Tyrone May played 80 minutes at fullback for Catalans in a 24-18 win over the previously unbeaten Warrington, a score that flattered the losers in a quite good quality game, both of which will make the finals. Easily his best game for them, after being lucky to get away with letting a bomb bounce early on. Good reading of the play at the back and chimed into the backline all game, very busy. Ran into a yawning gap that would have been a try even for Dylan Edwards but far too slow and was rounded up. Mitchell Pearce still at 6 and got his first try for the club off a Drinkwater kick.

Arthur is the worst coach
Ricky not far behind

He is a mid range coach. Good at getting players into the top grade that is probably his limit.

Sloan, Amone, Sullivan etc are going to be good but don't need to waste years behind other hacks.
Hahah did Brad sleep with your mum or something ?

Arthur is a top 3 coach behind Bellamy and Bennett

robson is the most overrated coach in the game even Maguire could get the roosters roster into the finals

Has Arthur coached a premiership winning side yet?

If I were to make comparisons, I'd put him alongside Mary McGregor. Both bald as a badger, both able to motivate players early in the campaign, but not when the whips are cracking. Mary never got the spoon though.

Mary had limited say over the roster.
Arthur has been in charge for 10 years and they have nothing.

Atleast Mary developed a few local juniors

When did Robson start coaching?

Arthur is mid pack at best.

For someone who has played 170 games, he still has so many rookie mistakes in him.

He still pops an offload coming off his line if he starts to get driven backward. He still leaves his wing wide open defending close to the line.

Even the Try he scored tonight, he had the ball in the hand closest to the defenders, which increases the risk of it being knocked out. Should have switched to the left.

As crushing as it was from a sentimental point of view to release him last year, it was 1000% the right call at the right time.

Cobbo really put a move on him with that early break Saucey was really spinning. I didn’t think Josh was to bad tho he just doesn’t really have it in him to be that tackle busting metre eating winger he was a few years ago consistently. Was set to play reserve grade till taffe got hurt so his days as a first up winger may be over.
