Anyone still want to sack Flanno?

We are very close to a loss or 2, which may not be a bad thing.

Main thing is, we have the runs on the board.

Thought we were going to crack a loss last Saturday.Bleeding heart attack material.Really shat me when reject Shark's players scored the first two tries.:eek:

Still if we can win playing average ,then I give us some hope against the Storm.


Agree ATM the Storm appear to be the real worry, in us getting a lump of silverware in our barren cabinet.

I think we are in a mini slump those games against Eagles & Warriors not at our best.

The effects of playing teams like Dogs & Cowboys, lifting to win those.

Players backing up after origin as well.

I do think we are in mini slump but finding a way to win, last year, those 4 games listed above we most probably split them, but team has belief now, we have players who can win those games, not just 1 player but basically everyone on the park has shown the ability to be involved in match winning situations.

This example did not win us the match against Warriors, but the quick thinking of Prior to pass ball whilst he is on his back to give CT chance with FG, other years that dosent happen, all the players have the belief and rightly so can win from any situation on the park.

I'd tell him to try having a back on the bench. We nearly came unstuck when val went off.

I'd tell him we need another true prop on the bench. We are seriously undersized and have trouble making metres when Fifita goes off.

Tell him sign Fifita's brother, he's carving it up in super league.

Seriously though, the gulf between the 2 comps is as wide as ever.

There is basically 5 clubs who cannot make the 8 or take miracle

Parra, Souths, Manly, Roosters & Knights.

Flanno if he hasnt should be talking to all of them looking for a cheap prop they dont want, will help them cap wise and benefit us, even if player just for remainder of 2016

Not playing well and still winning during origin period. Only a positive.

Just as a side note, positive auto corrected to peptide on my iPhone initially. It's a sign. We got this. Trust in Flanno. (TIF).

I would congratulate him on his teams 11 straight wins. But I would like to train his team to do two things that are critical in golden point games.
1. Get the field goal done early, very early.
2. Train to get the ball back from the kickoff. We must get good at this with specialist players on both side of the field able to compete. The more we do this in week to week play the better we will get.
This will be the difference in the finals series where the teams will be closely matched.
If Flanno adopts these tactics it will say a lot about how he thinks and if he should stay at the Sharks long time.

Because it is the measure of a good coach

All the good coaches use the short kick off as that is a very successful tactic

What can possibly go wrong.....
