"It's even more alarming if there is no unrest, it means no-one gives a fuck and these insipid performances are acceptable. "
"Someone brought up on TCT that the players are playing as if they want a new coach, they may want Bennett. The commentor didn't knock BA that much and was on his side saying he hopes he can turn it around. Sixties mentioned in his reply simply…"

"We are also depleted and teams have been taking advantage of that lol. Reynolds usually tortures us so glad he's not playing 🤣"

"Walsh/Staggs to burn Harper for speed 5 times"
"Would need a good whistle and Dylan Brown to have a huge game I'd say to have any shot."
"We will still get beaten very easily. "
"We lose by 30. Mam, Walsh and Walter's will have a field day. Cobbo up against Harper, help me god. The broncos pack have fight, our back row are spineless "
"Reynolds is a big loss just like Moses but broncos still have the players to step up just look at their backline1.walsh 2.oates 3.staggs 4.cobbo 5.mariner compared to ours 1.blaze 2.sivo 3.penisini 4.harper 5.simmonson cobbo is going to give us …"
"Yeah don't really have much confidence in parra playing a full 80 minutes, that's the main issue. They play well in patches but that's not enough in nrl."
"Oates is supposed to replace Arthur's but is also carrying an injury and no guarantee to play.
Dolphins still flogged us with half their team out so doesn't really fill you with too much confidence "

Danny Weidler
How come whenever we see Danny Weidler on the news interviewing players, he has to have his big boof head front and centre of the shot. It's almost as if he is the star - has he ever played league....it just annoys me.

So while i lay around not feeling well on a cold and wet Sunday, i thought if not Bennett than who would be the right person to take us forward? Many would say "Anyone" and that would be a very reactionary decision based on the hatred of the current…
