My 13yr old son could of coached that broncos side to the finals 4yrs in a row, the other 3yrs at the panthers was Guss coaching and Grifffin as the face and fall guy.
Cmon mate you can't be serious? So Griffin did nothing at those clubs? I find it hard to believe.
Out of curiosity who would you have coach us?
Disagree with this. We need a coach who can come in and instil a plan and strategy for the team, so they know what play is next. Toovey may be that, however a coach who only screams and throws tantrums without solid game plans is not going to help us.
They can do both, Example Bellamy. Solid game plans but lets them know when they're playing crap.

As most of you seen tonight, with 20 to go, the 13 players on the field didnt even attempt to be creative.
If you think its the coach thats killing our side well its a good thing none of you are nrl coaches.
The players are being...
dumb, lazy, selfish.
Im kinda seeing Klemmer as a Gallen tbh.
Takes 20 hit ups a game and take 27 seconds to play the ball which isnt a good thing.
Ponga is killing our attack as his only good for 1 side and 3 plays.
Levi is selfish and dumb.
Sione is a bystander most weeks.
Pearce is trying hard but has no real options or time to be dominant.
This is affecting the whole team.

why are they offering nothing other than one out rubbish with 10 to go and 4 points behind?
It's either the coach's ****house plan, or the players that he recruited are ignoring him. In either case don't see much of a future.

NATHAN BROWN.
if Wests let him go?? Toovey.
Though Toovey is a same same as Brown imo, just Toovey cant control his blood pressure so the public see his outrage, i personally think thats a bad look for the person in charge of a group of young men to mentor.
Works for Bellamy though.
mozza
Game on broheim
Bellamy’s players respect him though.

You have NO IDEA what works for Bellamy.
A guy called Cam Smith is the reason that system and side are so brilliant.
But hey call for the coaches head, just remember a new coach means a reboot and another bunch of worthless yrs.
P.S if Bellamy is so greatwhy did he fail at SOO??? Maybe the 4 players in the QLD side that run his club

They respect him because he doesn't accept mediocrity and pushes his players to what they didn't think they could achieve.
He isn't afraid to make changes where required. We need a coach that the players want to play for, with Brown it just doesn't look like they do.
If ponga isnt carrying an injury, he is as soft as they come when returning the ball. Every kick return for weeks now he would rather throw a 30m speculator to skd than have a crack. I know one of skds best points is his fearless kick returns, but a fullback should relish the opportunity to run at a broken defensive line. Looks to me that he wants to be a 5/8 tbh. The only time he wants to attack is close to the line with players running off him.
When Barnett scored his first try as he was on the way to the ground he was hit across the jaw. Why wasn't it a possible 8 point try ? When Moses put the kick through that Ponga fielded then raced up field only to knock on in the play the ball why wasn't Moses penalised for hitting Fitzy flush on the melon as he took off to support Ponga ?

Ponga has been doing that since.... for ever.....
Seems like you have the inside knowledge for quite a few NRL teams. First it was Griffin that wasn't coaching the Panthers and now the storms success is NOT from Bellamy but because of Cam Smith.
Turn it up mate c'mon....
Happy for Brown to have until 6 or so weeks in the new year but after that his time is up.
And Bellamy coaching SOO has absolutely no relevance to club footy. Coaching a 6 week period with a new team doesn't compare to having players for a pre season and then entire season. **** weak argument.
At the moment I think our players are not only not respecting their coach, but they are not showing the jersey, and the Knights fans any respect. I want them to be filthy after a loss. Their season is over now after tonight and most of them look like they couldn't care less.I wish it was like the old days of the real NRL, so much for a win, not much for a loss, then maybe we'd see some effort. Maybe they all need to be on a contract like their coach, performance based, play sh**, don't get payed. Then we'd see some effort.
