Its time for a new coach?
Considering there is nothing in both attack and defence along with the moronic choices of players in certain positions I doubt there is any dispute that the "better now than later" approach needs to implemented.
There is just too much evidence to show Pay struggles at an NRL head coach level. Ridiculous recruitment and retention such as releasing Bergamin for Crighton. Opting for Meaney over many other when we are in real need of a actual NRL level FB. Grabbing one of the best right edge backrowers coming through and turning him into a middle forward.
In regards to structures and positional decisions, where do I start? How do you enter the NRL season without a centre, then make that decision even worse by putting someone there who is exactly NOT what a centre is. Why do you have one of your best line runners in ISP and the other on the bench?? Why do you think it is a good idea to put two players that have been injured for the last yr and had no game time ( Foran, RFM ) next to each other? Why move Jackson and Holland to the left edge when they were our right edge last yr?? Why not move Jacko to the middle as HE IS THE BEST LOCK AT THE CLUB and our middle needs more! What the fcuk is going on with our bench?
How about TODAY! 30-10 down and after the middle is opened like a can of tuna, Pay still has Lichaa on the bench?! LMAO!
Yes the guy has done well to set up a culture and is probably good with players but his not NRL level. Way out of his depth and we are in the deep end!
