We seem like a risk averse and reactive club in general atm that lacks a ruthless edge.

We don't take too many risks in the player market these days.

When other teams mock us like the storm or panthers we seem to cop it on the chin without standing up for ourselves in fear of hurting anyone.

We rarely take a charge to the judiciary and when we do it's probably the wrong one.

BA has us playing a style in defence to not slow the play the ball down & push the refs that the great teams do.

yup nice guy.

All teams muck around in the ruck except us. That's why after 20mins of set to set play, we stuff up coz we get tired first or become undisciplined whereas the extra time getting set to defend the next play assist the other teams.

If you listen to TCT each week, they tell you the stat for play the ball speed and more often than not, we are slower than the opposition even if we win.

Ricky and BA are on the same timeline.

Both started in 2014 at the current jobs and both lost a GF & won nothing.

Yep I knew he was also in the same situation. Still, no one has come up with a team that had a coach for 10 years before winning a comp.

Lol, Billy Slater just said Good things comes from quick play the balls.

I think BA got it the other way... quick play the balls in attach not defense

yeah, the days with Fawcett and Scotty Mahon and Crnkovich.

The thing for me is I dont thnk BA is changing with the times coz he seems stubborn and void of risk taking so just stick to this power game and effort.

Over time, we could really fall behind and those Crnkovich days will be back coz we have a majority of 30+ year old players especially forwards

Bushy can't change with the times cause he can't. He only knows his basic tactics and thats it. He doesn't strike me as a very intelligent guy. He would be a panel beater in the real world.

We haven't had a proper cheeky merkin who at least tries to get under the other team's skin since like Kenny Edwards, let alone some hard merkin who just goes out there to belt merkins. Kane Evans I guess tried to be that, but he is shit and a soft cock so it didn't work. I suggest building a time machine, going back in time and then brining Adrian Morley back.

f**k I hate this merkin. He was happy with the team at half time. I'm cancelling my season ticket on Monday. I'll watch and support from home from now on. I'll renew the season he's gone.

Your season ticket for this year? Doesn't seem like much of a sacrifice.
