The 7 worst tactics of the last 14 years

[2 weeks]

Ricky Stuart deciding that Brett Finch was a hooker in 2006 deserves an honourable mention IMO

Methinks cdf is a cup of methylated spirits in the LU fuel tank . . . something to get us home

Guys I have been at the helm here for 10 years. Many dubious campaigners have since polluted the airwaves.

Now I have had a few years off here but overall I one of those players that can make the impact.

Like Scott Sattler during his days at Easts, he might have only made 46 yards from 9 carries, but he was the first to line up for a TV interview once the graft was over.

Anthony Griffin's genius:

Make everyone put on weight, regardless of how they do it (players on social media talk about eating rubbish just to make weight) in turn making them fat, slow turds.

Playing Hoffman at 5/8 for FIFTEEN ROUNDS. Plays in a straight jacket the entire time.

Playing Wallace at hooker and McCullough at lock. Warriors pile on 56 points.

Drops Hannant on the eve of a game against a team consisting of starting props Scott and Tamou, hooks Martin Kennedy after 19 minutes after one error never to be seen again, team proceeds to get absolutely trampled.

Brian Smith's half time whiteboard with a map of Bondi Junction should get a run

Matt Elliot picking Adrian Purtell in the backrow in a finals game was special, Purts had never played there.

Not as bad as when he played Terry Martin at 5/8 for us against the Storm in a semi final.

Deserves a thread of his own but Matt Elliot picking Kevin Kingston in the halves was sheer mad genius. So bad but so very good.

I dearly miss that bloke coaching someone else's team.

Pace yourself CDF, don't want you to burn out before round 1.

Kurt Gidley captaining NSW from the bench

Matt elliot naming waterboy matt adamson as 18th man

 

[T.S Quint]

Signing Chris Sandow.

Worst idea ever.

what the f**k?

:lol:

There was a program on 4 Corners last night in regards to people o.d/ing on party drugs.And the O.P.'s commentary reminded me of those kids defecating themselves in public.Total loss of control.

Seems the O.P. got a bad batch of whatever he had without a testing kit.

Seek medical attention A.S.A.P. you stupid Lemming.

It was bad, particularly with Michael Monaghan on the bench - although he was returning from an injury, and the touted options in the lead-up were Adam Mogg and James Evans, with Brad Drew and Jason Croker being out injured.

I think we would have been screwed no matter who played there.

Daniel Anderson's mock celebration VCR (!) to the players at halftime of the 2002 GF is right up there.

Ando's 2003/2004 off-season tactic of "let's make an an already big team even bigger by getting them to bulk up in the gym, who needs endurance?" was another howler. And let's not forget Bluey McLennan's "just go out and express yourselves boys, don't worry about things like defence or a game plan" coaching style in 2012.

Oh he was a pearla. I remember seeing footage of the boys in the shed before a game once and he had them paired off silently staring into each others eyes for 1 minute right before they ran out :crazy:

Who will ever forget Tim Sheens going into a game against Parra after we had been bulldozed in the forwards for a month straight with a front row of Danny Galea and Cory Payne. Also, his move to bring Jason Moodie out of retirement worked so well in 2004 that he did it again in 2007.
