It's no coincidence that the well run clubs feature more consistently in finals, and rebuild and or recover quickly after a poor season. It's also no coincidence that our poorly run club is consistently positioned where we are which has got to impact on retention. If ever a club was a good...

Im not convinced about our pack at all - compared to most teams in the competition. There will have to be significant improvement in their physicality to sustain the demands of the competition and compete against the best with or without injury. I think the backs have enough ability to play of...

Coaching is always a factor as is the quality of your squad, but even the best coaches can't produce players out of nowhere when hit with injuries to key players let alone multiple injuries - classic example Souths last year. Strong clubs have good depth because players are prepared to stay at...

Def no guarantees but there are those always there abouts and then there is the rest.

It's all possibles and probables in the off season.

You honestly think that injuries don't play a part when you lack depth and a winning culture? This whole notion that we can compete at the same level as our competitors because we have a squad that looks better than usual is built on the back of false hope especially when things are skinny...

Don't think you can't predict that because you can't control incidentals. There is a reason why coaches only look at a game at a time. The aim is always to make the finals but so is every other clubs - and history shows that other clubs are more successful at that than we are. Alot will go...

Yep.

And which team of the current top 8 are we going to bump out - considering all or most are still contenders and or have strengthened?

To be a long serving coach you need to be at a successful club - they go hand in hand. Benji is a talented individual but he is not capable of single handedly turning the fortunes of this club but he will wear it like those before him.

It's not even mediocrity though is it . We were mediocre back when JT was hired and it's been downhill since.

Are you kidding no other supporters have endured what our supporters have had to put up with, and the "whinging" as you put it would be off the charts for all other supporter groups in our position. Their is a significant difference between whinging and identifying failure and demanding better...

The sympathisers/ defenders/ deflectors are much like the debenture holders as long as control is maintained winning/ success is secondary. It's obvious as dogs balls.

Of course the board at this club comes into every managers thought processes when negotiating with WTs - they are the ones doing the negotiations - hence the clauses and the inflated contracts that come at cost to us for years of sustained failure and question marks over the commitment of the...

This club is a transit lounge for talent on and off the field. You would have to have a short memory if you expected that Richardson alone was the answer, but he was a step in the right direction and gave us some credibility - just like Cleary and Maguire did when they took it on their coaching...

If Bula leaves .... same old same old. Backing players for future key positions to not be able to retain them. This is not the way to build a winning football team/ club.

New CEO thrown in the deep end left to negotiate a deal on behalf of a club where the board is no longer operating under the same conditions that it was previously and no one is sure what direction they are pulling in after intervention from the NRL, and you wonder why Bula hasnt committed yet...

Bula and his manager like every other player who is considering their future look at more than the people doing the talking when committing to this club. The people doing the talking rarely last but the back office remains as do the poor results. Maguire was never going to get another gig...

"Definitely have a part to play" - they are the biggest handbrake on the club and the very reason why we are stuck at the bottom of the ladder. How long do people have to hear from every person who knows something about success that "winning starts from the top" before WTs supporters still...

Would any player manager be doing their job by directing their players to the WTs if they had other options? How do you sell a club like ours without feeling like it is all BS. We are our own worst enemies at a time when the market is competitive and the WTs virtually shat over any credibility...
