Message: [QUOTE="jr4750, post: 1730252, member: 117"] We need to be ready to give up on this Piroli to the rescue mantra. Kid looked hobbled on the ride last Saturday during the few moments he was out there. No way is he 100% and the year is quickly evolving into crunch time. I agree with the others that have said that Lane is too slow to play SSDM. Jeremy is right, that he is kind of a player without a true position. Just doesn't have the skills to be a true attackmen, and is too slow to be a middie. He definitely works in packages and has a rocket shot, but Desko must be strategic in getting him into the right position. Defense is a mess. We all know that. If Grimm is done for the year, we're screwed. Thought that 3rd freshman middie line looked slow, and didn't really show a sense of field awareness. Those are the guys everyone thinks we can make SSDM. I like Carlin, but he's buried. Could he be a SSDM, maybe? He's big enough. Offense is what it is. Our best pure scorer in years is a feeder for us this year. Bad. Our 22, is a TO machine, who seems to try and win games by himself, although he rides as hard as anyone. I respect that. Piroli ain't Kevin Rice, don't care how healthy he may be. Need to accept that. /O - Williams is beat up or the wings are so so bad. The ones he loses though are scrums that the other fogo is creating by the x. Rarely does he push it out to one of the wings who miss it. Not sure what the deal is there. Goalie - Hill is an average keeper, with a bad defense around him. What do we expect. It could just be, that we aren't that good this year. We had a great team in 2015, and most of those guys are gone. We haven't hit on a number of recruits and some have transferred. Not sure what happened against ND, cause they are not 10 goals better than us, but stuff happens. Giving up leads late bothers me much more. [/QUOTE]
