Re: Coaching issues

I also don't think attributing 'good' attack years (points scored) to Ricky's good coaching is entirely objective either. Looks how we scored most of those points - was it structured attack based on a targetted game plan to exploit opposition weaknesses, or lucky crash-ball plays coupled with sheer...

Re: Coaching issues

Which players have gone backwards since joining the raiders? That's the way you judge coaches/the impact of anything. Take a snapshot before, baseline. Then measure the improvement, the affect. Let's be reasonable here. Ricky haters, tell us, who's gone backwards? I'm not a "Ricky hater",...

Re: A new Canberra Stadium

Taxpayers are actually the people who pay! So asking them how much they’d like to see spent on a stadium is pretty relevant. They’re Commonwealth and Territory voters and taxpayers as well. Recently we’ve helped pay for a stadium in Townsville and about to fork out for one in Hobart. Maybe this jur...

Re: Coaching issues

It's absolutely ludicrous that people keep trying to paint our issues in attack over the last 10 years as merely personnel problems rather than inherently bad coaching and systems. CNK is the prime example of this, there's really not much else to be said that hasn't been said already. There's also ...

Re: Coaching issues

What is this ideal 'attacking structure' that everyone is referring to? I think many people confuse a backline that plays with depth as some sort of magical attacking structure. That's can be effective if you have elite speed on both sides of the field, but not so much if your centres are powerful ...

To some extent, which brings me to my one criticism over the dummy half selection and interchange issues.

Re: Coaching issues

Other than the Levi/Starling situation, Stuart is nailing his job this season IMO.

He's keeping a cool head and allowing his young players to come in with quite a simple game plan.

While we have no real control here, Fog's injury now means the Eels would be simply blocking Sanders' NRL pathway if they held onto him. It would be interesting to know who Sanders' manager is.

I thought Sasagi did an admirable job, but that right hand side in defence was all over the shop and Timoko suffered for it.

An eminently forgettable game.

Really tough game. Proud of that second half effort.
