[ROK Lobster]

Can we double up on the back-to-back?

The key to the win in 05 was the lack of injuries in the senior squad allowing the good quality youngsters to play in the Ressies.
A repeat of this scenario would mean they will retain the talent to do it again.

....with a side benefit of the senior side winning their comp as well.

I seem to recall we had a lot of injuries in the 2's towards the end of the season thats why clubs got close to them in the finals.

So there was a lot more merit in the win than they get credit for.

What's the record for the most Premierships in a row in the ACTFL?

They'll find it significantly tougher this year I reckon.

Nicks and Schauble were very important contributors and Saddo was more than useful. These players have been replaced by 18 and 19yos.

Schaubs was excellent during the finals. He had a real presence across half back, especially when things got a bit dodgey at times.

Depends if they lose Spriggs to the Seniors.

They'll do well but I doubt they will remain unbeaten. A lot will depend on the young KPP drafted in and whether they can fill the shoes of Schaubs, Saddo and perhaps Vogels/Grundy when they get called up to the seniors.
