    Match Discussion: Round 26 vs Gold Coast @ McDonald Jones Stadium, New Lambton / Awabakal

    f**k Bennett. I hope we demolish them next week.

    Match Discussion: Round 26 vs Gold Coast @ McDonald Jones Stadium, New Lambton / Awabakal

    I mean, if we get in that’s four out of the last five finals series. When is the last time the Knights have done that?

    Match Discussion: Round 25 vs South Sydney @ Accor Stadium, Sydney Olympic Park / Wanngal

    Parra beats the Dragons next week (on the basis the Sharks flog them tomorrow). Broncos and Dolphins draw. We beat the Titans - we are in the 8. Never in doubt!

    Sack Adam O'Brien

    I haven’t missed any either, but I can assure you my contract doesn’t say they can punt me because I miss it once. Coaching is a bit different because they are a contractor to the club and not an employee, but even still a trigger to get rid of him if they miss the 8 wouldn’t be palatable to...

    Sack Adam O'Brien

    If you read the Herald article, when Peter Parr was questioned he was “unaware of the specifics of the coaches deal”. How does the football manager not know these things?

    Sack Adam O'Brien

    You keep bringing up a News Limited hacks comment about no one else wanting to sign him when we extended him. I get what you are saying. The point remains that people in the club made the decision to extend him. He’s not the one to blame for that decision. Your frustration is misguided. Get...

    Sack Adam O'Brien

    It’s like you are blaming him for signing the contract extension that was offered to him…

    Sack Adam O'Brien

    A coach wouldn’t even get to the point of deciding to take such a contract. Their manager wouldn’t accept such a clause. Would you sign a contract where you could get the sack for missing a KPI or a target? f**k no.

    Sack Adam O'Brien

    You aren’t getting any coach signing a contract saying they can be sacked for not finishing top 8.

    Sack Adam O'Brien

    We don’t have to agree. It’s a contract. If the club finishes bottom 5 at any point, the coach position should be reviewed no matter who it is. The football manager should be reviewed. The recruiter, the CEO, the captain. All of them. The coach position is just an easy one to whip pretending...

    Sack Adam O'Brien

    It’s a trigger to review his contract if it really goes wrong. It’s not “striving for excellence” - it’s competent contract law. I’d be shocked if most coaching contracts of that term doesn’t have such triggers.

    Rumoured Targets 3

    Phil Gardiner is a great financial manager. The way Wests have grown under his management is super impressive. He’s realised that he isn’t a football manager and has finally bitten the bullet and got some real people in to do the job. As long as he lets them do their job and just focus on the...

    Match Discussion: Round 24 vs Cronulla @ PointsBet Stadium, Woolooware / Dharawal

    Someone gets it. There are signs of progress there. I love the fact we are seeing the future of the club being developed - like Lucas and Sharpe. Last years ride into the finals was great fun. That’s the stuff that makes supporting the team worth it.

    Match Discussion: Round 24 vs Cronulla @ PointsBet Stadium, Woolooware / Dharawal

    Why do you even bother? Like seriously. If that’s the way you see things, you have much, much better things you could be doing with your time.

    Match Discussion: Round 24 vs Cronulla @ PointsBet Stadium, Woolooware / Dharawal

    It’s only fun now you’ve been called out on it… I’m not wasting my Sunday arvo being doom and gloom about the team I love. f**k that. That’s what’s cringey.

    Match Discussion: Round 24 vs Cronulla @ PointsBet Stadium, Woolooware / Dharawal

    Being one of the very few who goes against the “sky is falling” mentality here, and not scared to voice it, what suggests I am remotely worried about being criticised for it? If I was worried, I would have left here years ago. I don’t care about not being one of the sheep.

    Match Discussion: Round 24 vs Cronulla @ PointsBet Stadium, Woolooware / Dharawal

    Another who doesn’t like to be challenged… I have a different point of view and don’t follow the forum line of “everything is a disaster, everyone should be sacked, burn the place down” and it gets under your skin, like it does his. I quite enjoy it. I’ve been here long enough to not give a...

    Cool. Who coaches us then?
