Who do ppl think these players are that would be knifing the coaches? We have pretty much no leaders in the team, who has the balls to knife the coach?

I heard Leuluai approached Elliot a couple of weeks ago saying the game plans were to complex and things just need to be simplified.

Same thing happened at Penrith for Elliott as well, but wonder why Mannering didn't approach him or the entire leadership group

Was that this year? Or last year?

If this is true about Elliott and it appears it is then Scurrah must walk if he is true to his word, we had a chance for Bellamy but they were not prepared to wait a year and then said Elliott was their first choice, which we all know was bullshit. Scurrah said if Elliott was gone then so was he, or words to that effect.

When was this?

Hari Kari. If this is true, and I think it probably is, it is a stupid move.
The fans are pissed off now - more at management than the coach I feel.
If Elliott goes & Scurrah doesn't follow my membership card goes back.

If Wayne goes then this could be the start of something very good

Would liked to have kept Matty on as a media role foe the Warriors

Same. I had this nice tidy vision of Elliot seeing out 2014, hopefully making the 8, and a flash new coach taking over in 2015 with Elliot moving into some kind of media / manager role. He's a smart, media-savvy guy. Pity to lose him entirely.

But yeah player power talks...

It's all been said , but how unprofessional is this club!!!!
What descent coach would every put up their hand to run the risk of moving their life and family to NZ to not even have their contract honored!
Next coach pushes them to hard, bitches be like he got to go! F&%k me!
I'm with others, it might be getting close to putting a touch to the place and watching the rats run out!

How complex is holding onto the god dam ball?
Maybe Elliot talks about velocity and momentum? Bit to complex for these dumb shits?

Anyone else seen anything to complex on the field?

The way I see it is this. Our current predicament is probably about 33% players accountable (at least), 33% coaching, and 33% management. Yet for some reason each year the team sacks the coach and then carries on business as usual with management and players, and nothing ever changes.

I'm not sad to see ME go. He's never been a good coach at any club and the owners were delusional to think he'd be different here.

But, this coaching change must be followed by management changes, and a serious look at the players.

And for god sake don't hire another loser coach. Get a good hard-nosed coach who won't take any shit and will demand respect and performance, or don't get anyone at all.

All O can say is if Elliot gets canned the ones that hired him in the first place should be packing their bags as well.
Since when was it the job of an NRL first grade coach to show a team how to hold on to a ball and pass it?

Would be quite happy to see someone come in and move
On mateo, laumape,Locke, gubb, Sam L and a couple others to start fixing the culture -
Muts, fish and Johnson so be given similar 'grow up or piss off' instructions.

Build the club around guys who actually want to be there and who are prepared to put in; tommy, rapira, Manu, tomkins, lillyman, friend, mannering, mataigi, palavi, lolohea, sione l, lisone, Vete, fusitua, hukatai, RFM, Kata etc

Damn, I'd rather give poaching another run in first grade a head of some of the others...
