Listened to NRL360 pod from last nights show about BA. Their flip-flopping gibber "he's a great coach" "yeah but 9 years" "it's up to the players now, BA has protected them enough" "yeah but 35 years" "they don't have a goat" "the fans have had enough " "look with squad they have, they've done great" is an example of this sites fruit salad of opinions. All good points. No solid collective agreement on the way to assured success.

Footy people don't know how to admit nothing is simple.

Pou is a man of his word. And so am I.
I'm a man of my word but I'm also not f**king stupid. If we fail to make week three there's no need for you to gloat. Every finals match we lose I will make several hundred dollars with Sportsbet. If you don't get your money it will mean we won and I lost plenty on the punt. It's win-win for me, and the death riders will deserve their spray.

Why would I gloat? I'll just make up a fairly unbelievable story is all.

I think their collective thoughts pretty much echo most of our thoughts - he's a solid coach, who did a wonderful job.

But he's stale, and we could use some fresh ideas.

It's probably no different to the death riders except when we lose I get money instead of a feeling of smug

So you need the coin hit to counteract the depressive state you find yourself in when BA's systems continually don't deliver despite yourself putting him above most coaches in the nrl. If you were realistic like myself and many here, you wouldn't need the hit as we understand Arthur as a half decent coach but no more, he doesn't cut it when it comes to the crunch games. His finals record is proof to that. Only beating a bum of a team in Newcastle and the donkeys who'd done f**k all in the years beforehand and after.
