I think alot of people in here overthink things.

Kearney has the hardest job of all the coaches in the NRL atm and i pity him. No one likes him and all hes trying to do is turn Parramatta into a consistant top 4 side. He is obviously struggling but with the large amount of disrespect in here its little wonder your all on here posting and kearney and the board are trying to fix this mess both immediately and in the close future.

Come on Gronk, you know the answer to that already, Poo Poo is nothing but a sheep just following the boards lead.

If the public vote the current board out with Poupou commend that decision because those who know best make that decision.

If this was brian smith, mathew elliot, rick stone, Tim Sheens or even geoff toovey. The media would be going crazy over his lack of success being 7 & 34.

He is a media favourite hence the lack of criticsm about his coaching.

Nobody likes him because he's the one who turned us into the rabbling mess and instead of turning us into a consistent top 4 side like he intended he's turned us into a pathetic excuse for a side that's won just 3 out of our last 24 games which makes all but two of the wooden spoon sides over the past 12 years look good.

I don't think anyone here hates Kearney, the problem is we have a board who punted a coach who has hell of a lot of experience in coaching to bring in a amateur that has no experience in coaching on a day to day basis. The only experience Kearney has is being involved with a club that went well over the salary cap, and have Wayne Bennett hold his hand during the World Cup campaign.

Only thing to save SK is being competative the 2nd half of the year - competative for whole bloody games, not the last 20 mins! ... and a good start to next year. Anything less, bye bye.

That would be the absolute reason that I'd sack him.

Only because it happened exactly the same way last year (theoretically assuming it happens again) - which just goes to show that the guy can coach, but is prioritizing his 'other job' over the off-season and until the anzac day game.

Why should we suffer through 10 rounds of crap and be eliminated from the finals chase already just because he had his head elsewhere?
To be competitive from here on would just be rubbing our noses in the pile of turd that has been laid in front of us wouldn't it?

and if we are sitting in hte same position this time next year? He stays until end of 2013?
Pou doesn't know if he's Arthur or Martha most of the time. One day he's 100% behind whatever the Board says, the next he's taking bets each way.

Agree totally.

If we end up 0 from 5 I'd be pretty convinced Kearney isn't the right man for our club. Even 2 from 5 would be a concern.
How's 1 from 10 grab you Pou ?

Answer the question numb nuts ! If they sack him today you're cool with that or if they let him run out his contract you're Ok with that too ?

It's not like I've got any control over it either way, is it?

If the public vote the current board out with Poupou commend that decision because those who know best make that decision.

That's the main problem with democracy - those who make the big decisions (voters) generally don't know best.

But the board were voted in. That's the reality. And if they care more about being re-elected than anything else they will certainly punt Kearney soon if we don't start winning games.

That's just how it goes. I couldn't be bothered becoming a voting member again because club politics is just a sad thing to be interested in.

This is the point you f**ken nitwits don't get - IT IS NOT OUR CALL TO MAKE.

We're not privy to what goes on behind the scenes so it's stupid to think we can judge. We can only see the players - whether they're doing their job or not - we can't see coaches at work well enough to judge them.

I've changed my mind about how good our players are. The older ones have declined massively - they're no longer performing every week.

The team unity evident last year is also gone, and to find an explanation for that you either have to look at the new blokes in the club, or have a look at who is on his way out.

Honestly, we are going so bad that I reckon if Kearney was the problem he would be gone already.

With all the people supporting Kearney, from board to sponsor to media heads, he can't be the problem.

Unfortunately we wanted the leaks stopped and now they have. Although if there were big issues inside the squad you'd think more leaks would have come out about that.

So, it`s probably not the coach - but it`s also probably not the players.
Make up your mind, son.

No you're right, they're a bunch of evil stupid rich guys who are desperate not to lose face.

Just like the villains in Hollywood.



Why do you persist in implying that people think like that? It`s wearing a bit thin. Most people who criticise the coach or the board have done so after a fair period of critical analysis, you know.

And many haven't, so that's probably why.

Yeah, that'd be it for sure.... support is nothing to do with self-interest or saving face.

If you critically analyse 1 from 10 and 7 from 34 without any emotion (or saving face), then imo there's not too many other conclusions one can reach other than to call on the Board to get in a new coach asap.

The reason there keeping him there is to save face. They punt him now they go into next election ready to be wiped after the monster stuff up in regards to our previous coach & replacing him with there current supercoach who could have the worst coaching record in the history of the eels mr kearny at the time of elections.

They are praying to every god that he works out otherwise there time in power will be looked at as embarassing.

They have done some great things in regards to the leagues club but in the end most care about a succesful football club. Which they have failed to deliver after promising thats what is so important

Yep I thought exactly the same when I read it Strider. But I couldn't be bothered replying. Poupou just likes arguing, and is starting to say silly stuff just for the sake of an argument.
