    Just what it says. What are our options for a new forward. Sormun's chance to tell us all about those Kickers studs.

    There are none, otherewise they would either be here or somewhere else in the league...

    Again, the season is only 5 games old...

    Why don't you ask Los Angeles, Dallas and Colorado how their doing at the present time?

    If you didn't know, they all have equal or less points than we do at the moment...

    Cweepchop,

    You manage to say what I'm thinking. My comment was to be "There are none".

    As I said at the begining of the season, who is going to score for this team? I was hoping that Quaranta would come into his own this year ala Twellman and that Stewart and Eski would be servicable, but that's not the case.

    In the longer run we need to exchange Etch for a forward allocation.

    Nick is probably right - wait 'till next year. Our problem is that our forwards don't have roles. Who is our runner/poacher? Who will hold the ball and play w/ his back to goal more? It seems that Quaranta can hold the ball OK, but that leaves Eskandarian and Stewart to poach? Yikes... Thank God we're about to pick up a defender! Hopefully he can at least play outisde back.
