Ahhh... home sweet home. What's the topic of conversation? Poor bench usage? Staking his career on shit footballers like Mann, Miller, Crossland? The only hooker in his squad being made of glass, and seeing no problem with this whatsoever? Lack of mental preparation?

I'm taking lack of mid week trips to Bali to motivate them.

I haven't watched the press conference yet but did AOB say wasn't as bad as what the Sharks did to the Cowboys a few weeks ago?

To be honest I can’t see the club sacking him this season after him losing his Mum a few weeks back.

There’s also sadly a drought of decent replacements available.

I’ve tried to give AOB the benefit of the doubt this season as the boys came back from pre season looking fit and committed…it’s looking more and more likely though that we haven’t improved at all and need to try something different. There are some concerns that fall directly on AOB including going into the season with Brailey of all people as our only hooker.

Not only that but it’s been over a month since Brailey went down and he’s seemingly decided Crossland is the hill he wants to die on

That’s the weird thing. Losing Brailey with no solid replacement so early in the year, we had/have time to find a solution. Basically sacrificing the season using Crossland as the permanent solution.

That's exactly it. We've sacrificed the entire season for AOB's insistence on keeping this awful football player employed. It's mind boggling stuff.

Harsh, not his fault he has to play 9, poor management of squad with lack of decent backup under injury prone Brailey. Crosslands gives it everything on field, sure not top grade quality but effort is good, I don’t want him in our 17, maybe 14 most likely Cup but it is what it is.
