Time for changes?

Wont be player changes if you look how our reserve grade is going, lapped by 40 tonight by a good looking raiders side. Will the coach make changes? What changes can he make? Dunster for anyone for a start. He just doesnt look confident out there. Ill say, like probably most we look a better side out there with hands at dummy half. Maybe we need mattos experience starting as well?

  • The effort is still there but the polish isn't along with a injury toll and very poor Recuitment/loss of players. 
    dunster needs to go back to NSW cup and paulo needs to pull his finger out 

  • The quick service is what we need. Hodgson is too slow, you could see the tempo change as soon as Hands was delivering that quick service. Dunster is just useless out there, having no impact on the game. 

  • It starts with the coach mate.

  • How the hell is Paulo in origin contention. Soft as butter -  and Sivo looks lost and disinterested..

    • Paulo's been average for a while. It was covered over in the past because of our win rate. Now that we're losing his poor performance is being exposed. Greig outplayed him last night. 

  • Unless you bring in a gun coach like a Bennett, Bellamy etc then changing the coach will only add more pain for more years. BA is as good as any up and coming coach will be and he is still a good coach. Just making quick changes does not work and we tried that for years. 

    • But yes Dunsta must go. Is Ba watching something different to us

    • This is the thing, the emotional part of me says fuck him off and bring in a coach that'll clean out some deadwood. A real nut kicker , maybe a Hasler or fuck I don't even know . Probably only Haslers available.  

      The brains side of me says m remember the pain after we punted B Smith because not winning premierships just ain't good enough,  is just being competitive most years enough ? Until a real proven winning coach or that magic crop of players become a reality ? 

      We settle for players that aren't winners, fuck this joint will tell you our players are the best in their positions even though most of them could not make a rep side if their mum was the coach. But they'll demand we punt the coach because he's not up to our standards.  I think I'm happy with just not being the joke of the comp every year. ( only every few years these days ). 

      On another negitive note whilst we are talking about how useless our coach and R&R team are , We've signed Dylan Brown for 8 years lol. Faaaaark.  

    • Good point and true enough. However, he has been there for a loooong time. He says the same things week in, week out. Players must get tired of hearing it.

      I like Brad for a lot of reasons, but compared to other coaches he usually doesn't have anything insightful to say - at least not publicly. I can't recall him ever offering anything intelligent regarding tactics, and his strategic mantras of collision and effort amount to a simplistic, "just try harder, boys!"

       

  • Mate, We have just had some bad luck this season..... Thats Footy
