What has been disappointing since 3P started their campaign and after the election, is the constant and deliberate drip feeding of the media from within the club.
Player acquisitions are one thing, but the fact that the board are considering other options regarding the coach must be kept confidential. Who in their right mind who inform the media of this ? What benefit is there for anyone ?
A new coach failing in his first year to make the top eight is understandable. He is rebuilding and restructuring.
But when a coach in his second year fails to make the top 8 then he should be sacked. His vision has all but failed.
(Refer to the renovation job - Off course some players emotions are in turmoil as the builder and his workers rip into the guts of this old house - some players have to go - off course it's a messy job ripping out players no longer part of the club - Even though I may not agree in how the renovations were gone about, I give All power to Daniel Anderson because he is the one doing ALL the dirty work, not me - it's so easy to be a critic sitting at a great distance from all the builders mess (renovation work) - When the job is done I'll check it out then.... obviously at one of the many NRL GF the Eels will be competing in.)
Whats worse is DA has been handed one of the most talented and skilled team in the NRL and simply could do nothing with them. Apart from The Chosen Ones inspired GrandFinal run, take him out and Parra would be fighting for the wooden spoon. Lets not forget the single most loss of junior players in one year leaving our club.
DA has shown as a coach he cannot get the best out of our players....(Mateo, Inu), any game structure, passion or future recruiting plans.
But what DA lacks it what makes a GREAT coach. A GREAT coach fires up his team every week, inspires his players and generates passion, pride and respect. This is what wins games. You can have all the attack, defence plans you want but when players don't turn up, its over.
I hope we make the finals. We can do it. But its because the players are now playing for each other.... not for DA. Its the teams last year together before some leave or retire. This might be whats needed to give us a fighting spirit our coach has failed to inspire.
Now the club is deserting him. We are recruiting players without his knowing or consent. Clearly he is coaching his last year. Time for a different coach. DA had his chance and blew it. Goodbye and good riddance.
You want to renovate a house, its a huge renovation, you contract the builder to do the job and in the midst of the knock-down stage of the renovations the house is in a f**king mess and so the owners want to find another builder to clean up the f**king knock-down mess before completing all the new renovations, the very same renovations the original builder has yet to get started on properly.......
This shows you how f**king stupid and self-centered some of these 3P board members are.
Daniel Anderson needs to be given the freedom and trust to professional perform his job of rebuilding the Eels Squad into the image that he, the fans and the management dream for .... GF success.....
f**k off 3P.....

I agree.I think the board members who are leaking the info should be weeded out so we can send them packing. It's a bit of a joke how they are operating.
It's well known who they are.
This is the worst thread on this forum ever.
Is this the 3P style????
Because if it is, then those behind removing Daniel Anderson need to be booted out of this club real fast.
What a bunch of f**king idiots.
A mutiny is required. f**k off 3P, bunch of jerks..
It seems Daniel is his own man and needs to be fully supported for the 3 year tenure of his contract, allowing him the time and space to create a squad, etc, in his image.
He has been hacking through the dense Hagan & Smith forest to carve a path through to the making of his dream-team and now in mid-stream while hacking away, doing all the dirty work, these 3P idiots want to remove him.
This is bullsh*t.
A bounty of dismissal should be put on the heads of every 3P member involved in removing Daniel.
We need stability NOW, not more knee jerk reactions.
He does not have guts.
whever a board starts sticking their nose into running the team things start going downhill look at piggins at souths and allegedly the sharks chairman was feuding with stuartIf it is true that some or all directors want Ando gone then it is an absolute disgrace!
At least back the coach to get the players he wants, and then judge him on his performance.
I am sure if 3P had signed him, and not Fitzy, there would be no such talk.
we ARE privvy to what goes on behind closed doors it all ends up in the telegraph!not all board members are 3P
and we are not privvy to what goes on behind closed doors ( or what should be closed doors)
we can only speculate and get caught up in all the BS
I will wait until the board come out and say it publicly
wasn't it the telegraph that said we're getting sticky as coach?
