Q&A session with JD.

[spear tackle]

15 weeks takes us to the end of our season.
The same as Doyle said from the start.
However I think another 15 weeks of this rubbish will have a detrimental effect on the club and supporters and Doyle may have to step in earlier to salvage some credibility.

Yes, I'm guessing it'll be a fire sale to sell memberships next year

At least it (probably) won't be that f**king horrendous 'Loyal' campaign they ran for members around the end of the 2013-14 (one of the two) seasons.

 

[RHYTHM AND STEALTH]

None that I can see R&S now that you mention it, here's the link all the same http://www.nzherald.co.nz/league/news/article.cfm?c_id=79&objectid=11642743

exactly

just an opinion piece like all of us expessing ours in here

Hopefully it'll be "we're sorry".

Maybe we could dump "keep the faith" and replace it with "introducing some accountability"

"There's not many of our fans who'd say they don't want to go and watch them next week because that's not a true fan."

Quote made by...Jim Doyle. In the wake of the Manly loss. I really lost respect for him making that comment. I think I trailed off supporting him blindly somewhere around that moment.

 

[Blair]

What about the Roosters coach if he gets the flick soon? His plan to win games once his big guns came back hasn't worked.

What did I ever do to you? :sarcasm:

Fooled around according to an unquoted source.

 

[Rich102]

So. Anyone going?
Can we have a report please?

 

[RHYTHM AND STEALTH]

a report would be awesum

That would be awesome. Rhythm's one (think that's who it was) from Doyle's pre-season symposium was bloody brilliant, so it would be great to get another.

I bet Jim and company are absolutely filthy that they scheduled this Q&A at the time they did. After the Drags might've been a few curly ones but nothing too harsh, off we go into the night. Now, I reckon (I hope) the knives will be right out.

 

[Leber]

I'm going

 

[Rich102]

A report would be terrific Leber!

 

[RHYTHM AND STEALTH]

I'm going

Nice Oz. Unfortunately it's not the right environment for Jim to say anything of interest, and nor did he even come close to doing so. Questions were pretty average too.

 

[ozbash]

seemed a bit staged imo,, been to them previously and guidelines were laid down about what was acceptable.

dont understand them having players present.

 

[Penrose Warrior]

I do, it scares the fans into not asking questions they might otherwise. And sends out this pseudo 'we're showing the players they have to front up to the loyal fans' message. These things are a PR exercise, nothing more. No answers come out of it. I could answer every question they're asking almost word for word how Jim does.

Let's face it, no one is going to say to McFadden 'why do you have such a poor handle on your bench? What is your strategy' or 'What's wrong with Shaun Johnson' whilst Shaun is sitting 10m to their left.

 

[ozbash]

yep, pretty much imo..
