Potter on 2MMM

[tigerlogic]

well mr Potter your the person with his head on the chopping block .drop Anasta never to be seen again in the top grade ,because if you persist you are a dead man walking .the guy with the fuzzt hair ava? is a goose giving a penalty away with 90 seconds on the clock ,then with 30 seconds to go we I think Patterson gives away another penalty and two points ,,they just couldn't back themselves to make 3 more tackles .for christs sake their half was Michael Witt and even he made us look silly at times
as for going off the game plan ,that's just another potter cop out .we had 70 percent of the ball and we had control ,problem was when saints had the ball we couldn't control them .

We didn't have 70% of the possession! Would love to see where you got that from

We had 57 percent of the ball when the scoreline was 18 all

I wonder if Potters comment was aimed at Tedesco

He went to Tedesco a lot who seemed at times to be playing as a six

Just my view after watching the game twice

"A couple of blokes who **should know better**"

Teddy is still a rookie…20 games

Well it can't be Anasta or Farah so who else ??

If potter has told him not to listen to Farah or Anasta we are royally buggered IMO

Why can't it be Farah or Anasta? Mick wants Brooks to play what he sees and that can mean over ruling the experienced players. The game was still in the balance when lulia stole the ball in their quarter. A poor attacking kick and then a run away try in the next set cost them.

After that try, some of our forwards dropped their bundle. Forwards with a handful of games to their name, not seasoned First Graders. The level of capitulation in the last 15-20 minutes was very disappointing but I am not sure that it should have been completely unexpected.

Its Farah & Anasta

The kid obviously has a lot of natural talent These senior players should allow him to play his natural game. He would be more relaxed, composed and have his wits about him. By all means if the kid loses his composure he should be encouraged by the senior players but that's as far as they should go.

I would like to see Potter see out the year , but as we all know Potter is walking a thin line and needs to get results.Farah totally went of the game plan after 20 minutes and I'm not sure if Potter can rein in his ego.

If he does go we need to fork out for a big name coach who will not put up with this crap from Farah eg Bellamy or Hasler type coach.Its basically their way or the highway and the players know it and respect it.

So we lost because of Farah. Tell me what changes has potter done since he came to the club and what do you think he will do ? In my eyes he can't coach plane and simple. Was the game plan not to tackle your heart out cause that's what I see in Farah week in week out. Thanks potter with those comments you won't last to long

Interesting tidbit for you lads:

Joel Luani Played in the game vs the Dragons for Luke Brooks debut at hooker, not Farah.

….

Hmm..

Criticise a professional coach with a wining resume when you cant even spell a simple word like PLAIN.?

I hope Mick stamps his authority.

Regardless of what the fans or media think, put Robbie or Braith or both in NSW Cup for a week or 2 if they need it.

One thing you cannot have in an NRL side is the players running rough-shot over the coach.

A few of us have made that observation previously.

Yet others can't seem to see common denominator of the shambles that has been the last 3 years.

They are coach killers and there is nothing Potter can do about it. Farah will demand a release and management will sack Potter. Anasta won't cost Potter his job but Robbie will.

Farah will cost Potter his job whether he acts or doesn't act and Farah knows this

Very interesting, It will be interesting to see how the team folds out this week

It will be interesting to see how secure in his position Potter is this week.

These are the comments of a coach feeling betrayed by senior playing staff.

Farah openly displays no respect toward Potter at press conferences

I don't think anyone criticises Robbie for his commitment or his defensive efforts! Rather, the criticism stems from his inability to allow the half back to call the shots - regardless of that halfback's level of experience. It's not Robbie's job to do the halfback's job! Plain and simple. He needs to stick to his job and let the other players do theirs. If he does and the team still fails then it falls to the coach to make things right. But if Robbie continues to overplay his hand then the team will never be able to play the way Potter wants it to and we'll never actually see whether Potter can coach or not.
Robbie is at heart a selfish footballer - that's maybe O.K. when you are in the juniors and way above everyone else in ability. (Although Gary Freeman when coaching Farah in juniors left him on the bench for that very reason)! But at this level, everyone has a job - and Farah while trying to do everyone else's is not doing his as well as he can.

Farah had potter at his 30th birthday party, I'm pretty sure they have a good relationship, cannot possibly question their respect or relationship with one another off one game haha, but u don't invite someone to a private party if the relationship is no good.
Seeing as though the context they know each other is footy, any relationship they have off the field is built upon a mutual respect with footy.

Could be right, also could be that that are literally in the same building a floor apart.
