Love, Love, Love…..all we need is love,....., all we need is love, ....., all we need is love, love, ..love is all we need.

Lol. Love is in short supply on this forum at the moment NT. So much angst… :angry:
Everyone going around in circles, tit for tat, saying the same thing again and again. :laughing:
Well at the moment I'm happily packing my suitcase, for a 2 week trip to Arugam Bay on the East coast of Sri Lanka, to watch my boys surf to their hearts content, while my daughter and i soak up the suns rays :wink:
Hopefully when i return the forum would be a happier place to visit. See you guys. Try not to kill each other while I'm gone. :laughing:

Brilliant. Have a great holiday.

Something funny from the other night. I was at the game, listening to the ABC. Taylor came on the big screen and a chorus of boos rang out. After Taylor, it went straight to a shot of McGregor. Andrew Moore says "Paul McGregor just came up on the big screen and he was greeted with thunderous boos. Idk what that is about". Lol

Probably the ABC was a bit slow on the uptake, but I think the Dragons fans are equally fed up. There was definately a strong reaction from the away members every time Taylor was mentioned

Have a great holiday. I hope it improves a lot as well. I can't wait until all this drama is behind us.
 
Farah - best hooker in the team (no doubt and question about it)

Why was he dropped?
- JT has stated he is the best hooker but he is not the best for team cohesion (a bit recalcitrant)

Hindsight is good:

Farah saying that Potter can’t coach – he should’ve just admitted it and not denied it and said something along these lines – “yes, I did say that but that was a year ago but he proved me wrong” – this ends the story.

JT drops him to reserve grade – he could’ve said to the media when questioned – look I know that I have still have a lot to offer the team – in his opinion I am not good for team cohesion but I am going to prove him wrong, work hard and fight my way back in – I am going to work with him and see where he is coming from.

Are those things hard to do? Maybe it is if you put your pride/ego is in it. “IF” you love the club and have the best interest of the club at heart, I think you will just make no comment about it and deal with it in house.

We all agree that he is still the best hooker in the team but if you or I was the coach. Would you put him in if he doesn’t listen to instructions? I will leave that for you to answer.

My brother is a coach of a local basketball team and he has one very good player who doesn’t listen to him. What does he do? He benches him, he tells him to listen or otherwise find another team that will take him. He told me he felt sorry for this kid as no one will take him because of his attitude that’s why he left him on the bench. He still plays minutes but when he does something against the coach’s instructions he goes back to the bench. A team is a team not just him. Without his teammates he can’t win the game alone and he needs to play the way the coach wants him to play. His teammates still love him because they are mates but sometimes I could see in them that they wish that he wasn’t playing.

Is this any different to the Farah situation?

Ridicule me if you want for making it as simple as it is. There’s always two sides to the story. We don’t know what happened when he was told he was to play reserve grade. Maybe because he was rocking the boat already, who knows? Undermining the coach? Unfortunately we will not know the full story.

Each of us is entitled to our own opinions and we will always agree to disagree. We all have our gripes about JT and/or Farah. I respect and I am grateful for what Robbie has done for the club but I support JT for whatever he has done. They need to work together but the coach always has the last say. He is the coach; he is like the father figure. When a team doesn’t win, whose job is it is on the line? Not the players but the coach.

My concern is this – why does Farah keep dragging the good name (whatever is left of it) of the club through the mud. If he loves the club then just stop. I LOVE the West Tigers and no player is bigger than the club! :frowning: :frowning: :frowning:

Very well said. Definitly alot more to this then we are being told, and we can only guess the real reasons. I would add that the head honchos the people paid to run this club arent doing a good job with it. The fact that Oneil has stayed pretty quiet and Pascoe has said this is JT's decision alone tell me not much love is being given to JT there. The fact they allow JT to cause this tension in round 20 tells me they are trying to force Farahs hand. If it all works out, Farah will be playing at either the dragons or sharks next year, we will be paying half his salary and the money we save will be used on securing ET. With JT hopefully gone aswell, you get someon like Cleary to come in with a clean slate, and this leads to our core players Brooks, moses and tedesco re-signing and forming a great partnership with liddle.

That would be a good end to this whole saga, hope you are right.

Poor old Justin Pascoe appears to be in an impossible situation. If he does nothing about Robbie's comments, he will more than likely be seen as supporting his criticism of JT. If he moves to disclipine Robbie for his remarks, he will more than likely alienate Robbie's army of fans and supporters many of whom are members. He'll earn his CEO's pay this week!

It's not impossible, it can all be managed internally. Put him on a first and final warning not to publicly criticise the club or the coach and make the terms of the sanction non-disclosable to the public.

That's a fair workplace practice, Sadam hussien used a similar policy. Worked for a while…..

Admittedly i don't give it too much thought, but it keeps you biting.

An Independent Contractors' professional arrangement with a sporting club, and a Dystopian political regime are two very different things….. :crazy

Jeez if only we had him as a CEO rather than Mayer. I think he may have been looking for a career change around that time.
