How good !

We often bag BA as being clueless, but some of the things he said in that video are bang on, imo.

Perhaps he's not so useless?

I don't know.

 

[Eelementary]

I’m sure @hineyrulz will appreciate what he has to say.

I appreciate hiney's passion, like everyone else's.

Dunno about that, 13 year old Jake sitting in the assistants chair pulled his Dad up once.

And how much are Bellamy, Robinson, Cleary and Bennett being paid Poo?

How much are they worth?

 

[Suitman]

How much are they worth?

You tell us.
And you didn't answer the question.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

And who develops these players Poo ffs.

You'd think the clubs with the money to poach all the best juniors would also have the money to poach all the best junior coaches. They would have the best facilities too.

 

[Gary Gutful]

No. He is useless.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Why don't you tell us? I don't know how much anyone gets paid, and unlike you merkins, I don't automatically believe what's in the papers.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Well thank goodness we don't have to play Penrith or Melbourne 3 or 4 weeks in a row.

Exactly. If we meet one of them in the finals we might be close to 50% chance of winning. But if we play them in successive weeks I don't like our chances.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

So paying overs for Gutho for 4 more years wasn’t the greatest decision by the club then???

We don't know how much he's getting paid but I suspect it's overs, and if so it's because of what he offers for driving the culture rather than his cool head on game day.

That's what Jake is for.

Hiney's passion can be dangerous.

One minute you are enjoying a Kraken, the next you've woken up in a phone box in Gympie with a sore arse and a shaved head.

All of sudden he drives past in his Yaris offering to "take you home" and you have a life changing decision to make.

Who says we do?

 

[Poupou Escobar]

So none of us know what they're getting paid? Glad we agree

Money, FFS!!

You merkins might learn something from today's article:

If you can't read there's a video on the same page.

 

[Gary Gutful]

Is there a video?

There’s no reliable way to beat the better teams 3-4 weeks in a row. That’s why they’re the better teams. There’s no tactical trick that will do it. The best you can hope for is to be as good as them and then you have a 50% chance of beating them. Over two games that’s a 25% chance of winning both. Over three games against equal opponents you’re a 1-in-8 (12.5%) chance of winning all three games. You think some sneaky tactic will turn that into 100% chance? You’ve been watching too many family movies from the 80s.
