Smith changes the club's structure

[Guest]

The defence is structured, and good.

The attack is taking longer, ...injuries, dumb passes, dropped ball, seemingly-iased refereeing, [7-penalties against us first half V Cronulla and 6-1 against first half+ V Cowboys]... and rookies everywhere.
Maubs was one of our best attacking players last year.

7-1 penalties against first half.
6-1 penalties against first half+.

We're basically being refereed out of the matches.

Maybe it's about time the club gave the NRL and its officials a HUGE spray, counting out the fine money onto the media conference table as they go.

Or maybe they can pay more attention to the type of stupid penalties we are giving away. I am not talking about the 50-50s but stuff like getting off the player when tackling.

The defense structure is OK, but what I have seen this year the line speed is rubbish.

Sandor Earl is complete shite, let him play park footy.

Our oppositions take an eternity to get off our players, and are rarely penalised.
They break nearly every other rule in the book and get away with it.
The 50-50's 'always' go against, us.
That must be the rule.

Hey Fred68 I have a question and I am really interested to hear your opinion on this.

Do you think the club should sack Coach Smith?

I would sack him immediately if I was in charge.

Well done player 1. No berley required.

And replace him with who?

Give Daniel Anderson a 1 or 2yr deal (interim solution). Go hard for Ivan Cleary's services in 2013/2014.

What exactly has Ivan Cleary achieved as a coach?

[bondi-boy]

What has Daniel Anderson achieved as a coach...an NRL premiership?

[theGman]

What exactly has Ivan Cleary achieved as a coach?

He's highly regarded and respected by his players & officials. Cool temperament.
Warriors have regularly played semis under him.

Bondi-Boy and R'Mania, if you had to nominate a replacement coach who would it be?

[Spanner in the works]

What has Daniel Anderson achieved as a coach...an NRL premiership?

He's a two time NRL Grand Finalist, Super League Grand Final winner, three time Challenge Cup winner and a World Club Challenge winner (against a Bennett coached Broncos). That is an outstanding pedigree.


This is my ideal coaching group in about 3 years time:
Head Coach: Daniel Anderson
Assistant Coach: Brian Noble
Defensive Coach: Gillmeister and/or Dean Pay
Offensive Coach: Lam
Strength and Conditioning Coach: Cunningham
High Performance Manager: Fitzgibbon

[Cockadoodledoo]

My ideal coaching group in 3 years time

Head Coach: Craig Bellamy
the rest: who cares, I would go with Bellamy's judgement.

I'd rather Smith not be sacked after half a season of mediocrity.
