Lol if any merkin thinks BA is up to fixing this they are f**king deluded.
If anyone is simple enough to think that everything rests entirely with they coach then they are equally deluded.

Moving BA on won't fix shit unless we address a whole heap of other stuff as well.

Yes like the team he assembled and our attacking and defensive structures .

The coach/coaching staff are ultimately responsible for overestimating the quality of the forwards and underestimating the influence of Radradra, which is the reason why we were never going to be contenders, but ultimately injuries are probably the reason we're running last and out of Top 8 contention, which isn't necessarily the fault of the coaching staff.

What's the biggest issue, the fact that we were never Premiership contenders due to recruitment/retention decisions or the fact that we're no longer Top 8 contenders ultimately because of injuries???

Sorry mate, you can’t blame the squad if the coach has selected that team.
The coach has a role to play but so do our tight arse administrators, our underperforming players and injuries. You would love to make the coach responsible for everything but thats just dumb. He shouldn't be the only person the fingers are pointed at.

...Should not be a 2-11 side, be tryless in 8 (probably 9) halves of football in 13 games of football and have the worst defence in the comp.
Agreed. But to suggest that it is ENTIRELY the coaches fault is so f**ken dumb that it makes me actually want to find some of you and force feed you moldy dog shit from my back lawn.

It’s obvious whatever he’s doing isn’t working. Easier to move a coach then move 10 plus players like Stuart did. Every coach has an expiry date, why is that hard to fathom?

I don’t think anyone is saying BA is solely to blame. But he is ultimately responsible for the roster, game plan, coaching staff and attitude. He has failed in all of these things, bar possibly attitude. He needs to bare a lot of responsibility for the shit show that is season 2018. I think there is enough failure there to warrant exploring other options for 2019.

Serious question for anyone that cares to answer it...

Before a ball had been kicked this year, what win/loss ratio would be your catalyst to start looking elsewhere?

It isn't. I have already been on record suggesting I think he will be moved on. I just dont think it will result in any major changes unless we change a whole heap of other things.
