Sorry for the added posts but this irritated me. I understand Football is not be all and end all, it is normal and healthy for coaches and players in win, lose or draw to unwind after to get mind off things and have a laugh.
But why do i see on the thumbnail of the press conference and the start of the presser Gutho and BA smiling from ear to ear? yes perhaps something was funny but i tell you now if i was any of them not matter if we lost by 1 or 100 i would not be smiling i would be shattered, especially if we won i would be hard on the performance. Probably nit picking and told to get a grip but it rubbed me the wrong way. Straight after that performance and a last minute loss, you should be down and honestly annoyed.
If you played it on mute and read their body language of both of them you think we won. Look at Ricky (Granted they got slaughtered) he was shattered, Todd Payten looks serious. Yes have some fun if it eases you, but not straight after a loss and poor performance.
Anyway, quickly will add points he said.
* Not upset with last phase of the game, upset with first 40
* Admitted we were handled physically in first 40, were brave in second half and effort was there (thank god he said that, nothing like a catch phrase).
* We were too lateral to start, right ok wonderful insight.
* Very quick presser, perhaps getting out before they ask about Jakob Lol.

BA is the biggest imbecile in history at pressers, they do this shit all the time.
Why would they care on their close to 1m salaries? at the end of the day theres too many losers at the club, not enough smart and hungry winners.
BAs reached his limit here, weve been stale for years, stagnating at that level behind the best.
We need somebody to take it to the next level..

Fano for a start but we should have poached a quality coach years ago, you cant just wait till the year your coaches gigs up and hope for the best.
This team needed a Bennett, doubt he would ever of came to Parramatta more so due to us not wanting to give 100% control to a coach, they love BA as he let's things slide from time to time.
But this squad with Bennett imagine it.
Look at Jake Trbojevic, after a loss he is shattered and makes sure the rest of the team knows it. BA should not be smiling if he is taking their performances serious unless he is looking at a slower start then ramping it up later as a different approach

Other than Ryan Matterson from his time at the roosters, I can't think of a single player in our squad who has any association with sustained success at first grade level. You are spot on, this is a huge problem.
Another reason why we should have signed JAC.
Not only is he one of the best wingers in the game with pure speed, he has been a part of a very successful team for a sustained period.
Instead we signed a bog average winger from a club that is as bad as we are.
We have also signed a damaged over the hill hooker from that same dud club for next season to replace our top 3 hooker.
Poor signings, poor retention and poor staffing decisions.
Our board has taken us a long way but maybe there needs to be changes at that level to.
Sign bargain basement players and you generally get bargain basement players. RCG and Paps are the two exceptions. We however, pay overs for players based on "potential" that we rarely see. It is madness!
Disgraceful I thought! He has no idea or is just blatantly arrogant
