A poll for Col: Who should coach WTs?

Well Steve, I am coming out as (being the now fourteenth) having voted Taylor, despite being one of the early and more vocal (typed) of his critics on here around this time last year. Having evolved our play since that very low point and phased out the rubbishing of of his predecessors and management, he has gained some respect from this end, with his support staff and subsequent changes also getting a tick from me.

I actually like what I have been hearing from him this year, particularly in the post match pressers, lightly praising the group early on, then sharing the reasons for subsequent defeats with and amongst the playing group, Having stated that and trusting that he is doing everything through the correct channels week to week, if we cop another caning from the officials like that of last week, I want him to give them both barrels.

Overall we have been going okay for our roster and probably more competitive than a lot on here thought we would be, even if we are a bit rough around the edges. That said, if we don't fix our error rate and start translating our effort into more wins, then my vote will be for change.
 
How often have we heard, "time to get rid of him, he's lost the change room" or "he doesn't have a clue, sack him"?

According to an inside, up to date, report, Jason Taylor has the **overwhelming** support of the playing group. So the change room is not lost. The playing group must think that he does have a clue, that his plans are working and there is improvement.

Yes there are a couple of exceptions within the playing group that don't support the coach. I wonder who that might be? Personally, I would be extremely surprised to find any coach that held 100% support of all players.

And yet, in spite of this, some experts are calling for the removal of Jason Taylor. That does not sound like 'performance based' criticism to me! Sounds more like someone has an axe to grind.

So now we get rid of another coach? Yeah team! Bring on the mediocrity!

I have no doubt he has the support of much of the playing group because he wont drop them.if i was a player who he keeps on picking i would support him as well

Yeah, that must be it. Sorry, I didn't think of that.

Why don't we sound Robbie out to coach the team, everyone says he has to much power so give him the power and solve 2 issues at the same time lol
 
I don't reckon Robbie would want the coaching job. He would want Pascoe's job, with the power to sack the coach.

I can't believe that anyone would pick Taylor based on what we've seen so far from the guy.

I think the same about Cleary.

Agree , I think Cleary's another drip .

He's the best option on the list by a mile. Taken teams to grand finals. Took Penrith to a pre lim final with 2 thirds of the squad injured. He was the only coach who could get consistency out of the Warriors and had them regularly making the finals. Most underrated coach of this era.

But

The issue isn't his credentials, it's why would someone with his credentials would want to come here?

To be fair I think he has improved a lot this year. I even heard him talk this week and some of the posters here must be feeling all weird because he said Robbie was inspirational last week. On field as well I haven't seen any evidence of poor game plans. We just haven't been executing well enough.

At the same time Brooks and Moses don't want to sign because of the coaching situation which implies they want JT gone.

Well known quote from a fairly well known coach:

"The hardest thing about coaching is keeping the 4 blokes that hate your guts away from the other blokes that dont"= Jack Gibson.
 
I'm surprised Toovey scored so low. Maybe if Cleary wasn't an option he would score significantly higher

Mate - you have to get serious - he has never coached a team and you are going to put him in charge of an NRL team.

Could not coach to save his life.

They don't want to sign for more than a year.

Maybe because they want JT there in 2017 and beyond.

It is all in the reading.

Well that would be a step forward then, because we are yet to reach mediocre under Taylor.
 
Bring back Steve Folkes to toughen them up.

We need some one to deliver tough love and drop underperformers. :crazy :crazy :sign:
