I suppose so. How have you liked Matt Elliot this year? I don't watch many Panthers games, if any actually, and would be interested on your take onn the guy. If it was me I would have prefered Lang to stay.
Have to say he's done nothing to impress me so far, but he has managed to do a lot to annoy the crap out of me. You'll be sorry you asked :lol:
The young players that he has brought up were not great discoveries on his part, they were players that would have pushed for selection on talent anyway, no matter who the coach would have been, so he gets no credit for them.
The fact that he rested Priddis for 5 weeks and then played him in Premier League for 3 weeks annoyed the sh*t out of me. If Priddis was carrying such a bad injury for so long, then Elliott should have insisted that he rest earlier in the season and he would not have needed anywhere near as many weeks off. As for the stint in Premier League, that was not necessary. After 5 weeks off, Priddis would have come back to first grade and worked his damn arse off (as he did in PL), and we would have had a shot at winning a game 3 weeks earlier. Was it a surprise that we won against souths in his first game back? No.
The fact that he did not drop Tony Puletua earlier in the season to freshen up his form was a bad decision. He waited until now to drop him. Too little too late. He could have helped us through the season if he had got his wake up call earlier in the season.
He has swapped the line up around ridiculously from week to week like a desperate man. Some of his choices, and the ridiculous positions he has played them in, has been a joke.
His strategies throughout the games, and his use of players off the bench have been at times stupid and at others incomprehensible.
Oh.......and he also thinks the sun shines out of Matt Adamson's arse when most fans hate his guts which to me proves he's one lousy judge of character. Especially considering Adamson spends most of the warm up time, and the game time yelling at the players like a lunatic, rather than just passing on coaches instructions. The man is poison to our club.
So all in all.......I can't stand the man, and the only chance he will ever have of impressing me will be if we ever win the premiership again while he's coach.
I'll bet I was right. I'll bet you're now really sorry you asked
..:lol:
It felt bloody good to vent though..........thanks.
