I have no confidence that the administration has the wherewithal to guide the Eels through the coming dark times without significant collateral damage to the club. Large defeats are in the offering. Player discontent could arise with the demise of Chris Sandow. Some signings could be in jeopardy-- even those already signed?!
During the Foran mess no one arose from the mob to suggest that he was the man to solve things. The remainder of 2015 season is shaping up as being fraught with difficulties. Who will guide the Eels through the dark times?

We fixed the Foran issue (not that it should have happened).
The adinistration can't solve an injury crisis in round 20. It is what it is.
Large defeats? That's something we have stopped...
I know you are a glass empty kind of guy but this blog is BS.
With the cap being worked out, rep players signing, others signing on 1yr deals and no overs, how can you say all this?
Mate either you are still catching up or you have your eyes closed, yeah this yr suspensions and injuries have killed us. But if you can't see clearing skies ahead, you must be still on the Roy bus heading the other way.
haha spilt my coffee chuckling at that phil haha
Gee Robert you might be right but who shot your unicorn earlier this year? You have been very negative in almost any blog you have written this year so just buy another unicorn will you and cheer up! An animal is good for you as they lower your blood pressure.
And Camo we will not make top 8 next year unless we can improve our roster and except for Foran I don't think we have. Gee who is negative now!
I see the problem as being we do not plan for a future. All the signings (bar one) have been stop gap measures. Theres no long term benefit in signing players who come here for their pension. They now have an opportunity to build a team around Foran, and that may mean mass clean outs. The majority of the team are no better than fringe first graders.
The test that I use is simple. How many of the FG team would get a run in other FG teams. I would say about three. And there lies the problem. I know 5 year plans are not popular, but we really need a 5 year plan.
