Rumours and Stuff

I know things are tough and I get pissed off too at this basket case of a club but after a few cans on the couch let me say this.

This club drives me mad, but there is a certain romance in our uniquivical passion. Hater or hugger who cares.

How good is footy, how good is the hope of a better season. Life is good friends! I look forward to the offseason screaming.

Much love,
Stevie
It's a long off-season mate. The hardest off-season, ever.

What you get is a 50/50 chance of flipping either heads or tails each time you flip it. If you do the same for another 10 times you get a 50/50 chance of flipping either heads or tails each time you flip it.
So every year we will win 11 games, plus or minus 5 games. That's been the case since 2014. In the five years before that we were more like 8 +/- 4 wins per regular season.

I'm sure we would like to change it to a more Cronulla-esque 12 wins plus/minus 5 (under Flanagan) but I suspect that involves buying a bunch of old, experienced merkins and hoping they don't get injured.

Heads or tails..........your call.

Shouldnt our new HOFM have input into who the coaches will be or does he have to start next year with a 5 year plan to get the coaching team he wants?

I'd assume he/she would have a free reign by this time next year. After that, most of the guns will be re-positioned away from the coach and aimed directly at the HOFM. Five year plan............lol. In the current climate that is the Eels, that person would be lucky to see out three.

You’d like to think so, so far before the review is even finished we have the Head coach safe, attacking coach extended and the Head fitness AFL merkin safe.

Massive changes coming up by the looks, totally massive.

And made a decision to hire an HOFM but to make all his decisions for him prior to his appointment even though the review has apparently recognised that what we have done to this point hasnt been successful given we didnt have an HOFM.
Anyone else confused?

I love the smell of a anti-club sarcasm fest in the morning !
