Rumours and Stuff

It may not just be our record over those games that will judge what happens with BA, but how we actually perform.
If we are getting flogged with pedestrian attack and woeful defence, then yeah maybe he will be on very thin ice.
But if we are competing well and are simply beaten by a team just playing better, then things are not so clear cut.

Keep dreaming, mate. Even if we compete well but don't come away with points then the moonhowlers will be baying for blood.

Someone being molested isn't funny. Unsure why mods dont ban that low behavior.

That's what the report button is for.

Is he going to report a tree?

Yay, ImtheMan’s back.

I love that guy!

You realise who that is?

It will come down to the number of wins and losses. If we are ‘competing’ each game but consistently losing by teams playing better then he will get the boot. If most teams are ‘playing better’ then it shows we aren’t good enough.

I did say it won't be just about amount of wins. Obviously putting wins on the board is incredibly important, and if we lose every game of our first 6 then I can see BA being punted.
Winning 3 or even 2 of our first 6 and competing very well in the other 4 might not be so bad. Playing the Roosters, Panthers and Sharks (3 of this year's top 5 teams) is a difficult task, and losing to them doesn't mean we are necessarily a bottom 4 team again. It doesn't even mean we aren't a top 8 team. Those are 3 very good teams.

If we lose to The Dogs and Raiders though....f**ken punt him!

It's never fun to lose. I get that.
Some people just take it harder than others, I guess. Six games isn't really a big indicator of whether a team will make the Finals though (look at the Tigers this year). I would wait until mid-year to make a decision on BA. I think we would get a better understanding of where the team is at by that stage.

Raiders game is in Canberra. We've won 3 times more spoons than games in that cesspool of a city.

Let’s say we lose the first 6. I for one will go medieval however who would replace him? Holbrook? The assistant from Brisbane? Are we going to take a punt on another rookie?

 

[Bolgeel]

Is it because you’re gay that you don’t like Folau?

He isn’t gay because he doesn’t like rugby

Think back. At what point did you think we wern't going to make the 8 this year? For me it was after we got flogged by Manly in round 2. It was obvious something was wrong. No team comes back from a flogging like that and deserves to be in the 8, especially Parra. Just my opinion.

If Arthur does nothing else but break that hoodoo then he deserves a 10-year extension.

Bennett yes please

 

[Avenger]

I can’t beleive I’m saying this but if we sack him and panic into taking anyone mid season it would be the wrong move.

If he is not in our plans we let him at least finish season 2019 and plan with proper due diligence for 2020.

have you forgotten this year already?

It was probably around our 6th straight loss.
Like I said, if we lose 6 straight again it probably means he's done for. But if we get a couple of good wins and compete well in others then I think that would be too early to make a decision.

 

[El Diablo]

Bennett yes please

he signed with Souths

Give him an extra 10 if we do the Cowboys at 1300smiles and the Storm in Bleak City.
