I just finished watching the 2nd half which I missed last night... A few things on the game later.
A lot of us are seeing a lot of positive things with our young guys coming thru... A bit of smart recruiting is urgently required... Probably a couple either centers or wing/center... A prop or two and a back rower... I know it's been discussed a million times here in the previous weeks.
My worry is without any signs of improvement in the last few games and next year our young guys will get sick of the same ol same ol and will jump at any chance for a better option (again been discussed here ad nauseam)
But I saw improvement last night... They were in the game with 5 minutes to go Probaly more on the scoreboard than on the field but it's a fact - 12 behind with less than 5 minutes no team can afford to relax.
They really had a dig and the effort was terrific but as always the final finishing touch is what's missing... I really think a better more experienced qualified coach can rectify this... I could imagine jobless NRL coaches at home watching us last night and thinking of how much talent there is here for them to work with.
Attack coach Farah
gone... Morris in defense isn't the answer..Heighno looks just lost most of the time.
This is the crucial most important recruiting I feel we need.
Let benji assist the head coach... Call em Co - Coaches if Benjis ego feels threatened.
A Huge overhaul of the coaching staff is reqd.
Reading parts of the live game thread before I saw the 2nd half... I wasn't expecting what I saw.
We are very very harsh here with emotions running high while the game is live.
I was reading what seemed to be a 3/10 effort when. I actually saw about a 7.5/10 tonite
Just on Benji I know he found himself in this position somewhat not of his own doing... Head coach earlier then expected. He and the other clowns who devised this lunacy have a lot to answer for.
Benji put his hand up initially with no experience (again discussed here to the nth degree) but I'm finding it now quite selfish of him especially when HE had the opportunity earlier to bring on Justin Holbrook to help him yet he said no. This is his ego putting himself before the betterment of the team. It really isn't fair on the players and fans/members.
Justin Holbrook 7 years head coach exp in NRL & ESL. Three years assisting Robbo at the chooks making prelim finals twice. He'd surely have a lot to offer certainly much more than Benjis getting now.
*I was quite proud of the effort last night... *The ref was pretty shithouse both ways.
*Coaching roster desperately needs an overhaul.
