You can’t have both longbottom & coward on together, you can hide one, not two from being cleaned out.

NO ONE ever goes into contact totally upright. Its not like he dipped and had his head at 1/2 his height. your head doesn’t snap forward initially, the hint is in the name whiplash…… This is the new normal, get used to it. there’s definitely an argument, it wasn’t clear about direct...

There’s one angle that looks like his shoulder gets him flush on the jaw. Although, if that was the case, old mate should have been out cold. im pretty confident that 9/10 like that are red these days.

Me either. i checked the time stamp of my post. 9 hours after our lunch had started. so much for dry July……

Huh? FFS he’s not the issue. playing him 5 minutes more, or 5 minutes less is window dressing. they have sent down a squad with 4 starters in their last serious test. and we struggle to compete with them. This should be a serious wake up call.

You would just be paying $15k to kids that would be doing it anyway

30 years ago, with a leather ball. kick it out, win the line out drop a field goal would have been the automatic response. it’s not even on the table anymore. what’s changed that made a no brainer, into a no go?

Not getting our arses handed to us. if we are in the fight every week, the results will look after themselves. if we win 3 but get flogged in most of our losses, it’s a fail to me. if we win 3, but we are right in the game for 90% of the rest of the games, that’s an absolutely a better...

Jeez, if you couldn’t improve this squad with an extra 20%, you should get a new career. I feel we’ll be having this conversation on this site up to the time they let him go. I’m adamant, he was a poor choice. time will tell.

With the same squad it might. the new guy gets to spend an extra 20% on players next year, and has a stack of young players starting the year a lot more experienced. i have no doubt had the temporary coaches been retained, they would have won a handful of games next year with a 20% larger...

I have zero expectations. there are many reasons why we were winless. Had the temporary coach had access to a few experienced players, they, undoubtedly have won a couple of those games. I’m suggesting, that if a coach comes in with a full pre season, has the funds to recruit said players, and...

Clearly. and blind Freddy knows exactly that’s what he’s going to do. but, as I said , if that results in a handful of wins. that’s not a success.

Success is being one of the strongest Oz franchises. success is not taking a shell of a squad, adding a stack of experienced players and winning a handful of games. Edit: the latter might be an acceptable milestone next year, on the way to being successful.

given the underspend this year, improvement is a given. but that low bar is a long way from success.

You think he can recruit his way to success at this level? good luck with that

Coleman needs to build strength by improving the cattle he’s got, rather than just getting better cattle. that’s a whole new ball game. I think they should start scheduling Tahs games as curtain raisers for SS. Or they’ll be playing in front of family and girlfriends before this guy is...

Oh the irony. stannies complaining about home town refs:)

In case you have forgotten 40-14;)

No SS clubs south of Uni, or west of uni...... These 7 clubs need to be saved from themselves. most of the 7 wouldn’t have met the minimum requirements they are suggesting, in the not too distant past.

She was a great player. my reading was she retired after being told she wouldn’t make it on the plane? which bodes well for the depth in the squad.
