2. 2020 Season
The Cowboys were hugely underwhelming in 2020, missing the finals by ten points, plus points differential. They were so bad that previously lauded coach Paul Green was sacked.
Valentine Holmes started the season on fire but soon fell victim to a loss of form and found himself on the wing. Injury then limited his involvement.
Michael Morgan also fell to injury and only ran out on six occasions. Obviously if you take a superstar the quality of Morgan out of any side, they will struggle. That said, the Cowboys had no answers without their halfback.
Five wins across 20 regular season games is awful, especially for a side with this much potential. Many, myself included, had them in the race for the top eight.
They were one of the sides who struggled with the new rules, often being carved up their usually reliable middle.
Despite their awful form, Kyle Feldt had the top try scorers award in his hands before a ridiculous five-try performance by Alex Johnston.
The sooner that 2021 kicks off and the sooner the Cowboys and their fans can forget 2020 the better.
