team often isn't the sum of its parts and I think this season the Tahs were much less than the sum of their parts. I think the shifting of the 5/8 spot before settling on the frankly pretty average Norton-Knight meant that combinations couldn't develop in the backline in particular. There were obviously numerous other problems but other than Baxter and possibly Dunning, what Tahs players don't deserve to be over there? I'd be hard-pressed to pick any better replacements for the rest of them. [/QUOTE]
