I'm a fan of Madge but wouldn't be against it at this point. Worst start we've ever had to a season.

The thing which bothers me the most is we never appear to have a gameplan suited to the team, or a strong or the right team in the first place. Some players look out of place/position or like they aren't up to NRL level.
Our defence is horrendous and the team plays some dumb footy, and I don't mean that as a personal dig at the players but we always manage to look incompetent and chaotic when any pressure comes along.

The team plays as though they don't want to play for Maguire. It's sad but it is over.

This is all coaching isn't it. We just go to pieces at times.

Sack Brooks
 
We’re going backwards. He’s in his third year, team isn’t showing any signs of improvement, rumours he can’t sign players.

Might be time to bite the bullet while we have salary cap space.
 
I can't think of a player Madge has improved.

The final straw for me is that the worst player in this or any team, Moses Mbye has NEVER been dropped.

I believe Shane Flananang should be made head coach. He is a strong defensive coach a gets the most out of his players and is looking for any opportunity?

I'd love Flano. But the waaah waaah brigade won't have it. We don't have cheats here, except our CEO .

Sign him up. The wash wash brigade is always here

We'll sign Morris. He's a former player and everyone feels sorry for him atm.
We'll look like good guys.

Compare this to how Payten picked us apart with his game plan and strategies. I think the modern game has left Madge behind.

Haha, and wash, rinse repeat ?
 
As soon as Musgrove made a half hearted lazy wave of his arms at a manly player and they scored the heads collectively went down.The loss is on the players,certainly Madge didnt help by putting a chicane at centre (MCK) or bringing Garner and Seyfarth earlier than he did but the players on the field caused the disaster.
Having said that i would be on the phone to Johnnie Cronk urgently to get him as an assistant coach.
 
Man, oh man, i feel for Madge. I wanted it to work, i had faith.
What upsets me the most is its quite clear - the players aren't playing, they aren't having fun, they don't look like they're enjoying the footy....and unfortunately that in any sport usually means the manager has lost the dressing room.

Has he though? He rose, plateaued and is now sliding down the other side of the hill.
 
I wasn't on the "sack him" bandwagon, but that's changed now.

This is the worst start to a season we've ever had from memory.

We've gone backwards and with an overall better looking squad on paper.

The extension Madge was given.....is there a clause in that????
 
Last week the Titans also got smashed by Manly - under heralded coach Holbrook. We are a bottom four squad we will continue to be inconsistent. Take your pick who to sack it wont change anything in the shorterm it will just create more drama around the club.
We are just not good enough and have no really good players in key positions.
