Do you want Brad Arthur as coach

[Poupou Escobar]

like it all magically going to work one day. It must be unbearable being Barret - even with all his coaching deficiencies

Our set completions have fallen off a cliff since Barrett joined the club. Not that it's proof that it's his fault, but he certainly hasn't improved us.

 

[Avenger]

They could announce his departure and replacement at anytime. The announcement doesnt need to wait until the end of the season.

He won't put up with that. He will quit, just like Brian Smith did in 2006.

 

[Avenger]

I'm pretty sure we are in almost an identical position that we were in last year. 8 points after 11 rounds.

Surely our For and Against is worse this year?

 

[Poupou Escobar]

It is difficult to comprehend his importance to our defensive resolve. Surely it can't be the case that these f**kers have no f**ken idea what to do if he's not on the field?

What is the purpose of leadership? I don't think telling merkins "what to do" is the major part of it. Trust and confidence are what leaders provide to a group.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

To be honest, Moses and Gutho both being out has been a positive, because it has exposed how deficient the coaching of this team has been for too many years, and demonstrated just how much Moses and Gutho have been able to just keep us competitive.

We've been a complete and utter rabble since Moses got injured.

I knew we were f**ked at the time, and indicated so, but not even I thought we'd turn into this level of insipid tripe.

That's why they're on the big bucks.

Paulo and Drown are likely on more than Gutho

 

[Poupou Escobar]

I'd love him at Newcastle United.

I want him at Smerkinhorpe United.

I'm so glad you've provided both, in your "leadership" to us mere merkins on here.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Paulo and Drown are likely on more than Gutho

Drown yes, Paulo no.

Anyway, Drown is a much better player than Gutherson. Losing him last year derailed our season. Gutherson's loss this year came on the back of losing Moses, and we were already f**ked when Gutherson went down. He played 80 minutes in the Raiders and Dolphins losses.

Drown yes, Paulo no.

What was our record without Drown last year? Didn’t we win more than we lost?

 

[eel01s]

Although we still have the mythical "mathematically possible" chance of making the finals, surely the Board can see it won't matter even when Moses and Gutho return.

The time to act is now. Tell BA he won't be here next season, and appoint the new coach asap so they can begin reworking the roster.

Oh, and get on the phone to Bennett now and trump South's offer.

Last year I don’t think we had a bye yet, so we are a win behind this year. Our for and against is much worse this year.

I actually don't blame Barrett. We are so slow and clunky in attack and poor in defence WTF is our head coach doing when the team is training? He appoints his assistants FFS.

We won 4+23 games at this time last year we have won 3-103

Going worse this year definitely

 

[Pazza]

If the prospect of having Bennett at the club didnt move the needle.... nothing will.

he'll be here long term

 

[King-Gutho94]

What was our record without Drown last year? Didn’t we win more than we lost?

Yep 4 wins 3 losses during Drown 7 week ban.

 

[Chipmunk]

Last year I don’t think we had a bye yet, so we are a win behind this year. Our for and against is much worse this year.

To be fair we lost quite a few close games early in the season and we were playing a lot better then than now.

 

[Matty Bhoy]

Bennett hasn’t been formally announced yet has he?

 

[Noise]

Bennett hasn’t been formally announced yet has he?

No but the word was it would happen after magic round.

 

[the phantom menace]

Bennett hasn’t been formally announced yet has he?

Meeting Solly tomorrow apparently, to negotiate his contract details.
