This is what I am waiting to be answered. All we hear is he has under achieved. So what is the bar? I think some want perfection always

When we attack I can't really see what the structures are trying to achieve. Even when the Knights were at their worst I could see what Brown had them working towards. Watching Knights play and us I'd take Brown over Griffin based on how they get their teams playing.

The bar should be us being a legitimate premiership threat.

Is Hook capable of getting us there? If not we're wasting a great roster on a coach that isn't good enough.

If we don't get a premiership from all the money and effort put into rebuilding the team then we have underachieved.

Yet we have made finals three years straight with loads of injuries and lots of kids. Regardless of what you think of Hook his record here is very good. If he is replaced who comes in? Is anybody else who is available likely to do any better?

See me previous comment.

We have beaten 2 top 4 teams. Have improved on from last year . Further improvement is clearly needed but we are improving slowly

Yet we have the 5th best attack in the Comp though

We were slowly improving. And then we turned to shit and are currently arguably the worst we havd been since Hook arrived. We had 50 put on us last week. And 24 put on us this week by a spoon contender.

We need to improve quickly if we want to be a premiership contender. Beating Souths in Round 2 or Dragons in Round 12 count for nothing if we are shit right now.

It seems when there's talk of others coaching we play well when that talk stops we go bad again. Probably coincidence.

So we should sack him because of his record with the Broncos? What a ridiculous argument. At least we now all know that your position it isn’t based on anything logical.
Stacked squad who has only really fired under him at the end of 2016. This year looked promising but we are now in a massive hole. Start of the year I said we'd make the finals and be no threat once we got there, I'm looking right

I wonder that too. It would have to be an internal person I think. Given our guys are locked in

Wasn't the argument all off season. Top 4 where the teams finish is all that counts?

We gained more metres than both Sharks and Broncos. More linebreaks too. Again on Sat we bombed 2 certain tries. Finishing breaks and defence are a concern now but if we fix it who knows

I know it shouldn't matter but he was one of the worst footballers to ever play for us and I'd find it hard to believe players would listen to him. He was so f**king soft

I doubt it would matter. He seems to be getting groomed for the position. Unless Gus reaches out to Freddie.

Yes top 4 week 3 of finals. Though it might not matter based on what @Panther_Daz said. We know he's reliable so something is not to satisfaction.
