No answers from Brad.34 line breaks against us and he has no ideas.On another note,have a shave and dress like you mean business,not turning up to training.Looks like he is in off season already.No metres from our forwards tonight.

    • Very true. Worst coach in the comp. 

  • I really feel sorry for Brad. He looked absolutely smashed. 
    He is a hell of a nice bloke and didn't deserve this but I do believe that he knows that he's a dead man walking. 
    I would have loved to see him take us to a premiership. 

    • I would have felt the same way a few weeks back, but when he persisted with picking his son when he OBVIOUSLY wasn't good enough and there were clearly far better options available to him he lost me completely.

      He basically put nepotism and his ego before the team and club. I am 100% convinced that that started the rot that has become a shell of a football team.

      I reckon the only thing that will save him is the fact the team is in a bubble up in QLD. I reckon if they were in Sydney he would be "standing down" on Monday - which would absolutely be the right course of action, imo.

    • good comment FH. I think all of us are angry at how things have been developing for a long time and it was up to the club to address it with BA. We all were aware of the issues and at senior levels, nothing much appears to have been done.BA simply can,t work in this type of environment anymore.If he remains he is really opening himself and maybe his son to endure more of this pain. If he has any sense I think he should be honest with himself, the players, and supporters and say that was the best he can do and he can,t offer much more.. Be proud of what he kinda has achieved and fit in a role that is more comfortable where he can contribute at a different level.I think supporters have been patient in hoping BA could address things differently. Sadly for all it has not worked out

  • And Brad Arthur is a Defensive coach. Tonight was very embarrassing  and not just the scoreline.

    Our 1, 6, 7, and 9 were horrible. Offered nothing. And the rest of the players were just as bad 

    It's time BA is told he will not be coaching the Eels in 2022.

    • I feel from the way he bit back yesterday at captains run presser was showing he feels pressure, perhaps told him his job is not guarenteed? Doubt it but never know.

      • From listening to hid presser tonight,  he knows the louder 'noise' is coming. He said "...it's coming..."

        To his credit, he said he can deal with that and is not worried by it, saying "... That's footy..."

        He seemed to be more worried about his players feelings. 

    • I still reckon our board aren't strong enough to sack him. I am on a few FB forums, and someone made the point we may not have the money to pay him out anyway

      • If that is the case PP then they should get someone in  under assistant banner ASAP right now save a bit of frckn  face for the club! if BA arcs up too bloody well bad! Reserve coach anyone! there’s got to be someone they gotta have someone in mind by now surely.

        they should’ve saved him from himself last off season and forced it on him then
