Who replaces Cappy?

I just cant stomach Cappy being the coach again based on his weekly backline reshuffling positions and how some players are going backwards under him.

- Lolohea and fusitua playing 3 different positions every month, then Lolohea is dropped for work ons and then reselected again in a brand new position!!
- I was wrong about Maumalo, he is not a winger and he sucks in that position, if I can see it why couldn't Cappy?
- He starts SJ at 6 and then a few weeks in puts him back at 7.... I mean come on!! whats up with that! - they admitted SJ could not run the team at 7 so removed him then threw him back there.
- He signs Robson and played him and then let him go, how could he not see he was not going to work?
- He ok's the trade of RFM for Lane and them releases Lane to Manly, an aggressive club built on mongrel. Seriously, seriously who taught these guy how to secure talent and release it. Its terrible.
- Matulino and Lillyman back and forth from starting to bench.... where's the standard
- Roach is hooker, then Tevaga is hooker, then Hingano is hooker
- Ashyford is a bench back, really?
- Hingano trains for what 3 or 4 seasons at the Warriors at number 6 and then plays NRL at Hooker? - seriously its ridiculous, its insulting to anyone who loves the warriors and watch them over all grades.

Lolohea looked a superstar in the making in 2015, he has been mucked around so much I feel the instinct has been coached out of his game, he has completely gone backwards. He potentially is a wrecked player as of now.

How can we tolerate and feel inspired about Cappy being the coach next season?, how ?

Could it be something as simple as putting and advt. "Coach wanted" in the RL Week, Big League, SMH and a couple of other papers, carrying out interviews and appointing the best candidate?
If it's too difficult get an agent to do it.
We can ASSUME that coaches from far and wide are lining up for the job privately. We can ASSUME that Bellamy, Bennett is sitting next to each other outside Doyles office dressed to impress and early for their job interview. Theres bound to be private applicants lining up for Cappys position and probably some BIG name coaches sending Doyle their cock pics to help influence Doyles decision to axe Cappy and replace him with them. Who are they? I got no idea, there just IS a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.

You echo some valid points that Ive heard others mention. I deleted those points to answer your question - my answers anyway.

While I'll be pissed off if Cappy is to carry on as coach, the frusteration will pass within two days. The forums our punch bag so we can just jump on here and give you shit cos apparently your public enemy no.1 lol. I think we'll all just have to embrace the decision and get behind our team and 'lets gone Warriors' which I think is a fitting slogan with the dumb shit the team does at times but hey, we got their back right?

before the season i was told by a friend of mine that cappy had 3 weeks to have the team 3-0 or else he was gone. the person who told me said doyle told them. after 3 weeks we were 0-3 but cappy was still there. i reckon doyle knows cappy COULD become a good coach but we need someone to get this group to mould together. id say after the warriors end of year awards and season review cappy is gone.
my pick is Kearney will be the next head coach of the warriors.
im surprised the nz media haven't started to put 2 and 2 together

I'd like to think it's Kearney as coach but we can only hope and wonder. Kearney would be my pick.

I'd be sniffing around Hasler tbh, think it might be time for a change for him

Why is Bellamy's name being mentioned, I'm sure he extended his contract early to mid season with Storm.
I was just using Bellamy and Bennetts name as an example of what we do know and what we dont. We do know, that its well known that Cappys coaching career is on the line, a possible vacancy at the Warriors is well advertised. We can assume that expressions of interest to Doyle by potential coaches is already underway but then what do we really know. Kidwell is the only one I know of so far. I can only guess theres others.

Also, it's funny that this thread started 20 minutes into this season

I have no real attachment to signing a 'proven' coach.. but Kidwell isn't a great choice I think... someone here was saying before that he backed Farah somehow when Farah was knifing Potter (I think? maybe it was he was trying to knife Taylor) at the Tigers? I forget the details. That, if true, automatically disqualifies him for me.

No thanks to Kidwell. And anyhow, if he's commenting publicly that he'd want the job, that says to me that Doyle hasn't contacted him. Doyle values a watertight media strategy.

Iron Lion's post was spot on early in the page about all the things Cappy has f**ked up. Hope they all make it into the season review.

Whomever it is, hope they bring a defensive coach as Morgan is a failure, second worst defense, only Knights worse on points conceded.

That first 20 mins was a pretty decent indicator as it turned out

Haha the season has actually been an improvement on that first half against the Tigers... But that whole first game pretty much mirrors the season. Horrible first half, good comeback to get us in a position to succeed, then dropped the bundle at the end.

Hey,

I have no idea who old mate Stacey is endorsing...

But he himself is the path forward.
