F&*k Kearney

He is an unproven nobody without Bellamy or Bennett.

It is ludicrous to change our coach who has finally been able to recruit and mold the team he wants.

10 months ago Ando was our hero. Where is the loyalty and respect? Is this how the team I support treat their people???

We have a bad year and some of it was because of the admin (Osbourne & Spagnolo) incompetence as well.

  • If Ando fails next year, then its fair game for 2012.

    Ando should be allowed to follow thru his plans.
  • Sinbad,

    U got no idea.
  • Had 2010 been Ando's last year, then fair enough, give him the sack.
    The fact that he still has a year left on his contract, not to mention the fact that he has been given free reigns to put together a club of his choice, thus selling the players he doesn't want here, what's the point of sacking him when he's put in the hard yards already.

    What if the new coach comes in, doesn't agree with what he has done, and gets rid of more players, or signs players we don't need?
  • Let's separate the decision to axe Ando and the decision to hire Kearney (assuming its true).

    I've stated on a number occasions that if we are going to get a new coach Kearney is the man.

    He has been 2IC at the most well-drilled, professional, disciplined club for the past 5+ years. He has won a World Cup.

    No he has not been a head coach, but every coach is at that point in their career at some time. And new coaches have a pretty good track record in the NRL.

    He is a hire that plays to our strength, which is our massive base of junior Polynesian players.

    So let's not cut down the bloke because your not happy about the decision to appoint someone else.
  • Listen 1Eyed Eel dont't go and spoil a good rant with your clear objective input..OK.
  • These days it is a business and ando is the director (of sorts) and if that business fails then the director gets the boot, unfortunately thats the way of the times and even though we dont like it we have to live with it, dont care who coachs next year will be happy either way when the 2011 premiership comes to the eels...
  • i hear kearney reads this site alot he might be offended by the title.
  • I actually think ando's position as coach is more about politics than merit.

    How can a coach who exceeded everybody's expectations last year to make a GF suddenly be a considered inferior to an unproven rookie who is been given these enormous wraps based on his association with Bellamy and his cultural heritage.

    I disagree with you 1eyed on this. Ando has instilled the mongrel in the team we lacked under hagan and he needs to be given the opportunity to execute his 3year plan.
  • Don't care jpav. I don't want him here.
  • its all about politics, they (board) dont want him, so the players give up on coach as well?
