OK, im not here to stir,

But why don't Parra target some English based players next year? They may miss the big talents in the NRL, are only buying crap in the NRL, so why don't they try and steal back a few ex-NRL players?

There are heaps floating around in pommy land, im sure if they nabbed a few then it couldn't be a bad thing....

Just a thought for you struggling buggers :idea:

Without a new coach I think we could recruit an all world team and still struggle.

I think its a joke to bag the coach, Ray Hadley really gave it to him this arvo. The players are the one swho play, u cant blame the coach

Yes, the coach has done a brilliant job to take us from the top and rapidly bring us down to the bottom :roll:

Bib, Have a look at the selections he's made in the last 5-6 games for Parramatta and his tactics. If the players arent performing well then surely the coach has to take responsibilty and get stuck into them.

And you're telling us thats he's done nothing wrong? :? :lol: :roll:

I dont understand you or Ray Hadley. After last weeks game there was a call for mass changes. Well now there have been mass changes and you dont like it. The only change i wouldnt have made for the tigers game was the dropping of John Morris, apart from that Smith made the right call.

I dont care what Ray Hadley says this is just my opinion, he made a few changes in this game I didnt agree on apart from sacking Morris:

Dean Widders at centres. Not a centre, he is a back rower, and didnt defend well today.

Keeping Wagon who is hopeless and leaving out Armit and Muckert who havent had much of a chance.

At least I agreed with him on dropping Langi and Dykes, but Bib I'm talking about before this game against the Wests Tigers, what about his selections in the games against Dragons, Cowboys, Storm and the Sharks.

The worst was starting Thorman at hooker and leaving Morris on the bench.

If the coach isn't to blame then why do we have one. Are you saying there are no good or bad coaches, just good or bad players?

Sounds to me like you're saying we might as well sack Brian Smith and sign up Ron Hilditch for $6.50. You know, you're right. We'd perform just the same and it'd save the club a lot of money. I like your style.
