sheens has his back now , but if we are 0/7. Or even worse 0/9. He won’t last as the pressure from media , fans , probably players internally , will change Sheens mind
0/7
I would walk Flanagan in and one instruction play who ever you want where ever you want them playing , any kick back from players we get rid of them season end

The Warriors are better than us? We'll finish 16th and they'll be 15th so with that logic you are probably right. They are as bad as us. As inconsistent as us. Have had no success recently like us. So you think we should never be in a position to beat a team like the Warriors? Give me a break.
Yep, you would probably go with Walsh, but not by much IMO. Laurie has been mud this year but for the most part last season he was reliable and consistent.
And no, we shouldn't sack the coach. Sack some underperforming players out there dropping balls, missing tackles and just being hopeless in general.

Now I know you're kidding
- Walsh was picked for Origin - We got Daine from Panthers reserve grade
as their 3rd choice FB.
I saw Walsh bust games open on his own last year... Never seen that from Daine.
I would suggest Walsh is a better player and has more impact on a game of football than anyone in our backline (Maybe all of them together).

You're trying to twist my point,
Look at the team lists on paper - And tell me how many of our players you'd prefer in the team than theirs - For each spot. My guess is it will be less than half...
That makes them a better team than us!!

Do I think they're beatable - Yes... Do I think we're a chance against the Titans - Sure...
But if we lose, It won't be the CEO or the Coach's fault...

Losing games isn't the coaches fault? He has to take SOME of the blame... Do only the wins get credited to him?

What are you talking about....
He's taking more blame - And more heat than anyone...

Was it his fault we didn't win last week?
 
Madge sounds pretty reasonable and sound here.
Dunno how a random round 4 game is one of Madge's most critical game during his 3 seasons...
 
8th

Those 3 players you mentioned are exactly the type of players we could use to improve our squad.

A well rounded, young, fullback.
A hard nosed experienced prop.
A second rower who is equally as good in attack and defence.

No debate.

Just really good players in their position mate…
Most our boys are just ok.

We have holes in our roster.
Needs to be addressed.

Majority of our FG second rowers are walking out the door at the end of the season - Kelma, Luciano and possibly Garner.

And we've made one signing in Papaliii to replace them.

That's just 1 of many examples - I hope there's a plan here because the holes will still remain.
 
The place is a circus. I’m sure in 2016, we would have thought we’d have been a consistent finals team by now. Some would have even thought we’d have a premiership. It’s why I long gave up on us only being 2 to 3 years away which has been a common catch cry over the years. We never are, and won’t be again anytime soon regardless of who the coach and halfback is.

No they're not - But they have more Worldbeaters than we do...
The Warriors would almost equal, or best us man for man, In each position for the majority of the 17 that played the other night.
And they've got more than 1 game breaker....
News flash bro... They are better than us.

You thinking we might be able to beat them doesn't change that!!
No one picked us to beat them, And we didn't...
Could have and should have means very little...

We're favourites for the spoon based on the squad that we have, Not the way we're coached.
If Madge was coaching a team with Haas, Staggs, DCE, Murray and Latrell.... He'd be an amazing coach - He's not, So we should sack him.

You’re talking about underdogs and punching above your weight, in a previous post saying that Curran is effectively a better forward than Stefano. Remind me (and many others) to continue snoozing on these rants…

He is arguing semantics and not performance. Lol

On top of what's coming, next year - 1st grade is short...
2 second rowers
2 Centres
1 Winger
2 Props (At least)
1 Fullback.
1 Lock

We've got a ways to go

True, it's the quality of player we have. But, the coach and CEO are in their 4th year together building the squad, a terrible squad.
That's why they need to go

I too thought we would have improved on the "Robbie Farah", "big 4", "Jason Taylor" debacles. It did not occur to me that things could get a lot worse than that. I really can't believe the shambles we're in at the moment. I'd take 9th place in a heartbeat.

People made the mistake believing that getting rid of Taylor would solve everything. And instead of learning that it didn’t, they are making the same mistake all over again thinking that it’s the coach and halfbacks fault now and they have to go. Someone always has to be a scapegoat.
