Anyone can sack a bunch of players, or watch as they run from the flaming train wreck. I'm saying that there needs to be signs of improvement in the squad that Brown has or questions should be asked. Has he shown that he can coach? Everyone bar Ross, dan saifiti and Barnett went backwards last year. If he can coach I would expect to see players playing more to their potential. Brown said they focused on defence last year and it was comically bad. Blaming everything on Hagan and stone is a cop out in regards to individuals efforts.
Anyway, we might not win many games but fans should be seeing a more competitive team at least with less drubbings. That's a low bar to clear.
There aren't many coaches with the balls to do what Brown has done after one year and keep forging through. The bloke has done an outstanding job and handled himself in the media better than anyone could have expected.
For Christ sake, how many players did Brown move around last year and try in different positions? Countless. How many babies did he have in the side? How many made their debuts? Effing heaps.
You should know what he was doing and why he was doing it. If he does that again this year I'll change my tune.
Did you think he was going to turn them into rep stars after playing a few games in firsts??
C'mon.
And I do see the Hagan/Stone/ Bennett years as the main cause of the shit heap Brown has had to clean up.
And that's because it is.
I agree we don't know how good a coach he is and will be with the team he is attempting to build so the jury is out on that one. Let's give it some time hey.
You only need to look at the Broncos, who get every favour imaginable, and have not won a comp in a decade. Then look at what we have and the favours we get and the shit Brown has had to push up hill and will continue to push for a while yet.
If anyone's head should be on the chopping bloke it will be Bennett's after this season if Brisbane fail again, not Brown.
