Rumours and Stuff

Actually sacking a coach is definitely not easy. It actually causes major upheaval within the organisation - amongst the players, the training staff, assistant coaches and the general admin at the club. But particularly amongst the playing group. A new coach will generally need to rebuild a team and playing style - a playing style that the previous coach is most likely to have put into operation at all levels of junior competition.

It should be an absolute last resort.

Yeah just like Souths did this year.

Not at all. You missed the important flip-flopping qualifier. They are lunatics because they think that someone or something is either the greatest thing ever or the worst thing ever. No sense of balance or perspective.

You keep saying this and yet you keep getting it wrong. These over the top massive statements labelling everyone that has issues with our decades of failures and lumping all of us as extremely unbalanced and perspective-less flip-floppers is the statement that is lacking any real perspective.

You love bundling people with differing views as intellectual lesser then's. Lunatic.

Well I'd say the Watmough thing was an agreement like Surgess has, where he wouldn't stay if he was no longer up to it.

Foran was something no merkin saw coming, and it's not like he was no longer good enough for the NRL; he has signed for two different clubs since leaving us, though both sucked while he was there. He won six from nine with us (67%) yet won less than 30% with the Warriors and Dogs. Small samples but.

Jennings was signed when we thought we didn't have a salary cap, which made him low risk until we got caught. Norman was signed when he had just challenged for the Dally M. The only risk for him seemed to be off the field. On it he was starring the year he re-signed (2016).

As for Moses, who knows? He was awesome last year, garbage this year. Obviously something has gone wrong.

I don't believe that no one has pulled Pou up on the revisionist history that he has tried to pull off here?

This is the point. Merkins can see that we need better management, but they think that just means replacing the coach. The fact is there is a whole bunch of other 'management' functions that these other clubs have that we don't, and I don't think it's in the club's power to get them. Can we get well-connected board members who love the club? Can we get wealthy fans happy to divert profits from their companies into 'legit' TPAs for our players? Can we compete for the best CEOs, heads of football or coaches? IMO if we could we already would have.


Again you open up with a sweeping statement that belittles everyone that has a differing opinion then yours suggesting that we haven't worked out that issues go deeper then the coach. Then go on to suggest that we don't have or can't compete with the best people.

Well you are as usual the one full of negativity and misinformation. Of course we can compete with the best of them. We just have a terrible track record of not being able to identify who the best are. We are only now coming into a new age for Parra. It will take a little more time, but we will be a force to be reckoned with in the near future. We have always though had the potential, but were being hobbled by people like you running the joint. You know the type, spinners that talk big, but deliver nothing but the same smell of failure year after year.

As for wealthy benefactors willing to give their hard earned to the club, they will only come onboard once the club as a whole has turned the corner on and off the field.

If you are extremely positive about something and then extremely negative and then extremely positive etc etc it’s highly likely that the thing you are gibbering on about is neither as good or as shit as you think in those extreme moments.
