Kaufusi isn't off contract ffs

We need a thread. But he could be extended.

 

[Avenger]

Experts generally tipping us to finish sixth. Reasonable, imo. If we finish higher we overachieved. If we beat better teams in the finals we overachieved. If we do neither of these things we don't need a scapegoat. We need to incrementally improve, which is best measured by a rolling three year win rate:

2014-16: 47% (34/72)
2015-17: 51% (38/74)
2016-18: 47% (35/74)
2017-19: 49% (37/76)
2018-20: 50% (36/72)

We're getting there, but the only thing that ever made me doubt Arthur's was 2018. If something like that happens this year I'll be off him. If we continue to improve I'll assume no other coach would do better with our resources.

Great post Pou.

Great post Pou.

I expect he's now under pressure to maintain the quality. I will be watching closely?

That's not a question?

You just randomly vomit a bunch of shit and hope that some of it eventually sticks.

Not like me. I have my finger on the pulse...or up my arse....I’m not sure. Anyway, the point is that my finger is somewhere!

Your pulse is up your clacker.

Don’t start snappy, or I’ll take you to Hartleys where you’ll have 3 square metres within which to wang your wizzer.

Free lunches and dinners with lots of squinty photographers. I can handle that.

I particularly like your prediction that BA will stay. Nice to know what you really think about him.

The Junior who he lowballed and let walk out the door only to buy him back a few years later on a shitload more coin that junior??? And RCG was a good get but it all depends when the Panthers stop tipping in. But come on Brussy we all know how Baldie loves the bargain bin.

driving into Coffs Harbour yesterday from the north we passed a turn off called Bald Knob Rd

it reminded me of some one, and it wasn't Aston Agar

Bit rough Twiz, we all know Bea is bald and half a coach but i don't think he's a Knob. Seems a top bloke in fact.

Like Gunco, Fergo, Waqa (maybe), Moses and Matto? I think you are confusing bargain with value, brus. Would you prefer DCE with players like Levi and Captain Ranga or Taumolololololo with whoever their halves are? Or Ponga with Mythchell Piss?
You honestly reckon we lowballed Paulo enough to make him move to Canbra?!?No amount of money would get anyone packing to SexPestLand
