I didn’t say there was bad blood, weren’t you asking to see where he was fired,

“Things can change pretty quick in footy”
- why would he say that if he was planning on moving on voluntarily?

I took that as the season started so well but didn’t end up that way who knows really

Interesting post

My thoughts are

Jerome and less extent AD were a thorn in Squads make up. Their combination definitely did not work. Not sure if jerome knee injury early made that worse.

Then jock stepped in and looked really good with Adam and not so good with jerome.

Adam had a reall good injury free period with jock. Adam looked elite. His downfall was literally not passing seen in the sharks game where if he passed to unmark player beside him instead of running over the player and reaching out to score would of avoided the injury. I think it would be silly of the club to forgot about adam form during this period.

fundamentally I think it was coach failure to pick the best 1 to 17 along with insufficient leadership and depth to cover injuries

Not across the swans but sounds like they might have a settled squad which is the opposite of the wests tigers.

Next year same old same old who are the halves going to be, with latu in the mix who hardly played last year will benji get it right? We have been very unsettled club under benji

Has the club ever not been unsettled even before Benji?

“The club would kill for a Phil Gould to shake things up and give Marshall the help he needs.”

We had that in Richo & they rissoled him what a joke

What help was Richo giving him? The set up in place this season is the exact set Richo had in place.

Signing average richdigital players

So, does any of the blame for this come down to Bula's organising at fullback.

I keep hearing his organising at fullback is very good but the overlaps are still always there.

Just imagine for a minute that his organising from the back is really good and all the other players don't follow instruction or are too slow to react, but Bula is seeing what is developing, then why is he more often than not still late on the scene as the final line of defence? 🤔

Where are you hearing it's good? It's atrocious.

could we please have Bnji realese from his role....his is hopless and will be....it is not celebrity apprentice....real life is much harder...excuses want change it... no guts and no imagination
he is honeslty hopless for tigers... time to change

Funny u say that...his style is unusual,and I think he is ole playing..like CA...,offend the leasr number of ppl u can so u woot get voted off.
Its why he avoids confrontation
Problem is,this is a results oriented busiess and youve gotta make difficult decisions in the glare of the media spotlite
His style wont work

Maybe if he was suddenly offered a new position elsewhere - change - quickly
We can read into things whatever we want I guess

At the end of the day I hope a new D coach can help our team, Johnny Cronk didnt do much for us...I hope Fred and Barney are gone too but that doesnt seem like eventuating

The board extended Benji & SM brought Richards in as the GM when we needed better

Funny thing, I read articles on WTF and also look at our website and the NRL site every day but for the life me I cannot remember seeing a fond farewell to our great beloved 5/8 LUAI, or was this just something I just missed, cause even bad players get thanked for their time at the club, not that I felt he deserved a BBQ or anything at all.
But normally our club gives a player that, Good Bad or Indifferent.

Did I just miss it.????

You ok dennis?

That was abrupt

Its laughable that these blokes call themselves journos yet not one has done a deep dive expose into hbg.. they are nothing but rumour mill gossip columnists

He played the "business card" when he up and left. So i have no issue if he didnt get a personal farewell. He did a job. Thanks for coming. See ya.

Even better would be a Netflix style documentary. Its been almost 12 months and old Danny boy still hasnt explained his backflip to the people he said he cared so much about in his inital address. They'd all crumble on the camera and the truth would reveal itself. Everyone would see their true motives and priority of wests magpies - not wests tigers.
