Next 5..... Next move?

Next 5 Games-

Brisbane Broncos (A)

Newcastle Knights (H)

North Queensland Cowboys (H)

Souths Sydney Rabbitohs (H)

St George Illawarra Dragons (A)

Next move Bernie and co?

How many wins/losses are needed in the next 5 weeks to save or give reason to sack Arthur?

I say anything less than 3 wins is unacceptable and MUST force Bernie's hand.

On lasts nights performance I am not confident of winning any of those games TBH, possibly Newcastle but said with zero conviction.

Just imagine the above scenario- Played 16: Won 2: Lost: 14.

With so many players off contract at seasons end, plenty of room in the salary cap and time to recruit for 2019, now is time to be ruthless & pull the trigger Bernie.

Install Kidwell as interim coach for the remainder of the year (It is over, and he couldn't do any worse) and under no circumstance is any player to be signed or resigned until the new coach is appointed. 

We are currently in the exact same position the Tigers were in last year before they appointed Ivan Cleary. There is enough time to turn things around before we run onto our new stadium.

Bernie, this season is done and dusted and the club needs a massive clean-out, including the coaching staff. It is completely unacceptable and an insult to us suffering fans if you allow this current mob to stumble through the rest of the season with a win here and there and think that is good enough.

  • Definitely not kidwell mate the blokes a dope who would let the hey cuz culture bloom even more, he needs to be fucked off along with Cayless from wenty.

    I think weve had an easy early half draw to the season, we are about to be destroyed.

    Brad should be sacked or resign tomorrow, the dope wont even start planning for next year on the park.

    • If not Kidwell, then who mate?..... we have no one outside of him remotely capable in our ranks to take the reins. Maybe his son? He was next to dad in the coaches box last week.

    • Offer Luke Burt the interim head coach role and see how he fares? Already has a great rapport and history with the existing squad.
    • Correct

    • 2 wins in the last 13 games.

      I would say that is rock bottom, or would you prefer Arthur to continue on his clueless path for the remainder of the year? Yeah.... that makes sense.

  • Cowboys pretty much in the same boat.

    • YEP Agree Cleary would have been perfect if we had only known ..

    • If BA gets sacked he will need a payout and that will run Max's plans of being able to say he fixed the eels finances even though we have have no financial problems. BA won't be sacked .

  • Totally agree Bert except for the appointment of either Kidwell or Cayless as interim coaches. 

    • Who then mate? We have no one at the club at present.

      Bring in an outside interim coach but who?
