He is the only one accountable ATM

Support staff? Check
Minimal injuries? Check
Player talent? Check
Every presser he's said that the effort was there.. Then what's missing? So far, IMO it's been the game plan and the structure.

Something has to change now. We have been in a winnable position towards the end of almost every game this year. We are also missing that killer instinct to finish off the oppositions.

What's missing is players not following the game plan. I am sure the game plan doesn't include Farah to kick the ball dead on the third tackle or Brooks to not feed the scrum in a way we win it.

The biggest problem I see is Farah. For someone so experienced and also the captain and the highest paid player he sure does do some dumb things.

I agree Farah came up with a killer clutch play for the opposition. He has been doing that for a number of years. Truthfully though I don't think it is the issue.

There is something wrong with the coaching staff and the structures and its obvious. We don't look like scoring points apart from when we are in the opposition 20 metre line. We need some plays to threaten the line. We need some speed out wide. Richards needs to go. Lawrence probably needs to go but Richards a long time before him. That liability thread was 100% spot on.

We need Sirro to start busting the line or he will be the next to go.

Taylor though looks like an absolute dud. I think he is up there with on T Lamb at this point.
 
We have some very young inexperienced kids as our strike weapons,surrounded by a lot of plodders playing a boring predictable structured game plan, it's never going to work,every team knows exactly what they have to defend.If we had a massive pack that had speed and power it may work,but each week we are going backwards because the grind is taking its effect. I do not have a solution,but we do need to introduce some new talent into our squad next year or it will be exactly the same again
 
We are not executing the structure at the moment.

Nofo cost us a try and butchered a try in the first half….a function of nerves, new position and being a run short. He was much better as the game went on and will come on in leaps and bounds in the next few weeks.

We are not getting good starts to our sets which i think is hampering us being able to effectively execute the structure....i expect once nofo gets fully fit and simona comes back that will change.

Richards had a shocker (shouldn't happen again this season) and our pack didn't really dominate (although i thought they were on top for periods). We were 45 vs 55% with the ball and still we were a little unlucky not to win.

On the upside i thought Brooks and Moses had a real dig in defence and were much better. i trust Taylor and the team to keep working hard and turn the results starting from this week.
 
I agree that Brooks and Moses were good in defence at times. But they need to run the ball and take the line on. When Brooks did this he scored and when Moses ran he looks fast and exciting.

Our forwards do not dominate hence these 2 buggers get targeted all day, this will put them in good stead for the future but is taking its toll now.
 
I have never been a fan of Taylors. All the stupid things he has done after becoming intoxicated. A few good wins would have made me happy. This has not happened. I still think Potter was ok.

I think JT got the job through his friendship with Brian Smith. The board hired Smith to have a look at things. Then Taylor gets the job. Smells fishy to me.
 
I will give Taylor the rest of the season, but come next year he should be judged like Potter and Sheens and if by the end of 2016 we are still a bottom six team than he should face the chop, but I will give him some time to bed in his structures and hopefully recruit some players for next year
 
I'm concerned with how pedestrian our attack has been lately. Not a lot of creativity out there, very structured and I don't think this suits Brooks or Moses TBH - these kids are used to playing what's in front of them. They should be allowed to call their own shots.
 
just watched JT press conference, he says that the game was there to be won at the end, but may question JT is how the hell are u going to win it with 5 one out hit ups and a bomb. he is starting to really dribble at the conferences says a lot but as we see on the paddock there is nothing going on. feel he might be out of his depth.

So you never did anything stupid when you were young?

We all do silly things when we're young. The thing is, I am not a high profile public figure.
Stupid things Taylor did: when playing for Norths, after a game v Saints he crash tackled a Saints supporter going for a beer at Norths Leagues Club. & who can forget urinating in a cup and tossing it in the air during the Mexican Wave at the cricket. He got tossed out for that. Then there was him getting on the grog with the Souths players on their Mad Monday. Too bad Fialongo didn't break his jaw!

But like I said earlier, some good results will go a long way towards me thinking he is OK. I cant see that happening any time soon.

I think Taylor got the job because of his relationship with Brian Smith, who did a review of the football club just prior to Taylors appointment. Just my 2 bobs worth.
