Correct, but even more pressing, he needs 3 of those before June 30 so that we are cap compliant.

I can just see 3 nuffies from our lower grades getting a promotion and if so, It better only be to the end of this season and not offered the usual 3 year deal because they have potential.

The clock is ticking, hope it's not a time bomb, but then many would say that this place has already been blown up or at the very least should be. ⏰

We don't need to fill 3 positions before June 30th, as the players that left this year can still count in our top 30.

Except give us the best defence that we’ve ever had in our existence. There is definitely truth to the fact that our problems go deeper than who’s coaching us. I’ve always said that. However we do ourselves no favours, appointing someone with no experience, all because he’s a club legend. No other club in the competition would have done that. When you think about it, it’s one of the symptoms of the deeper seeded issues and shows why we have been so poorly run for years.

Is it just me or has Richo gone "missing" lately
After his announcement of 2 or 3 exciting new recruits a couple. of months ago I've heard nothing ?

Is he missing or hard at work getting alot done and focusing solely on the result of his work….i think this is just his style of operation

Under Sheens - He was the Attack coach
Farah was the Defense Coach.
Sheens said it himself...
I'm not blaming the apprentice for our shite attack....
I'm blaming the attack coach.

If he's underskilled - Don't take the job.
I don't see the blokes refuelling the plane putting on a set of aviator sunnies a hat and a badge and then flying the things!!

Benji the apprentice taking directions 😂😂😂
How many apprentices are getting the site manager (Sheens) sacked - For the 2nd time.
so they can take over the project before they've finished the 1st year of their apprenticeship?

So why then, now, are you not 'blaming the attack coach'? Who, for 2025, is Hodgson...

Benji has now been head coach for a season and a half.

So, which is it? Is it Benji the attack coach that was the problem in 23? Or is it Benji the head coach 24/half of 25?

Either you blame the head coach for the overall systems under their tenure (correct) or you blame the attack coach entirely for the attacking output of a side (incorrect).

Ergo, Benji, as head coach, has been responsible for developing his structures (attack and defence) for 18 months, which, for the entire time, he has had an enigmatic, unpredictable, sideways-running 5/8th in his halves (as was my original point).

This also hasn't been 'Benjis' 3rd year Coaching the attack of this side...'
 
Every time I see Harry Triguboff's name on the rich list I think what a huge missed opportunity it has been. I know there has been a lot of history there but man how things could of been different if he was taking a Laundy or Tripp type role in the club. If Richo can't get him on board, I think very few people can.

Harry is an astute businessman. He would want people he trusts in position of authority and accountability.

What a dumb argument
- Benji is now the attacking coaches coach (boss) is he not?

Nothing like a free ride....

It's not a dumb argument.

I'm not defending Benji's ability to coach the side, nor am I saying he's not in charge.

You can't have your cake and eat it too.

Either the assistants are to blame or the head coach is to blame.

- Benji is now the attacking coaches coach (boss) is he not?

Wouldn't that then make the '23 head coach, Sheens, also the attacking coach's coach? Meaning it was Sheens who was responsible in '23?

Either way, your statement that 'Benji has been in charge of the attack for 3 years' is illogical.

So which is it? Is the assistant to blame for the head coach's structures? or is the head coach to blame for the head coach's structures?

(hint; it's the latter, which, at best, makes your 'Benji has been in charge of attack for 3 years' comment, inaccurate by an order of 2x, given he's only been head coach for a season and a half)

No just seeing a formula to how Richo operates over many years. He makes sure the ducks are in a row before he releases anything to members.

He'd know losing a star junior is another kick in the guts for the club & supporters, so will counter this with something big - either a high profile or multiple signings.

I'd be very surprised if this isn't the outcome. Richo is shrewd!
