I am not remotely underwhelmed. Relieved really. We can recruit, if needed, with a clear structure, and although it is super early, the initial signs post Dai were there in terms of the freedom we played with and our potency. A few games is not a big audition, but it is where we are. I have probably placed a little bit less emphasis on the coaches than most- for many in various places these past 18 months led to a call for a new coaching set up, for some people involving Dai, others not, whereas I felt that our players were very low on confidence, and the drop off last year was down to slightly uneven recruitment and player quality/experience cf 2017 rather than a clear sign that we needed a big name coach. As such, I am very pleased we have given Lee a shot. Confidence has fed on the W, and a positive feedback loop has left us looking good. I hope we can maintain the approach we have seen thus far.
