The whole forum? no I don't think so, certainly things are said without any actual evidence to back them up, but I wouldn't say the whole forum.
Again, you could say that and you would expect that to happen, but without actually knowing, it's still all supposition.
I think he did a fantastic job for us when he came on board, I don't think anyone in their right mind can dispute that. However, since '05 things haven't kicked on as expected. '06 was a right off due to injury and some of the worst ref decisions you'll see, but the team selections during '07-'09 and now again in '11 have left many to question Sheens' recent ability to coach. Still one of the best? yeah past record certainly suggests that, up there with Bennett? that's up for debate, which is why he was brought up earlier by Bug.
And the Raiders still managed to have 8 SOS players in that side (although 2 became SOS players that year) and 2 Kiwi internationals.
I'm sure plenty of star studded teams over the years have managed to get away with rorting the cap.

Yeah not the whole forum but most of it look at the numerous sheens threads and all the people coming out saying oh i heard this and i reckon that when by your logic with no EVIDENCE.
You could put 2006 down to injuries as you say but then why wouldnt you use the same reason for 2007 benji got injured payten,whatuira and gibbs we used 35 players in 06 and 36 players in 07 so what you on about.
07 we run 9th and only missed out by for and against.
IM GIVING UP TRYING TO EXPLAIN THE DIFFERENCES WITH WHAT BENNETT HAS HAD TO WORK WITH FOR 20 YEARS AT THE BRONCOS.Sheens coached penrith canberra cowboys and then tigers and canberra were the only team he took over that wasnt a complete mess on and off the field.
Gees dave i will remember to put down the sources of the info…..its called google and i have all the books and i have a memory like a elephant.
IM certain of it its like melbourne when they got caught most people that follow league wernt suprised with the roster they had so you know without having evidence.haha
Anyway dave i dont get your point your trying to make you havent added very much except try and nitpic me.
