Sack Marshall

There’s no way anyone can rate him. How can you, you have nothing to base rating him on. It’s all blind faith. Blind faith has never ended well at this club.
 
What Tucker said
They have bugger all resilience. They are not tough mentally nor physically. As a group, they show very little fight. Very little courage. It’s piss weak for a professional sporting team.


Also the right coaching structure is not there also , which is why we are seeing poor ball distribution, tackling like 10 year old, poor positional play in attack and defense.
Players who can not pass left to right or right to left.
 
Wests Tigers can't continue to sack coaches as it does not and has not worked in the past and continues to put club at bottom of table each season and quality players will not be attracted to cone to WT. I like the idea of Brad Arthur coming on board the coaching team so Marshall can learn from him. I agree Flanagan should have got the role 2 years ago but we need to move on from it. I can still another 5 seasons of pain for the club.
 
I’m not sure sacking the coach is the answer right now, it may be in the future but today - it seems that the ramifications would be far greater then the yield of 2 or so extra wins they may pick between now and end of season with a new head coach.

Yes they are in a big hole.
Had to laugh a month or so back when members on here were confidently claiming “they aren’t far off”.
It must be nice to live in an ignorant state.
 
What is a culture of resilience? sounds like a line a garbage newspaper reporter or corporate executive would throw out when trying deal with something they can’t fix. “ we need to build a culture of resilience and dovetail that into a performance matrix to better rationalise KPI results when measuring outputs against targeted annual projections blah blah blah blah.

Look at the soo team, they lost by 28 points playing one man down in a side that contains the best players in their positions. The new version of the game is designed to have points scored, the problem with the new version of the game, a team disadvantaged in anyway will results in them conceding points and weak teams concede a lot.

There is no resilience culture that can withstand the amount dumb shit our players did on Friday night.

we have a squad that consists of 1 or 2 proven first grade players in their prime. The others are either up and comers, wannabes or has beens. The new coach and new club management are doing their best to build a roster.

Culture of resilience 😂
Benji’s doing his best 🤣

Since when does doing your best have anything to do with being a successful coach in the NRL… Was Benji doing his best while he was on holidays with his family last week?

Imagine living in a world where it didn’t matter if you were any good at what you were doing, but as long as you were doing your best it is ok… You’re funny 🤣

There are plenty of teams that make more errors than what we made on Friday, and against better teams than we were playing on Friday… They don’t get 8 tries in a row put on them…

We will have to agree to disagree, but in my opinion that comes back to a resilient culture, where regardless of how many errors you make you keep turning up, not throw your hands in the air and say it is all too hard, which is what the Tigers did on Friday.

We had the current nsw coach and the results were the same.

My point is sacking Benji isn’t going to turn our result’s around. Upgrading the squad is. They are doing their best to recruit.

We agree we Are shit. I say it’s player ability you say it’s culture. Been around for a lot of years and seen bad teams, sporting and corporate go from shit to good but none and I repeat none did it with the same rosters. Personal change drove the results and the changes vary rarely involved management Change. Management change should only come about when you had a performing team turn to non performing and even then it should be after establishing the cause of the drop.
 
Our squad cannot deal with adversity. Be it a perceived contentious ref decision or unlucky try scored against them, they react poorly everytime.

They were flying on Friday, up 12 nil and had Saints stretched then the errors started. Three unforced in a row leading to a lucky try from a highball knock back. Yes that was a bad passage of play…did they knuckle down and get back on track? Nope, they let in a very easy try in our worst defensive effort of the game. After this they somehow managed to hit back and take the halftime lead, did that pump them up? Nope, they refused to have a go for the entire second half.

They have bugger all resilience. They are not tough mentally nor physically. As a group, they show very little fight. Very little courage. It’s piss weak for a professional sporting team. Go ahead and laugh if you must. It doesn’t make it untrue.
That is inexperience and a lack of ability. You are right we were doing well at the start of the game, so our strategy set by the coaching team was good. Our players then stepped on the dicks repeatedly and due to a lack of ability they were unable to repel the points.

What resilience culture can you instil in a team that has proven now for the past 3 years under 3 different coaches that they cannot deliver results on the park. None.

Therefor you clean out the roster, which is what we are doing.

Culture has nothing to do with winning ability does. culture defines the fabric of a group but not the ability.

What is your point with current NSW coach?
 
Brian McDermott. He won four Grand Finals with Leeds alongside two Challenge Cups and the 2012 World Club Challenge. Not worth a look at to help Benji. Newcastle assistant coach.
 
I agree with Benji going on holidays and playing golf... I agree with Zoe, but has Zoe spared a thought for us in correlation with her husbands role? I dare she has. She's just sticking up for her husband. Innocent your honor. Afterall the game is built around the fan. Thats why the Romans made a spectacle of it.
