At 2 from 13 and a number of players not putting in any effort I would say we are already there



I firmly beleive in exactly what Gould pointed out. When you come through the junior ranks as a player you develop a bond to the club. Some sort of attachment like it is part of you. And when your down in the trenches it gives you thast little bit extra fight.It is kind of like fans. When someine bags your club it does leave a negative feeling.

We are a team of guys who come here for either a pay day or a chance. We lack guys who bleed blue and gold.

Of course guys like Brown,Gutherson and Gower come from elsewhere and give there all. But we have too many guys here who enjoymplaying footy but have no bond too the club at all.

2009 we had Inu,Keating,Mannah,Cayless,Grothe,Burt,Hayne,hindmarsh,Mateo,Reddy,B.Smith,Robson,Mortimer....And although MoiMoi come from Souths he was always known as a Parra boy. 14/17 will be remebered as EELS players

Now our list is
Bevan,Tepai,Mannah,Alvaro,Kaysa...... That is 5. With injuries most this year we have been lucky too have 2.

Does anyone in our side seem like the guys who would take a paycut just to stay?

Remember Grothe and Burt who never on huge money offered a pay cut for Kingston. It was team spirit.

Moses will go suck whatever cock is dishing out the most. MJ come here for the same. Line his pockets. Norman would of left for bigger bucks too. Brown and Gutherson I am also sure asked for nice upgrades due to 2017 form.
Manu got his pay day. Team is full of them.

I see a couple of guys in our team who would stay for less due to loyalty. Two guys I have bagged far too many times but now realise I was wrong.

Mannah and Alvaro.

And people who think the dogs would ever let Klemmer go are dreaming. Guys bleed blue and white. Same goes for Josh Jackson.

Woods will be released. Word is Sharks already making the deal

And as good as Semi was a player. Off the field he was a dam pest. Quickly forgotten about who gave him a chance. People who beleive he would of stayed if he was not banned from playing for Australia and the court saga are delusional. He wanted the cash and used the excuse to flatter the fans.

Maybe a better comment would be to question whether he was chosen as the attacking coach or he just landed there as there was noone else to do it.
Either way given what we have seen this season from fairly inept and completely predictable attack, questions should be asked as to whther he is the right person for that role.

Steve Murphy is the attack/backs coach. Grima is skills/development.

Lol, few years back Grima was an absolute hero on this place for what he did with our lower grades.

Now he's a chump. How quick the uneducated masses are to sling shit

He f**ken missed!

This is why gorillas never evolved

You are kidding. That is one f**king intelligent beast. It is pretty amazing that a gorilla has the knowledge to know that shit is generally considered offensive to humans, he knew exactly what was going to piss them off. He worked out how to sling shit a fair distance, and was smart enough to realise that he had to clear the fence or it was pointless.

If that wasn't smart enough, he knew he had to get the f**k out of there once done so that the humans wouldn't know who was responsible. How many animals would even think that what they were doing was considered bad behaviour.

That is one smart primate.

I was a bit bored so I thought I'd have a look at the differences in coaching staff from last year (and the year before) compared to this year. I think the biggest changes were having Gentle as forwards/defensive coach to no one, I believe BA took on the role essentially but no specialised coach was there until Kidwell came along. And having a contact/tackling coach in Brett O'Farrell, I'm unsure if he was replaced.

Many will say the difference between Ron Palmer and Lachlan Wilmot, but that position was filled so imo isn't as drastic as completely getting rid of a position.

We all have our different opinions on why the team isn't performing at their peak, I'd say it's to do with lack of spending to the football department.

Was the Titans assitant for ages. As a player I think he played touch footy, make of that what you will...

TITANS coach John Cartwright's assistant Steve Murphy will ink a $600,000 deal with Parramatta after chief executive Graham Annesley yesterday sacked seven staff in a mass shake-up of the Gold Coast.
Eighteen months after a $25 million debt nearly crippled the club, Annesley has presided over a major restructure in a cost-cutting exercise to safeguard the Titans' long-term future.
