Hope it’s not nearing its end as we just resigned him and he still has 3.5 years to play.
And I reckon publicly hanging out with known criminals may have not have helped his reputation

What do you mean maybe? That's exactly what happened. We bought players to suit the rules of the time, which made it harder to go around teams.
So you agree the game plan hasn't changed in 10 years then...
No I said it was different prior to 2019.
No. It’s the same. We just had players in the last few years that could carry it out. Now all the players bodies are tired of “chasing the collision”. We need to change the plan to suit our aging forward pack or change the players.
Then you missed Pazza's point...
They could carry it out in 2016 and 2017 as well. We won 29 games over those two years.
Every club chases the collision. It's rugby league ffs, not Oztag.
It is 80 minutes out of a week of 10080 minutes. The players are fine. Matterson, Yeo and Haas are all still taking plenty of runs and killing it. This year Matterson and Gutherson are still our most prolific runners but now Dylan Brown has jumped ahead of the other forwards for runs per game. That's evolution.
He was implying every season before 2019 was as bad as 2018. It's factually incorrect.
No, he was stating that the game plan hasn't changed in that time - even if the calibre of players to suit the game plan has.
But it has changed. We didn’t have the players in 2016/2017 to play through the middle so we didn’t. We attacked the edges. In 2018 the ruck slowed down and defences were all off their line quickly, so shifting the ball became too risky. We didn’t have the players to adjust to the new rules so we went out and bought them, specifically Ferguson and Paulo.
That's because confirmation bias tells you the coach is too stupid to adapt, even though the stats show different tactics every game (e.g. ratio of touches for the two halves, or runs for the two edge forwards and centres, or minutes played by Junior Paulo). Unless you look at the stats you will miss these nuances and just think you're seeing what you expected to see.Seems like it's been the same for 10 years to me...
No, it's because I was making a joke that our game plan seems to mainly be hope and pray....
1983 ... a good year
I reckon hes got short eye site and watching it live on fox but somebody paused it for like 10 mins that's why his interchanges are always too late
