    Why is Matthew Elliott such a terrible coach?

    This is spot on Elliott does not have the luxury of a full squad at the moment . Although I'm not too thrilled with his appointment & dubious about his game knowledge atm I'm prepared to give him a shot. Until we have more player options available it's not realistic to judge his coaching...

    Positivly Elliott

    I'm not at all convinced Elliot is as good as he thinks he is. Unfortunately Warriors do not have a CEO who is passionate about RL and in my thinking that's a big problem. What could a Todd Greenberg achieve with our motley lot. We can but dream.

    A Warriors haka?

    I blame O'G's 'bright ideas' and lack of lucidity on the fact he was born in India - too hot and spends most of his life in the sun. Unless I'm mistaken it's a long time since he lived long term in NZ. Can't we just have a team/ club song like any other normal sporting franchaise & keep the...

    F.O Sir Owen,,,,

    Sir Owen - you threw a paddy when rugby told you you couldn't be a loose unit with your own team - wish Warriors had done the same.

    Troubles in Panthertown?

    In an ideal world Oz but that's a way off IMO and if the Warriors could be a more productive team in the short term by taking on with talented players from outside NZ I don't have a problem with that.

    Troubles in Panthertown?

    I'd swap Packer for Grant without thinking twice & Coote would be worth considering for full back . However I'm wise enough to realise neither are likely to be considered by the Warriors - too 'spensive and non- Kiwi. They won't fit the envisaged NZ born dream team of the future.

    Where are we at.

    So-So at this stage. I like the additions & alterations to the training/ coaching personnel. With all the support to hand M E & his troupe should be able to bring about a significant improvement on last year. He's got my vote definately. It's the sewage blockage that built up in the back...

    Dean Bell

    It's difficult for me to feel positive about next season the way things are going . This year has been less than satisfactory & I think we were all led to believe and happy to believe that we wouldn't witness another year like this but tbh all I see is more of the same. Incompetence, penny...

    Loyal

    Now that deal is shitty. Don't suppose they put on cheap flights so you can enjoy the home games you can't realistically drive to.

    Season Review.

    Yeah that's how the year went. Well written . I wonder if B Mac chose Manu for captain as he thought the team would make an extra effort with MV being the elder statesman so to speak. It's a shame Manu didn't make more of the opportunity instead of bleating on 40/20 about how he hated every...

    Loyal

    That email made me very very angry. No season tickets for my lot this time round. If there is a marked improvement as the season progresses we will go to a few home games but this is my way of showing my disgust & if that means I'm not loyal so be it.

    Dean Bell

    My guess is that Bell will be the eyes & ears over the coaching team. Apparently Scurrah is going to have little to do with the players etc so he needs a spy to keep backsides covered - especially if Iro moves on.

    Kevin Locke - Naughty boy

    He did, & stated that Lockies a "good Kid''. :lol: Silly Mr M E

    Kevin Locke - Naughty boy

    What the hell is going on with Locke. He's not a kid & he risks opportunities other young guys can only dream of. I suppose it's our fault.. we took him from zero to hero & stuck him on that pedestal. It seems that the respect / mana that we keep hearing about relating to certain coaches &...

    Dean Bell

    Another crap decision from the Warriors high & mighty. Bell was one who definately should have gone. If this is the re-structuring process then it's on freaking shaky foundations.

    Waiting in the Wings

    Bit of a shock to see Tupou make such a disaster of FG. I'm for letting the new coach work with him if M E thinks there's some hope. Fish is a speedster & should shape up well in the position but if he's still adamantly holding out for the F B job , he's not going to put heart & soul into a...

    Unprofessionalism

    Yeah I realise it's a tough call, same as Manu but those senior players, if not directly involved, must have been aware of the team's actions to bring down the coach. If we in the stands were horribly aware of what was going on I don't believe such experienced old hands in the team were...

    Unprofessionalism

    Very interesting Q & A. I really hope Elliott gets the support etc that he needs to do this job but my gut feeling is that Scurrah will continue to be the penny pinching back stabber we all recognise & the future may be less rosy than we have been led to believe. IMO to progress the club...

    Unprofessionalism

    Supposedly this is a new era for the Warriors so with O G in town now would be a good time for the boss to give these smartarses the message -It won't make any difference to some & they will pay for their arrogance but it may just help a few see the stupidity of their actions.
