Well the cultural excuse is an absolute load of Malarky .


Didn’t we hire Elkin from Cronulla?? Wasn’t BA when here we cheated the cap?? People somehow forget about that yet give it to Flanagan lol.


There is no way Bea Arthur would hire anyone like Flanagan because he is a threat to his job, he hires dolts and yes men who are happy to implement his 5 hit and a bomb rubbish. It’s a reason Holbrook was pushed out of the joint ASAP.


The best coaches put the best people around them as possible??? Does Bea do this?? No way, and then he wonders why we are still a dumb team after 7 years. Well duhhhhhhhh!!!!! It shows in the coaching and the way we play. The team should be congratulated on making 3rd despite the quality of the coaching staff.
Flanno has been killing it at the Dragons.

Let’s bring in an assistant who helped his team ‘move up 3 places’ from plop to still plop.
lol you are blaming the Dragons shit show on him??? Mary didn’t want him even at the club how much say would he even had??

Do you honestly believe Bea Arthur puts the best people around him as possible???


Look at Trent Robinson and the look at Bea. One is confident in his own abilities and the other is terrified of losing his Gravy Train.

Did he hire him??? Has he hired anyone else?? That’s a big no.


Still has the same dopes around him he did when we won a spoon. My point still stands.

You know that it's the HOF's call these days ?

If you want to chuck a wobbly, it should be aimed at Mark O'Neill.

Just pointing out flaws in your reasoning and arguments. You are selectively blaming BA for things that you don’t blame others for.

I’m all for getting BA help and even replacing him with a better option, but some of the shit you muppets dribble is beyond stupid.

This is the part I don’t get, people are carrying on like we had a season of 3/17 or something!
We need small changes, not turn the place upside down
Our regular season was good. Our finals was not. We just had 74 points put on us in 2 games. Getting bundled out in week 2 of the finals year on year is not what we should be aspiring to. And we have had improvements to the roster.

Not only that, we have a GM of Footy who overseers the squad and works with the coach and retention committee. The theory is that when the coach reaches his use by date we can simply unplug and slot in his replacement without having to rebuild and all those excuses that come with coach rotation.

Buckets is a impressive guy and worth a listen on the Talking with TK podcast.
Absolutely agree Gronky that this is how it should be. But is it? Unless its changed BA reports to the CEO not the HoF. I suspect this is changing though and so it should.
