For someone who writes so much shit you don't seem to understand how an NRL team works with Coaches CEOs GM recruitment management etc.

Do you think BA is all of the above at the club?
He does. TheRam is a media victim, so he thinks the club is run by the bloke who chats to the media at full time.

Do you think that all those guys are signing players that the coach doesn't want.
You seem to think that because the coach is happy to have them in the top 30 that he thinks they’re good enough to play long minutes in first grade every week. The media f**king loves people like you. Everything is amazing or shit. There’s no middle ground. There’s no squad players or fringe first graders, just stars and park footy players. Nothing in between. No wonder you seem so confused.

Yes. There are recruitment offices and scouts and heads of football and all the rest of it, of course there are, but I guarantee you there isn't a player at the Storm that Bellamy hasn't given the OK to. He is the man and that is the way all senior(some rookies may differ a little) coaches are. When the club tries to remove that authority(look at the Dragons) the coach is on his way out.

What does our management think of our coach and how long has he been here, should give you a clue.

As for the coffee, you're his Girl Friday aren't you?

What?


Like I said Bellamy sits down after the recruitment team give him their opinion on a player.

I bet Bellamy would also like every top line Fullback and Winger or Front rower, but has to get what they can afford and what's available...

You think BA went out and signed Hodgson on his own or was recommended by that dick Ennis?

Did BA give him the contract to sign?

Is BA the one holding up Moses signing?


BTW wasn't the rumor going around that BA and the GM were at war?

What???

Talk about obfuscation and misdirection, but that's what you always do, turn the argument upside down and move the goal posts so the subject matter gets twisted enough for you to then pounce on your victims answer to a question or statement he or she(if we have any she's in here) never really asked or said. Then pounce on the response, generally with some more selectively twisted and over the top interpreted stats or argument that only back up your newly directed argument. Or there is the classic Pou that just bears down and tries to defend the indefensible and nonsensical.

After all you are the Scatman...Ops sorry I mean Statsman.

OK, I think we are not agreeing and only going around in circles. Enough said. This is to silly to keep continuing.

He literally tried to sign Klemmer, Kapow etc etc. So he knew he was a middle short. Yet you make this into him being confident about his middles before kickoff ?
Exactly. Every coach wants to improve their team. None of them have the ‘team they want’. The market ensures that.

When he has squandered all our salary cap on Neville Nobodies we will have merkins like you and pou telling us 'with what money' again?
Neville Nobodies don’t stop you signing stars. That’s how the salary cap works ffs. They are at different ends of the cap distribution. If we missed out on Klemmer and Taupau it’s because other clubs offered more than us. Maybe Taupau was excited about moving to Brisbane and playing under Kevin Walters?

I've said it before, he should not have signed some of the riffraff he has and had enough in the kitty to get someone like Klemmer. But my criticism now is that he is signing players like Davey and wasting good money on them when he should be gearing up to clear the decks as much as he can to be able to sign QUALITY props and outside back/s.

It is a juggling act for sure, but our merkins in charge just don't seem to know how to juggle at all.


Now see you say you know how the NRL club works then you go and post this..

I need a coffee.
