Some people feel 3 weeks constutes "long term success",but Im sort of thinking 4 years is a more accurate reflection of "long term"…like the 4 years beween 06 & 09
Those same 4 years where Sheens blatant mistakes & bloody-mindedness were transparent to all but himself,& totally explained his poor long term coaching record as has been well chronicled by Bug
2 from 3 in the circumstances is a great start to this year on top of an outstanding finish to last year,but with the injury toll situation as it is the luckiest coach to have a job in the NRL now has an automatic out clause so that regardless of how we perform for the remainder of this year , were gonna get stuck with him for another 2-3 years .
Just not sure where half a dozen games after 4 and a half seasons of rubbish warrant such a reward
Some poor old Wests & Balmain supporters who consider anything other than finishing with the wooden spoon as being a successful season ,need to raise their expecations..its a reasonably level playing field these days,the coaches call most of the shots,& are & should be accountable everywhere else ..just ask Stuart,Fittler,Taylor,Elliot ,Lang.Henjack et al.
But dont ask our messiah
Oh,& if were still wanting to reward him for 05,give him a blazer,but not another long term coaching :unamused: gig
