But isn't Madge the one that signed the current players?
Players are signed in consultation with a few others Richo coach etc
If the coach is told there is no money or cap or this is all we have whats he to do?
Im not saying he has no blame but sometimes his hands are tied which in this case means cap mismanagement
Resigning AR for 4 years when he has played like shit since 14 is f**ked
We be better off signing that reserve grade rooster that tore us apart for a third of the price
We should have identified players that stagnated and turfed them
A team needs to sign at least 4 first graders a year to weed out complacency
Madge should be given a managers job or junior development job or sacked he shouldnt of been signed for another 2 years

I remember reading after the 2014 season Madge was handed complete control, but as you say now we are retaining some players that should be let go and releasing players we need to keep, many supporters can see it but nothing seems to have changed.

It's time for change at Sths in the coaching dept!
Madge has stayed too long & things have gone stale.
He needs a fresh start for his own good & it will be best for Sths to see a fresh new face in charge.
I would opt for someone from another club;an up & comer like Dean PAY--maybe!!

Seibold may be a good option but he has been Madge's off-sider which concerns me a little!!
Madge's style would probably be perfect for the TITANS at this stage.

dean pay is a gun coach in my estimations a no nonsense coach that could help souths immeasurably ....Shadow...i hope he could bring mark hughes with him as our recruitment officer once again...

I think Seibold takes the job if Madge goes. In saying that Souths should be fair and let Madge have a go at the Titans job.

Totally agree.
This whole thing with Sths is slowly killing everyone & everything--the team,the players--& the coach!!

The first problem I would be solving is the coach, as he,supposedly,is responsible for how the team performs over the season.

We have been going badly for too long now so it's time to give Madge the flick!!

Best thing for Madge too--let him take his dour approach to the Titans & improve their lot--he will too;for a while!!

Fully agree shadow we dont even replace the ones leaving it dosent make sense if they are looking for u20s to grow up then that is too long term and more thrashings and a spoon or 2 on the way we need to BUY players swopping farrah for JG or a morris is good why not?
Throwing promising juniors into the deep end and screwing them up dosent help they think if GI was there last night he would have stopped the route? They are dreaming


Handyman2190 at least you live in the real world of rugby league the dont knowers on here are completely laughable i just giggle in amazement when they say bring back mcinnes and madge is being taken over by seibold it just wont happen madge is going nowhere madge will be with souths for 2 years i predict and he will be our coach next year....as you know we have my dud list that needs culling if we persist with these duds then just expect to miss out on the top 8 again...Shadow...

Handyman2190... maloney / cronk would be better but that wont happen i think adam is a liability if we got cronk its a step up from adam .....adam is injury proned after 2014 . I like maloney even if cody and maloney are both 5/8""s im sure one of them can slot into reyno position....we cant keep persisting with adam it has not worked for 3 years time for change i like adam but he aint cutting the mustard....cody has the same stats as keary this year and we are in a losing team and easts are on 2nd spot....souths dont need farah....johnston is a winger we need to buy a storm winger not use talakai/jennings/burns these 3 are not 1st graders . Why cant souths see this??? clark tyrrell and turner please go away.....why we signed rochow and now he is at the storm.....why sign britt remember nathan brown?? why keep clark/turner/tyrrell over brown makes no sense right?now we got greinke/gosiewski why why why this makes no sense either right .! We just have far too many nsw cup players playing 1st grade maybe we should off load cherro too he aint no nathan brown is he??no he aint anyway HANDY souths are insane in the proper players recruitment department all we bought so far is dane gagai yes its a great signing but britt is a wrong signing we need to cull the dud 16 and send farah/reyno packing and buy at least 6 real 1st grade players or sink in 2018 ......i know im right mate we dont need mcinnes and madge does not have the cattle no more like bellamy and bennett have . I AM LIVERED MATE.....DO I MAKE SENSE HERE HANDY?? GEE ITS A SHAMBLES WE GOT DONE BY 58 POINTS LAST ROUND LIKE I SAID WE HAVE A SHIIIT TEAM ... YES IM FIRED UP AND RIGHTFULLY SO WOULDNT YOU AGREE HANDY???...Shadow...

Shadow I think our recruitment is struggling because Madge is extremely picky about players. We were a good chance of getting James Roberts but Madge said no.

I KNOW BELLAMY AND BENNETT WOULD NOT ALLOW THIS TO HAPPEN AT EITHER OF THEIR CLUBS .

Players i feel dont want to come to us maybe its madges fault but we are not aggressive in buying if we have to pay overs to get the right players this secrecy is stiffling and yes shadow there are too many duds in our team. I shudder to think what will happen on friday especially with tyrell at prop as its his last game. Its bloody depressing the cap has gone up 2mill were is the money?

Well we would've upgraded Crichton and Farah is a waste of money.....

Gagai is on 650k.

Cody wants an upgrade.
