    • "Our premiership window has never really been open", 

      100% on the mark when he also says " I don't believe Parra have ever had the roster to seriously compete for a title".

      • He is 100% correct on all points. Just look at the state of origin representation of the top four clubs, a prime example. I don't think BA is the answer as a coach, but we've never been true contenders under his reign with the rosters.

        • Yeah but Kent is acting like if it wasn't for Arthur we would be worse, which can be fair to say but each of the 30 players in this squad he has chosen or at least agreed in bringing in, get this year's canterbury team to top 8 now that will be overachieving for example. So yes Carl, Kent was correct on all points bar saying Arthur has overachieved, pretty much blames the players though BA is who brought them in or had a say in bringing them in, buck stops with him to some extent.

          • I think BA has done a good job with the players at his disposal, however he will never be able to attract the top class players like a Bellamy, Bennett, or Robinson, hence will never win a premiership although would be so happy to be proven wrong. 

            • Oh definately Carl, i am more than happy to be made a fool and him win us a title, who's to say Bellamy or Bennett or Robinson couldn't win a title with this 30? never know.
