Message: [QUOTE="Thelmus, post: 3141151, member: 8988"] The thing is, even with the thrashings, the looming wooden spoon, the player in-fighting, the board says there is a bigger plan. What plan expects these kind of results? Sure, if we had lost our spine and entire front row, there might be a case for these series of losses. But even then, you would expect them to be competitive. We have largely the same core on the field week to week and we lost to a team without their best player, and whom lost 1 of their halves in the first 20 minutes. By any stretch of the imagination they were right for the picking. What did we do? Despite having a largely intact side, with a decent platform set in the opening twenty, we managed to fumble our way to defeat. By any stretch of the imagination, you could not have found a better reason to keep an experienced player like Luke on the field. Instead we decided to use a primarily attacking play we like dearden to plug gaps on the line. If we need to score quickly, sure it makes sense but then why remove the most experienced bloke on the field for him. The bloke in the best form, and the bloke most capable of rallying those around him for a rookie half still working his way into the team. Of course, there are a million reasons to get rid of this coach, but I have never seen such open chaos affect this team like this. The team lists look like deck chair appointments on an iceberg hit titanic, with whoever gets selected finding a new low point in their form and surrounded by a complete rabble who have no idea what to do after tackle 3. A rabble that thinks defence is an individual effort and communication is something you do after you bugger up. [/QUOTE]
