What chief is trying to say is we have the foundations to be a powerhouse, both on and off the field. And he’s right. What we need thou, is consistent success over a number of years and watch the corporates line up. What we’ve dished up over the past decade, is a bloody disgrace. We’ve been the laughing stock of the league for far too long now. We’ve cleaned up our act off the field to a degree, all we need now is 3 top 8 finishes over the next few years. .
You’re talking as if our results on the field are the cause rather than just another effect. As if they can be fixed just by finding the right scapegoat.

And you dopes call me the looser?!?

No, but the results on field will help in other aspects.

And FTR I didn’t call you anything. Not a loser nor a looser

The "foundations" are smoke and mirrors ... and you've just stated that they dont matter cos success is what gets people on board ... totally agree

Well technically i typed it

Sorry, but it is reality.

Name me all the coorporates based at parra who should be falling over themselves to throw big money to fund our players real estate investments

Realism has been a dirty word on here for at least a decade

Heard TK say on the Big Sports Breakfast this morning he has heard from a very reliable source BA has 8 rounds this year. He said he has also been told it could be as little as 6 rounds if it’s a shocking start.
Only mention it as I’ve heard it said on here before.

I think it's obvious he's a chance of not seeing out the year, depending on our start. Plus a good chance of getting an extension if we fire early.

The big question is what do we do with our 2020 coaching position if we've won about half our games by mid-season. It's very exciting.

Parramatta have many advantages also.
*one of the best and long history of success in it's vast jnr base.
* Rich league's club backing
*Central Sydney location and corporate advantages through its large city.
* best stadium in Sydney.
* huge fan base

Our tpa's will climb as we ditch the bad boy culture.

Missing the 8 is definitely like winning the spoon in my opinion.
The problem with people like pau pau is, they've become accustomed to losing, and have become happy losers.
We should never accept anything less than top 6.
So if we don’t finish in the top 6, how do we go about not accepting it?

We are all on the edge of our seats waiting for every comment by Piggy Riddell.
I was stunned to read that he gets paid big money to ace college entry tests for the dopey, unmotivated offspring of rich celebs: https://www.washingtonpost.com/nati...eds-say/?noredirect=on&utm_term=.2af3d659f265
At 11:52 a.m., the girl finished the ACT and left the test center to meet her father. The two drove away, leaving her proctor, whom federal authorities identified Tuesday as Mark Riddell, a college-entrance exam counselor who had flown to California from Tampa allegedly to doctor her answers.

I kinda agree, if true. It could be an indication of the lack of football knowledge in our decision makers, and the effects of being hamstrung by an administrator. A 'normal' club could still take the same approach but in general I think they'd be more decisive, for good or ill.

Surely giving a coach under pressure a third of a season to prove himself is a ffair option .... do you think 8 games is too few?
