        • Don't give simple Simon perspective like that his vision doesn't see past the end of the light at the end of the tunnel shit I might be being generous chiefs probably ends 2's in front of his face.

          JR isn't doing this by himself it's like saying it's all Bellamy in Melbourne when it isn't even though he is important.

      • Reality hurts aye chief the reality of how big this is and the incremental steps it's going to take to get the club back to success.

        Not the pathetic jock sniffing one man will fix this narrative your holding onto.

  • he did say in the interview focus on locing up juniors and some re-signings so sounds like we are about to get some recruitment news. I uess it is rumoured about ryley extension but maybe a few others too? 

     

    Interesitng reponse on the talyn situation, didnt really answer. with news of Luai being out tonight and api going to 7 and talyn starting we will all see what he has as a starting 9! 

  • Interesting stat that we only won 7 games last year and we're at 5 for this season. Will be interesting to see how we go for the last third of the season. On average a rookie coach tends to only add one more win compared to the season before their arrival.

  • Ryles needs some firepower to help him. The way he's talking he's essentially rebuilding the entire club from the ground up. It's a mammoth task and it can't be all down to the head coach. I applaud his ambition and I really love the core of what he wants to achieve. I hope he gets some assistance. 

    • If he gets the right help from the right people he will be the coach that breaks our premiership drought.  It's a big call but i really like what he has done so far as a rookie head coach, he has made some big calls on moving on from a big chunk of our core experienced players, he hasn't been afraid to inject young inexperienced players into first grade and most have shown improvement along the way, he has introduced a new defensive structure which is working way better than the previous ( still more improvement to come), he has introduced an attacking style no other team is using which will only improve with better execution and improved focus as the team gains more experience. 

      He still has plenty of room for improvement and isn't the full package yet but for a rookie coach with without a doubt the weakest roster in the comp and mostly missing our best player for all but a few games he has done quite the job to date.

  • status quo geez ....the talent pool is shallow enough as it is and we have till the end of the year really to get some quality esp in the centres and middle.

    We wait and the Bears and PNG will take what little quality there is ....

    than again doesnt that imbecile MON have all the answers ..........what an impending cluster fuck

    • Juniors are he way out we know expansions coming and the elite talent for the most part is locked up.I think JR and the club realise this.Its now on the club behind the scenes to get this right and provide that support JR needs.

  • The key for the juniors is still to stockpile it's no different to recruitment identify and project.We just have to make the right calls on who we keep.Getting it right more so than wrong.We will lose juniors there's no way around it.

    The projection of what talent can be is the science.Theres definitely character traits that help that projection though.

    brissyeel with the first question?
