DLE Razorbacks midseason s6
This is not the usual grand pressconference. Once again the housereporter Robbert Graaf has a sit down with someone inside the Razorbacks organisation.
Today RG is meeting with Former Razorback Blitzer Arthur Haldenhoff, now defensive coach of the Razorbacks to talk about 1st half of the season, 2nd half season expectations, the midsason tradewindow.

RG: Thanks for taking the time to see me at this busy last day of the midseason tradingwindow. Why have you been so active this window? 4 trades made. that is almost as many as the franchise ever made in the past?

AH: Well. We didn't win as much as we hoped in the first 9 games, so we stepped back and looked at our current players. And we could see, that the squad needed a new gameplan and design. So we started trading, some of the lesser used players away, and got in some new blood to fill the void.

RG: But the team is 3/3/3 and no 10 in Karl Franz Conference. Why not make the fans happy and pursue the chance of playoff?

AH: It is a close race, but our team took some hits, and were not in the best shape. Besides out best shot was a wildcard, as Scimitars and Eagles are ahead of us in points and quality of the squad. Being 3rd in the division means we should claim both wildcard to KFC South. Not likely with both Classics/Patriots and Cardinals/Foxes/Universe in front of us. We do face Cards/Foxes/universe in this last part of the season. But we don't expect to beat them all as we probably should in order to get the wildcard.

RG: The fans will not be happy with 7 games just thrown away like this. And giving up on playoff. What do you have to say to them?

AH: The fans must have faith in us. We will come back bigger and better next season. This window was exactly about preparing for the next season. We start every season as a push season, but this season we must look facts in the eyes. This is not our year. So better prepare for next season, than lose half the squad trying to do the imposible.

RG: In this window you made 4 trades! From a team not trading much, this is huge. Talk us through it.

AH: Well. We had a plan for Blitzer Doc Holliday(Dodge/DT/Tackle) but his injury with -MA made us walk away from that. He was not happy with how he was used in the team and wanted to see more action, so he was out. We also send Catcher Corey Fuller (MA9/SS/Sprint/Surefeet) on his way as he would be hard to protect properly with his AV6.

Then out of nowhere Eagles signed Killstack Blitzer Mack from Patriots, so we wanted to act. Then we got in a DP so them eagles can PO all they like. We will be ready for them. Same goes for Blitzer Jonny Jones(Tackle/MB). He will be a good asset in protecting our big stars for next season. And we are ready to soften up our divisional rivals in our games with them, so they are not as ready for next season.

On top of this we now sit on 5 picks for the draft. 1x 1st round, 2x 2nd round, 2x 3rd round. We are well set to trade up or down or to the future, if we don't lose anyone the next 7 games.

RG: Finally. How come the defense as fallen apart is no longer in the top of the league?

AH: This is not part of the interview!

RG: But the fans and press want to know!

AH: ehrm... okay. We took a gamble with Doc Holliday. It didn't work as he had a hard time understanding the playbook, and it cost us on several occations. Now he is gone, so we can hopefully return to better defensive plays with players who wants to be part of the team and the Razorback family.

And with this I, Robbert Graaf, finish the interview with Haldenhoff. Better not dig further in why the defence has not worked properly. I want to be able to come back here another day.
