You’re wrong, Kev and his mates are stuck in the 90’s. None of them have a clue on how the game has modernised. Sure some of the older values will always hold true but there’s far more to running a professional NRL squad nowadays then ‘standing by your mate’ and doing fast runs up hills.
With you mate, the old boys club do not care about how the club is going, they themselves are in it for an earn and to ensure their mates can get some like some sort of syndicate.
Stfu and read the news webby.
For mine you just encapsulated why Kevin has failed as a coach here. He has the talent (showcased last year) to form a top 4 squad but is incompetent as a coach to channel it in a professional way.
Every side that finished in the top 4 this year had injuries to key players and contributed...
Short answer : Yes with a why
Long answer : No with a but.
Yes because I can’t see his coaching influence having actually improved the teams performance. Just feels our talent has improved and raised the stakes of risk vs reward even moreso.
No because if we are being honest there’s no...
It’s a romantic storyline to have an old club legend coach his club to a premiership but as they say love is the death of duty - true words in the professional era.
No idea if Kevin’s a decent coach, all I know is that the on field product is getting worse by the week.
That seems to go hand in hand with the fact that he has assembled a mismatch of talented players and just hopes that talent carries them to win each week. Compare that to the consistent...
Feel like his is a story we've seen plenty of times, over exaggerated talent by media and easily led fans.
Best thing for the club would be to move on from him and replace him with another solid, affordable centre.
Should he go onto the Dolphins or Titans and and absolutely kill it then so be...
Two glaring issues with that.
Right now Walsh's greatest attribute is his speed which is best utilized in space, put him in the halfback role and he loses that. His decision making and inexperience is also far less punishing on us as a team from the fullback role. In a few years when he's 150+...
We went to the captains run yesterday & it is true that the session looked quite chill, trainers and the boys looked like they were having some fun. Plenty of dropped balls in the drills which we all got a good laugh out of.
Players spent a lot of time with all the fans which was really good...
This 100%.
It feels like KW & his staff have nothing else but the sweep play out the back to Walsh.
We can’t go a day without being told how much talent we have In our side by supposed experts and Kevin’s mates in the media yet he doesn’t appear to have made much use of it this year.
Next year he will be on thin ice and the fans will be waiting with knives when it breaks.
I think the on field product speaks for itself. A better coach could get far more success out of this roster than KW.
He believes he's done the right thing by filling the squad with as much talent as he...
He’s in his 4th year of NRL, played at origin & test level as well as a Grand Final.
This narrative of him needing mid season siesta’s needs to end.
Next year, assuming he’s still with us maybe he opts out of the Origin series and the $30,000 pay packet that comes with it. Few more early bed...
