Do you want Brad Arthur as coach

[hineyrulz]

Again with the assistants. Do you even know what they do ? How do you know that BA is not the sole decision maker for shape, set plays etc ? Where do you get your info from ? Do you think that Jason Ryles is Belly’s inhouse mastermind ? Is Nathan Cayless Trent’s secret weapon ?

Our attacking shapes have been shithouse for years with barely any change, even from the spoon winning season. Time for a change how long do the top coaches keep their assistants for??? Especially with as little success as we've had in the post season the last 8 years???

Our attack has serious limitations and no matter how you spin it we will struggle to win the big games until something is done.

Id have to agree , as a whole the team gave everything they had last night but just didnt have the strike player to break that game open. Mitchell Moses is 100% the clubs weak link time and time again when it comes to winning finals football.
He just doesnt offer much apart from kick and pray and refuses to take on the line when its needed.

Yet Cooper Cronk said it was his best most consistent season ever.

Honestly time to let it go. He left in 2017. He wasn’t the reason why they lost last night.

Nice, but you haven’t answered my question. How do you know that our assistants are the reason that we aren’t as good as you’d like ? Alternatively, how do you know that assistants are the reason why other teams do better than us ? You are manufacturing scapegoats without any tangible evidence.

The reason why Souths shape is sublime, is because of Reynolds, Walker, Gagai, Johnston… not because of Bennet / Dimitriou. Simply because they were like that with Madge and Seibold.

It’s about cattle mate.

Tigers fans should be overjoyed Luke Brooks is a proven big game performer he hasnt lost a final yet

Nah. Its about having the best shape-aticians spending 6 hours a day teaching the team shapes.

Its always something. This week its f**ken shapes.

Would merkins be happy if we keep bowing out in week 2 of the finals for 3-4 more years?

Hmm i kind of expected that reply , but i was making an honest observation about how he is veiwed by many in general league circles and zero to do with my opinion of him as an x tigers player.

Back to the cattle not being good enough again, the chicken or the egg. Is it the players or the game plan??? Or both??? Maybe it's a little of column A or column B. Would any of our assistants get a gig at the top clubs??? Thats a fair question and i seriously doubt it.

It's always something just never the coach or his staff..........

Any year we don't win a spoon is an amazing one as a Parra fan, a year when we make the finals it's time for a street parade.

I’ve got a relative who’s a tigers supporter. He’s all but wished death upon Moses since he left. To this day. Plus we always get tiger fans in here still cranky about ‘bitches’ Moses. He took on the line and unfortunately the defense was too good last night. His defense was strong. His kicking game on point. Not much more as an eels fan I could of asked from a 7.

No one is happy about the result. Panthers defense was too good. Not sure anyone would be happy with a week 2 bow out in coming years either.

If attacking coaches are such a non influence then why bother having them? Is having two players who have played origin in the spine not good enough cattle? Moses was literally picked ahead of Reynolds this season.

So what changes to help us get to a prelim or better?

And I must add, so I’m not bashed pillar to post. Unfortunately that relative is through marriage. He’s one merkin of a merkin too.
