Far too early to be asking for Robbo's head IMO.
Towards the backend of last year, we got on a bit of a roll and were putting most teams away. Let's hope we can rediscover that form and give ourselves a chance.
Is there anyone better than Robbo out there? Can't really see it myself although Cleary must have a good chance for the 3 peat and be the first since big Jack which is no mean feat.
Personally, I think I would prefer Fitzy over Cronk as a coach although maybe as a team, they could cover all the bases. During '18 and '19 a few of us said to enjoy the moment because the purple patches don't go on forever.
Maybe if anything Robbo needs to evaluate what needs changing and then have the balls to make those changes. Uncle Nick said he sees Robbo as an 'alex ferguson' type. Ferguson was ruthless and over his reign could change a team quickly and successfully. Let's see if Robbo can do the same if this season fails.
p.s. Just reading my post back and we already proved we could be ruthless punting Pearce to bring in Cronk with great success, so if we fail this season, have faith that the brains trust can come up with a solution.Last edited by chicka; 04-15-2023, 12:17 AM.

The ruthless decision on Pearce was over 5 years ago. Have we seen once since?

Right now I don’t think either would be any more effective in the shapes and plays we are running.

Would be really weird to see but Wayne Bennett is giving up the Dolphins gig in 2025, he'd be 75 but he'd be a great coach at the Roosters I think.

He’s got to be allowed more opportunity to play his natural game though. Whatever/whoever they’re trying to turn him into isn’t working yet.
