We went into the season with high hopes, now we sit 11th with teams who you would never think would be in front of us Warriors Broncos, we are useless, finals are gone.

Morris has sent us to a record not seen here since the 2014 disaster, well done Morris, if you take 2014 its 2011, how long can we keep Morris, he needs to be told finals or go

This is much more a player issue than coaching issue. Morris held firm when there were lots of injuries. The kids lifted and kept the season going well.

Big names come back their attitude has been shit. That's on them. They are experienced enough to show the requisite professionalism.

Blaming the coach is weak.

No the coach should be able to get the experienced guys to perform, the Rabbits had experienced heads out, there coach has been able to get those guys performing on return, our coach does not know how to get the old heads to work, he needs to lay the law done, do it his way or go

Right. So internationals can't be professional enough to perform.

How did Morris galvanise the team when they were down on troops?

When we were down who lifted the young guys, he seems to be able to get them to perform but has no idea how to bang the old heads together, which actually should be easier

If your sales team ain’t performing, you cut heads, kick arse & move kaaarnts on.

The blame from the directors points firmly at the manager, not the sales team.

With the 2019 season now gone, time to be a manager Bomber.

You won’t like it. It ain’t fun. It’s just necessary.

Well said Weapon.

Counteracting another 1 of Stake’s wild rants, I like it!

Go Stake - keep the threads coming - gold contribution to my Friday night
For what it’s worth, we have been up for so long the down was coming.
Rather go out in flames than limp along - broom coming

This season has shown that the old heads signed by flanno have been around a year too long.

Get rid of the lot. Fifita, gal, prior, bakuya.
2020, the year of the kids

Yep we were going well with them in the team!

Funnily enough, when the commentators said here come the old heads Fifita & Woods back on to save the day, or words to that effect, we lost the plot.

I’m a fan of woods but he was terrible in that last short stint. Basically jogging behind the play & jogging it up when we had it. We needed gutsy straight runs & quick play the balls, he (& Fifita) dogged their duty!

Please.

Morris inherited a team more focussed on spoiling than playing footy.

The old heads need to go.

He didn’t sign anyone in the squad.

All were signed and endorsed by flanno as the way going forward.

Great plan piano teeth

The young players proved they wanted to play for Morris because he’s nurtured them.

The old guys have not supported him as their allegiance is to Flanno & they probably hold that against Morris, even if they’d totally deny it.

The more I think about it, Morris was on a hiding to nothing!

He looked rattled in the press conference. It's a tough gig but he going to have to make some big calls. Too many big names just not aiming up.

How many penalties has Fifita cost us over the years, that have affected results?
Prior has gotten worse,Gal one year too many. Bakuya where the hell is he? New blood needed.
On paper we should be at least 6th.

The coach is not to blame for brain explosions, knock ons ,high shots.
As soon as Fifita got the 10 minutes and the penalty to the Wazzas ,I just knew it was fold up the tent time.
