Kearney

[Eels Dude]

I can't disagree with that Poupou, and I don't think he'll get the sack this week if we lose either. But every loss adds fuel to the fire. There's a lot of pressure on SK, the board, the players, well the entire club at the moment and the pressure is only going to get worse with every loss. If we can't win away we're pretty much guarenteed the spoon because we've already played half our home games in the opening 9 rounds.

Yeah we had the perfect opportunity to get off to a good start with all those home games early. What a waste now.

I'm not defending JT in any way but what has SK achieved as an NRL coach that isn't worthy of a LOL?

He's still standing.

f**k the haters.

 

[Parra]

He's still standing.

When that is the only positive he is in real trouble. It is.

f**k the haters.

For somebody who says they support the club & not the coach sure take it personnel when he is being criticised. It's not the club we are frustrated with its the coach. So in reality what is ur agenda. You say us haters have one but why so much man love for a coach that has shown nothing

 

[hindy111]

I disagree.If canberra give us a belting lets say they beat us by 30 points.Id say Kearney will be sacked.If we win or atleast loose by less than 10 id say he is safe for another week.
The whole things has become quite comical realy : )

[Gronk]

[munge]

sorry i meant daniel anderson.

Mate, stating the bleeding obvious - no matter how accurate you may be - will get you nothing but criticism around here.

Stick solid, Kearney has a plan...:roll:

I really am starting to feel sorry for all those who bought into (& are still buying into) the propaganda that is Stephen Kearney.

Still, I would LOVE to be wrong - and will gladly front up to be lampooned if it happens. Go the Eels!

WOE

 

[spiderdan]

given kearney has a plan (regardless of whether or not it looks like it's working right now or not) i can't see the board making any decision about his future until post season, which is fair enough. it's just unfortunate we need to sit through another crap season for now.

I could very well be wrong on this front - but in his 2006 half season, JT has 3 more wins than SK has in one and a half seasons.

Maybe that was the new KPI for SK this year? "By the end of the season, you need to have more career wins than JT got when he took over in 2006, or you're gone"

They should learn from their mistakes and act now. If they act end of season all they're doing is shoving a new coach in the position at the last minute, without a say in the roster... again.

Kearney had a say in the roster mid 2010. Remember Ozzie trying to sign players that Ando had no idea about. Kearney was calling the shots.

 

[The EELiminator]

are we about to make the same mistake twice? are the board out having coffee with prospective coaches behind kearney's back the same as they did to ando

But despite those two years spent getting the squad that he wants, Kearney still hasn't showed he can get the results he wants... why do we need to wait five full years before the guy steps up with what he has and shows that he can coach an NRL squad?

I hope so! And imo it wouldn't be a mistake this time... because this time the coach has an appalling record and needs to be replaced (or "assisted") pronto.
