He’s done well and I don’t ever think I called him a failure - hell, just like Val, he’s part of 2016 and that was my semi retirement from all this crap.
Ultimately, he is just a dead set knob.

Interesting that as rothfield supports the sharks about as much as yourself.

How so?

Because I didn't fall for the rookie coach fairy dust stories?

Morris's "failures" were ridiculously overblown and the hope of a rookie coach blatantly oversold. All I did was call out the bullshit.

Now that Fitz is in place I'm happy to give him a go and the time he needs to do things his way.

I show the players and the coach way more patience than most in here.

So what were the claims at the time? That we would replaced a haried coach with a bald coach? What were the selling points exactly?
You seem conflicted.

You’re apparently a Sharks supporter but you thrive in here when the Sharks lose.

You apparently didn’t fall for the rookie coach fairy dust stories. But you’re prepared to give him time. But you don’t know what his coaching qualities are?

You’re not one of those gender fluid types are you?

I don’t see what the problem is. Morris had no contract, his time was up and chose to leave early when he wasn’t retained. Wasn’t sacked at all.

I'm agenda neutral.

I want to see Fitz go well because i want to see Cronulla go well. I would have stuck with JM but I don't actually have anything against Fitz. Seems like a decent Bloke. I Just didn't see the need for the over-hype of Fitz and the under appreciation of Morris.

I'd like to see people think a bit more deeply rather than getting carried away with the rugby league flavour of the month

That loss to Manly in the semis which we shoulda coulda won. Can’t lump it all on the coach, but lack of anything in that game spoke plenty and actually being even more so. Team’s body language was one of “whatever”
That was enough for me.

As frustrating as it is, I can't hold single performances against a coach. There are so many influences on a team's performance, many behind the scenes we'll never even know about. Even the coach wouldn't be privy to some of the personal situations of the players which could result in a one-off shocker of a performance. Everyone has been there at some point.

I guess if we are to be fair, going by that criteria, we need to replace Fitzy now too. We had two below standard performances in finals last year. Then we had the 50+ against Melbourne. In the interest of consistency we have to label him as a rookie coach with no idea.
