Guess with Thurston, Scott etc they not only lost great players but leaders...
yeah, the comment above about Holmes made me think of the leadership, at Cronulla the likes of Gallen, Lewis and Ennis would have stamped any petulance out I'd imagine, and presumably Scott, Thurston, Cooper, and Morgan did similar there...Plus players like Granville and Hess who were magnificent in 16-17, but have faded badly. They need a new environment.
Tood, I recon it will be Todd. He has been too outspoken and well we saw while he was here, he can be a bit shifty.
I think he will be found out, or he will fall foul of management.
It was really strange the whole saga of him accepting/declining our gig then the cowboys job.Tood, I recon it will be Todd. He has been too outspoken and well we saw while he was here, he can be a bit shifty.

Would love to know the real story of what was actually going on behind the scenes.
One thing I would say though is it is a pretty sad indictment on the cowboys squad that our boys could handle his "directness" and "call outs" and they apparently can't/couldn't.
Strange Walters isn’t getting a mention... is he actually a decent NRL coach, how long will the Broncos tolerate Gold Coast level performances?
well even Bluey got most of the season before he was kicked to touch. I think most new coaches are relatively safe for awhile. Morris might have been under the pump if Sharks had started badly but they are doing ok.
yeah, I figure Hook, Todd, Walters, and Barrett are relatively safe for a bit, Brown too - but only Hook and Brown (latter more through having some punch in the pack finally) have shown much - and tbh, despite the better pack we're not going any better than end of last yeatsurely after they sacked their coach last year they need to give Walters a year plus to turn things around
so far we only have:
- Maguire
- Todd
-Walters
don’t we see atleast 3 or 4 coaches get the sack each year

Maguire has had a few years and not much is improving, Hasler is just strange but has had injury and tragedy this year...
Money's tight, might be fewer casualties than normal?
