Yep. Kevvie declared that we were going to play with a bit of pride. Carrigan was carrying the pride all year, and he has been unbothered at best today.

They want him gone.
Broncos only have to look at Souths as to why it's important to act now. Very similar situations - the players liked the coach, but they just weren't responding to him/out of ideas, and it was obvious at the end of the season.

If they wait until 6-8 weeks into next year like we did, it'll be another year down the bottom.

Personally, I hope they do wait and that Trent Barrett takes over again :D

yes, this has been said during the week by a number of commentators. Mid season sackings lead to a wasted season. Parramatta has been used as an example.

Yeah it is a disaster. DD has been a flop of a CEO and the club is run by the opinions of the old boys like a high school drama group.

I can't think of who we'd go after. Not much could be worse than Kevvie (other than TBaz) - the players aren't learning. First Gamble called it out, then Cobbo did. If Cobbo is speaking up on a podcast, well Kevvie is f**king shit. Cobbo barely speaks ffs.

Go after Willie Peters, I say. Whatever. I'm at desperation levels.

Madge would win you a comp with that crop of players.

They don't have the issue of Latrell. He's not a fullback and he's AWFUL for the culture of the club

Been saying it all year. I think there was a lot of finger pointing within the team after the GF. The year started with Carrigan and Reynolds having an on the piss scuffle, and they haven't looked a settled unit all year.

Reynolds himself just said they need to come back next year with a better attitude.
