Well go on, explain why Ciraldo would be such a great coach. What’s his record in week two of the finals?
Where did I say Ciraldo should be our coach?
Please quote me.

Were they also lucky? They won three finals games by a combined eight points.
The same as BA's... 0% win rateWhat’s his record in week two of the finals?
I agree. We have to atleast reach the game before grand final. If we bow out in week 2 or prior once again it's just another fail.
On paper we have the 3rd best squad in the competition.
Manlys side is solid but has a lot of holes. The Rooster don't have as good a spine or forwards.
Who else is there? Panthers and Storm have better squads. If we lost to them a week out from the grand final in a close match. A coin toss then I'd keep him. If we don't make it that far or get belted a week before the grand final I see no point on continuing into year 10 with BA.
Ciraldo might be far worse. It is a gamble. One id be happy to take.
Let's just see how this season ends up first.
If we beat either of them week one we'll be getting a week off.What if we get Storms / Penrith week one and two, beat one, lose to the other, season over?
They are vulnerable to the bomb. It would be poor coaching not to use it.Yes. It was all set up.
Let's face reality. We had 80mins to score a try and only one we did was off a bomb. I dont even think we had them stretched once in that game.
Well I don’t see you pissing your knickers when people suggest he should be. Don’t chase me around the forum. I’m not the only one with an opinion.Where did I say Ciraldo should be our coach?

Exactly. With a worse record in week one and during the regular season. Unless we get a top line coach we are likely to go backwards after dumping Arthur.The same as BA's... 0% win rate

Maybe we could merge.So we need to sign Nick Politis? ffs Owe’niel get it done!!!
Yes but they'll both almost certainly be top 4. And if by some turn of events one of them isn't, then beating that team and then losing to the other team that lost the first week, after missing the top 4 ourselves, won't be much of an achievement.Depends where each team finish.
I agree for the most part. The results of one or two games shouldn't be overly emphasized as they're obviously a lot of factors going into those and other results. What I'm not sure I agree with is that you need a clearly better coaching option.I'm not sure that it makes a lot sense to make universal statements re what we should do. e.g. if we were unlucky enough to lose 3 of the first choice spine players late in the season and made it to the prelim final, it would be pretty odd (and counterproductive) to fire the coach (unless you have a really clear better option available and keen). You'd be be making a rod for the next coach's back (cue the bones jokes). As ever....it depends.

I think the whole coaching prowess thing is much more fuzzy than people think. There's very little real objective markers to go on. The next rung down from NRL coach is assistant NRL coach or ESL coach, and they fail more often than not. And the more often a coach fails to deliver the more risk we should take.Well, you at least need an option that has a lot of upside.
Honestly Suity, I don’t remember any of your opinions on any given topic. I just know you’re part of the mob here. You’re the kind of person who would say Ciraldo is better than Arthur’s. There’s about half a dozen merkins here who put obvious thought into their opinions and understand there’s no simple answers. Then there’s a critical mass of posters who just put shit on them. I see you doing plenty of putting shit on merkins.And, answer my question.

Seems like a measured opinion.I'm not sure that it makes a lot sense to make universal statements re what we should do. e.g. if we were unlucky enough to lose 3 of the first choice spine players late in the season and made it to the prelim final, it would be pretty odd (and counterproductive) to fire the coach (unless you have a really clear better option available and keen).
