My Thoughts On 2023 So Far...

[crazycat]

Won exactly the same amount of games.
Don’t kid yourself, if we lose Api tomorrow night for the rest of the year, we will struggle to win another game. If we lose Klemmer or Bateman with him, we will get the spoon.

True.

But that's the cost of the big names.
We miss 2 of those big names we are stuffed. I am just over the "depth" argument, it just breeds Fringe graders. You will get Fringe graders anyway, you might as well just get the ones who want to play with "Klemmer, Bateman, paps and Api".

Started off putrid going 0-7. Win 3/4 to get everyone sucked in and back to being putrid and starring down the barrel of back to back spoons. Yay Tigers

I think most of us expected another spoon.
Our real issue remains unsolved though. It doesn’t surprise me that the board want Brooks moved on. Like Joffa and others who have been awarded captaincy or player of the year, any type of leadership will not be tolerated by this board for too long.
I predicted before a ball was kicked this season that they would sack Sheens, and Benji and Robbie will follow soon after.
The signing of Fulton by Pascoe and Hagipantelis was not motivated by keeping us on track.

I totally agree Fulton brought in without Tims knowing till it happened is a power play by Pascoe and his other immovable boffin to say whos in charge !
We had a happy team that played fantastic football at LO 3 weeks ago and so Pascoe and his new recruit start their " rebuild " . We win 3 out of 4 including Premiers and 11 tries on Cows so they start clean out and I think morale is now rock bottom .How many years has Pascoe been there ? What has he achieved?

He pins his name to the CoE, but the reality is it would have happened regardless.
We need some real leadership in the boardroom.

I don't know how anyone can support Pascoe and Lee H anymore. When there is no respect for the leadership of the club it filters all the way through to the playing group.
I have been critical of some of Sheens decisions but appointing Fulton without his knowledge has made his position almost untenable in my view, and brings further embarrassment to the club.
Until the board has the balls to call time on these grandstanding incompetents we are going no where

I think the problem is the entire administration of the club not just the man in the silly hat and his partner.I doubt if anything would be happening without the full approval of the entire muppet show at board level

It seems my thread hasn't aged well. 🙂

I'm sick of Pascoe gloating about his shining acheivement the COE at Concord
Its a gym and a training field no where near our home grounds .
I bet its got a couple of really nice executive offices
Its not in same "ball park " as Parras Comm bank Stadium in the heart of Parramatta right next door to their Leagues club or Penrith set up with a fortune in govt funds yet to be spent .Or the Roosters Allianz ( not really the roosters but they think it is ) . Not having a lot of impact so far Justin despite 4 top forwards signed this year weve gone from 16th to 16th
What really irks me is that despite a rough first 7 rounds we were starting to click beating Premiers ( with their origin stars ) and finally blowing a team (Cowboys with their origin stars ) off the park .That's something we haven't done for years
Now we are in the pits again and I suspect our non football executives have got involved ? Weve got 4 coaches ,Sheens ,Benji ,Robbie and Furner let them make all football decisions !

Hagipantelis is a sponsor, but then again, he also sponsors Knights and Rabbitohs.

"We need some real leadership in the boardroom"
Maybe our fabulous 🤣 COE could be better utilised by training our board members how to run the friggin club properly.

I feel John Dorahy now being on the board is a very positive step as he has lots of experience in admin at various levels and should be a calming voice of reason amongst the rabble.

I hope you are right and he is a sensible voice amongst the group.One of the problems is we dont know the ratio of "sensible" people on the board compared to the "fossils" because all you can see are the final results and decisions and they are abysmal

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

The fossils were good maybe. Heart. The new model is business. Thats why I love bellyache coaching ( not the man - dont know him). He makes a mountain of a molehill. Best coach for many years. Bennett a close second.
