Any talk or suggestion of BA getting the punt is madness, it’s an annual event these days.

does anyone else think some journos spend the entire offseason writing up a "parra crisis" piece and keep it saved on their computer locked and loaded just waiting to be used?

The media would love nothing better than BA being under pressure, even if they have to make it happen themselves. Imagine the 'Hayne Coachkiller' headlines. They are all looking for someone to target now that Penrith have won a couple and Hook is off the Hook.

No, we would have to sacrifice quality in other areas and end up a mediocre side like the Bulldogs.

They won 16 games last year FFS!

Stop quoting last year FFS. It's passed and gone and we ended up holding aloft fresh air again. Most people are talking about THIS YEAR as we think its relevant.
As the say in the super adds, past history is not reflective of the current years performance! Well actually it probably is, we could actually resume normal service by missing the 8.

On Ch9 Monday night the host asked the Qn if Hayne had anything to do with our two loses. Gus Gould said

So last year we were good but this year after two games you've decided we won't even make the finals?

But would we have had 40% possession with bigger forwards able to assert some dominance? We were behind 24-0 after 24 minutes. We couldn't even defend for 24 mins FFS!!!!!
In the first two rounds last year we had nearly 60% possession both times. Was that because of our huge forwards? Or Semi Radradra?

The Tigers have scored a try per match and you think their strength is their spine?

Mate look at the quality of their opposition. It's not the quality alone. It's quality and application. Their application has been outstanding.

But not surprised at all really considering they have in my estimate one of the top 3 coaches in the league and rising. The man is the footy whisperer.

Agreed, and more to the point, the application of their opponents has not been outstanding, despite their superior class. It is round two. There are always upsets this time of year.

Any coach who was unemployed for over a year and then ended up at the Tigers was not in demand.
