Have to protect the princesses. Can't have their precious egos taking any heat after that loss, someone has to take the bullets lest they actually be held accountable for their efforts on the field.

This group made the Grand Final in 2011 after all, it isn't their fault.

There was something not quite right with the team's attitude yesterday. Could it be that they didn't try? Because they'd heard rumours that the coach was one bad result away from getting dumped?

If so, I tell you what, after nearly twenty years of following this team, I'd be looking for another one.

:lol: Yeah we have a star-studded line up of internationals and origin players. They're the cream of the crop and upcoming best halfback, fullback and centre of the nrl. Those big forwards and outstanding offloaders. Constantly ruined by coach after coach. Don't worry this lack of form is just a 2.5 season-long glitch. They're actually amazing players. We just need new coaches. More and more new coaches.

I heard Leuluai approached Elliot a couple of weeks ago saying the game plans were to complex and things just need to be simplified.

Same thing happened at Penrith for Elliott as well, but wonder why Mannering didn't approach him or the entire leadership group

What leadership group? This team has fewer leaders than a flock of headless chickens. That has been the biggest problem since Price retired, no leaders among the players. Truly an awful group of humans.

Wellington Dolphins? Canterbury Rams?...Please, give us another homegrown option.

It's not all about winning, but a sole minor-premiership in nearly 20 years of first grade is a story of, well, under-achievement, if not all out failure.

When this team came into what was then the NSWRL comp there was so much excitement, so much expectation. But it's come to nothing really.

If this is true about Elliott and it appears it is then Scurrah must walk if he is true to his word, we had a chance for Bellamy but they were not prepared to wait a year and then said Elliott was their first choice, which we all know was bullshit. Scurrah said if Elliott was gone then so was he, or words to that effect.

Scurrah the idiot will probably get Robbie Deans.

We need a Kevin Campion type coaching these blokes

Then it'll get too tough on them and they'll make sure he's thrown under the bus also.

They need a coach, whoever it is, that management says right we have faith in you, we have your back.
