What happens If BA Stays?

We all seem to have it as a forgone conclusion that BA won't be here next year but what if he's stays?

Worse what if he gets a new contract?

Me personally I will give up my membership in 20 years I've never considered that but the idea of driving down to Sydney each weekend knowing that we will fizzle into nothing again.

What direction do we think the club will go with him in charge? I really can't see any positive outcomes

  • Only thing we can do is hope change assistants and hope for the best.

     

    if i survived two straight wooden spoons I can survive this.

  • If he stays I probably won't be renewing my season tickets.

    I'm feeling pretty let down by the team right now. They need to show some spirit, some heart, and some fight. Wake up boys. Do you want to be known as chokers and failures for the rest of your lives? It's time to show some fight!

  • He can't possibly stay, his position is untenable,  surely the board see that and have no option but to take action or else they will be the ones in the firing line. 

    • The question is HKF when do they take action? If we get pumped by Manly next week  what is the point of keeping him on till seasons end? He is out of ideas. IMO lost the dressing room too. 

      We will limp into the finals, with a chance of losing the last 7 regular season games in a row. Imagine team morale.

      This is where BA has strategically positioned himself, where there is no ready made replacement on the coaching staff to fill in as interim.

      I think the club should have a 1eyedeel lottery draw and the winner gets to take the reigns for the rest of the year! Can you imagine some of the candidates! I would pay to see Brissyeel or Brett Alan in the post game  presser! It would go for 3 hours. 

  • Easy answer.  More of the same!

  • Even if he stays, I can't see how it can be beyond '22. The premiership window is now closed so might as well exit him now and rebuild again.  

  • We have absolutely nothing to gain by sacking him before the season ends. An interim coach won't get us very far and even if we did perk up and play better, it would just muddy the waters with calls for the interim coach to stay.

    Also, BA deserves to stay until the end of the season. If they do inform him that this is the last year, then it's up to him whether he stays or goes. If he goes Ryan Carr comes in as an interim but it will be on BAs terms. 

    • I disagree wholeheartedly Fathead.

      We are in the finals, we have the cattle to give premiership a shake already and with new ideas, new energy and a new set of eyes looking at the issues at hand plus the players trying to impress the new coach maybe we can do some damage in the finals.

      There is everything to be gained by sacking him first thing Monday morning. Don't kill the cow by slowly stabbing it making it bleed all over the place. Just chop its head off immediately and deal with the consequences.

    • Although I do want opinion on this, if in an odd world he was sacked today, Who would Be interim? I thought it would be Kidwell but could be wrong.

      • I would say it would be the Reserve grade coach Ryan Carr
