When do we call time?

[Noise]

But ok, if you wanna do that ... then what leaders should be bought for next year.

Graham is at the dragons already, sutton is not off contract ..... issac luke is it?

Sutton is off contract

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

I judge him based on the outcome of each round.

I break it down into halves. And that means BA is on a massive upward swing.

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

Ive given you one...John Sutton. I also would have seriously considered signing Klemmer when the dogs were in the shit.

I would have had a go at Jackson. He's a proper leader. And probably the one player they didn't want to lose.

 

[Gary Gutful]

The problem is BA didn't look forward. He has created a huge f**king mess. A coach needs to have foresight. He gets paid a lot of money to do so.

Isaac Luke needed/needs to be the number 1 priority. Unfortunately BA doesn't like a dominant hooker. This is a major problem with our attack. The markers/defence just hammer our halves. If we had a 9 with experience that could run, pass and kick it then it would create a lot more time and space for our hookers. Api Korisau next choice

I'd keep both Moses and Norman in the halves till the end of their contract. Norman is not a fullback and Salmon not a 5/8.

I would not play guys out of position.

You should both not give up your day jobs.

Assuming your ideas for 2019 came to fruition I still don't hold any great hopes. We'll probably still miss the 8.

Why do you think klemmer never left the dogs?

You said Sutton isnot available til after next year didnt you?

No. He is off contract this year, or at least he was if the Bunnies have already re-signed him.

And why is that? It's because BA has assembled a shit squad.

However I reckon a new coach (that is not stale with the players), a quality 9 and a 6 and 7 that both want to play for the coach will see us improve.

That’s certainly a possibility. But we’re stuck with having to rebuild AGAIN after the shit show that is 2018.

I think a change of coaching staff, some decent leadership out on the field alongside Brown and some key signings in positions we’re lacking (I dont mind the Paulo and Fergo signings by the way) and we’re a much better chance than we are as it currently stands.

The coin. I’m not saying leadership comes cheap, it doesn’t. But we have a dire need for it so needs to be prioritised.

Still looking to the past.

I really wish it was that easy.

You said we still wouldn't make the 8. If it's not due to the shit squad then why?

 

[IFR33K]

Which leaders should we have signed this year?

Please, MEely I am relying on you to come up with someone better than Isaac F**king Luke. I know you can do it.

Moylan or jimmy Maloney??? Idk just throwing a couple names out there

 

[hindy111]

The cowboys were almost as bad as us all season. I don't see anyone calling for Green's head. As bad as this season has been I would love to see us honour a contract, BA deserves that. Sometimes, one needs to take a step backwards to see the whole picture.

The cowboys have been worse then us this season imo but Green won a GF and had an injury hit Cowboys side make a grand final.
BA hasnt won a finals game yet. And in a few big games in his career come up with duck eggs.
2014 - two chances to make top 8 against shit teams. Flogged
2017 - cowboys x outplayed, storm performed but beaten
2018 - Avoid spoon. Flogged.

A game to stay in top 4 last season against knights always stick with me. Flogged. Good teams in top 4 play terrible and still win those games .
It is a worry

 

[strider]

Maloney would have been good

But the thing is after last season people thought norman and moses were in line for SOO

 

[Gary Gutful]

We are coming last. Clearly our players are not going great.

This is about you thinking that there is a silver bullet going forward. You are critical of decisions this year but then when you've been asked to come up with alternatives I think what you've suggested has been pretty poor.

Including most of the people that are now critical of BA.

There is no silver bullet. BA has dug us into a huge hole. But there are things that will improve us. A new coach a start.

You don't want a quality experienced 9 and you like seeing players (eg Norman, Salmon) out of position? I'm happy to agree to disagree there.

 

[strider]

So which coach?
