I am. Plenty of teams have gotten flogged one week and then won the following week. The Panthers did it this year, Souths did it twice, as did Parra, Manly abd Canberra. The Roosters have followed a flogging with a win four times this year. The Titans have done it five times! We lose a game and you f**ken idiots decide we won't ever win again. It happens year after year. Form is what happened last week. This week is a new game.

No, the odds reflect form. If the odds accurately reflected the quality of a team I wouldn't have made so much money backing roughies this year.
So by your reckoning a team that loses its last 10 games of the season is just as likely to win the competition as a team that loses its first 10 if they finish on the same number of wins for the season?
You’re also mischaracterising the aggrieved fans if you think they are pissed off because we lost one game and think we won’t win another one. This has been building for weeks. You’ve previously been above ad hominem attacks despite how much people throw at you but it seems you are starting to crack. Are you going to be willing to change your mind and admit you were wrong about the team not playing to its potential if the current trend continues?

They say that their support for BA is AS STRONG AS EVER. I am not sure they have been watching our games to be honest.
No he said his faith in Arthur is as strong as ever. And rightly so. We've been in the pit before and come out the other side. Why should this one be any different?

All that I'm saying that its almost impossible not to find fault in what we are seeing on field especially in our defensive structure and predictable attack.
Ennis and Cronk were saying it's not our defensive structure, it's our attitude and lack of effort. Fix that and your attack flows from there. Likewise, when Souths conceded 50+ twice this year they scored 0 and 12 points. Was their attacking structure suddenly f**ked that day? No. Their attack followed from poor defence. No different for us.

What do you mean, “let’s not be that club again”? We haven’t sacked anyone since Kearney in 2012. We shake his hand, thank him for winning us a spoon and send him on his way. The Tigers will sign him.
The Tigers are going backwards with a coach who has proven he can win a premiership. Why would they sign a coach who has proven he can't?

Depends why they lost those games. If they lost the first ten then started winning something must've changed. Did they get some merkins back from injury? Were some off field distractions resolved? If they lose the last ten and the same changes occur is there enough time to build some form going into the finals? Probably not.

should we front load our effort?

Just my opinion that BA is the type of guy who will walk if he doesn’t think he can get us any further…..

Not sure. He’s a little slow between the ears tbh. Most posters here have known he can’t take us further I’m not sure he’ll figure that out by himself. He’ll need to be tapped

Because we aren’t turning this around with Arthur. He doesn’t know what’s going on or have any answers. Front loading is all he’s got.

If the Board don't sack BA they have to replace his entire coaching staff. The way things stand 2022 will be same same.

You didn’t actually bag them out!!

anyhow What does it matter what their opinion is?

there is plenty that have an opinion either way!!

But hey let’s put shit on a website that give more to fans then they take!! And that’s my whole point!!

bag out BA, call for his sacking!! Say he is crap!! But why bring TCT into it!!

I have learnt more about footy listening to their interviews with Gurr / Grima then anyone on here or TCT!!

I’ve read what they post a while a go. I honestly stopped reading because there’s too much unbiased opinions.

I think I just heard multiple hearts breaking.
I loved the Gurr chats. I didnt realise his worth at the time but there is little doubt hes being missed. Grima, not so much. He lost me when asked the question about all the rule changes and if the club as a whole ensures juniors are coached the rules. His answer was "No". It appears hes been shuffled around a bit being an assistant coach, a skills coach and now "something" to do with our juniors and a regular TCT contributor. I would think many within the current system will be seeking alternate employment once the inevitable senior role is changed.

Grima wouldn't get a gig in anywhere else in the NRL, i'll say again the standards of this club are absolutely embarrassing.

Absolutely, Arthur and his associates are the biggest failures in the identification and development of up and coming players in the history of the Eels. It's a total disaster. It's a f**k up.
On this point alone BA must be sacked immediately. And 51% still want this fool at the club ? What the f**k are you watching.
f**k off Arthur
