The Wooden Spoon battle

@westTAHger said:
Where I work, there are 2 die hard knights supporters.
So, unless both wests-tigers or the knights dramatically improve, either way someone at my place of work will be getting a wooden spoon.
If it ends up being me, then so be it.

Exactly; take it like a man (or woman). All WT fans are going to cop it, may just not be in the physical form which I assume you are alluding to. I've come to this realisation. All part of the grief and loss process….. Acceptance!

It has been a very very long time since the Weststigers management have made many good decisions and the appointment of the great salesman Taylor could go down as the most devastating call made!
Wake up it is all spin No Money ..Need 700 games to become a decent NRL player…the quality of the so called Junior Talent it is all spin people!!!! It has been the inability of quality leadership in the management area for over a decade that will drive the club to its first wooden spoon .
I do not take mediocrity lightly in fact I deplore it,what I see at the moment is a coach that was appointed on what he had to say rather than what he had achieved at coaching level.
If Taylor does lead the team to the wooden spoon he should be sacked after the last game no ifs no buts it is time that certain types took some responsibility for the slow decline to the BOTTOM of the heap WELL DONE!

My attention has gone from Taylor to the people who appointed him. They had to choose between some decent candidates, trouble was they lacked the real rugby league knowledge to make a rugby league decision. In the end they made what appeared to be the best business decision.

When the failure to re-appoint Potter is examined, many rightly pointed out that Potter got no chance to select the players for the NRL team and did not appoint his support staff. I wonder how much say Taylor had in the decisions made for this season. Simply, I cannot remember the timing of his appointment and the selection of players and staff. Does anyone have a better memory than me?
On another matter, it is disappointing there does not seem to be any progress on the location of the Club offices and training establishment.

Can anyone tell me just who is/are currently running the club in the following areas;

Decisions as to whether the club purchase any new players for 2016.
Decisions as to who decides which new players are to be signed for 2016.
Decisions as to which current players will be let go this year.

I am sure there are many supporters in the dark about these areas.

Hopefully whoever it is - they have a torch. LOL
 
I can cop winning the Spoon as long as I know that the players have had a real dig.
I know what it's like to play in a side that is coming stone last, it's not a good feeling!.
 
Well with a bye in hand and the thrashing that the Knights are getting at the moment we would be 15th even if the Raiders won by 1 point we would be coming 15th

It gets better when DCE chokes against the Titans we'll be up to 14th
 
The problem with the Raiders FT, is they have to keep it up for the full eighty. They have a tendency to run ahead early and then let their opposition catch up.

Btw how good is Austin going?

Mind you i'm wishing Moses all the best and hope he becomes the player everyone is hoping for .

I just don't think Moses is going to be the player the Club thinks his going to be SORRY!!!!

Can we do a swap, that sounds fair.
We could throw in JT as well, he would Qualify very well for a spin Doctor job on the side for Tony Abbott
And a set of steak knives

What battle?….......we are dead set certainties..no doubts whatsoever

I thought that recently and wouldn't be shocked if it happens, however the Knights and now the Titans are going to make us fight for it.
 
seeing as the knights are smashing the titans, that puts us dead last now

and seeing as we play 2 teams that we NEVE EVER beat and always lose by 30 + to, Broncos and roosters hello last place for at least another 2 weeks again!
