It's interesting that the solutions for the PP outside of Palms are basically "who cares we won't win anyway, don't waste assets" and "it'll sort itself out".
Not exactly proactive approaches.
We've had three years of hyper-proactive fixing everything from the management, and the main effect has been to burn asset value and make things worse at critical moments because it takes time to build chemistry. I don't know if that's behind anyone else's thinking, but it's sure helping mine. Sometimes it's better to sit still and roll the dice, than go around flinging our last few assets at last minute gambles on getting chemistry and everything to sit up.
We might not need another PP guy. We might not be able to get him to gel. We might get a great PP but can't find a way to make him any more useful than a paperweight and crash out due to the bottom six. We might just miss the playoffs altogether due to ridiculously high levels of injuries. We might get to the playoffs and just not have the big three show well enough again.
Right now we've got potential solutions that don't involve Palmieri, and potential problems a lot bigger than him. Which is why I'm happy to sit pat and add something cheap. If the stars show, maybe we need him and maybe we don't. We certainly win without him - might be a bit lucky, but most wins are somehow. If they don't show, it doesn't matter.
And that's why I'm happy to sit pat.
