| From listening to his.press conference the team talk for Saturday is pretty straightforward 'right boys, everything Rohan got you doing, do the opposite'.
He'll do for me, very uncomplicated in his messages I hope he can get a tune out of them soon.

| Hi comments on the defence are what some of were saying for ages and being shot down for pointing out. The passive defence was real, not some imaginary issue.

| Impressive press conference.
He's been here less than a week but he has dispatched Rohans philosophy of Rugby League to the bin. It maybe too late to save this season but at least we should be heading in the right direction. The squad does need strengthening but
i have wondered what they would be like with a decent coach, hopefully we may now find out.

| RS did lots of good stuff at Leeds by all accounts from people who actually know.
He made errors in recruitment and was asking the players to execute something they couldn’t.
BA sounds the real deal. Whether he can get the team to change in the time he has is the question. Many of the errors are down to individual play, not just in flinging it about.
I really hope Arthur can make a difference.

Yep. Also the touch n pass comments and earning the right to play were also interesting. You could see he thought they’d been badly coached

| The enthusiasm over Brad Arthur tells us how we’ve drifted away from the basics of the game, which allow any team to make best use of the players at their disposal. Brad has been in the country a very short time, and has done zero preparation regarding the team or the league.
He seems to be exactly what we need at the moment. He has got just the right amount of skin in the game. He will want to protect/enhance his reputation to get himself an NRL job. The best scenario from his point of view is to get the Rhinos playing demonstrably better, and get offered an NRL job. The club get a better performing team to help attract the best new coach.
None of us know how this will pan out. My guess is he will depart at the end of this season. There is a good balance between his needs and the clubs. Blease will get lots of feedback.

| Very interesting interview, like most Aussies I know he’s direct and honest about the state of the club and playing side. I liked the fact he wants to return to a style of rugby that we know works, he’s clearly despatched the RS game plan, and replaced it with the simple fundamentals of RL, run hard, win collisions, earn the right to throw the ball around when you’ve got field position.
We will improve under him, however long he’s here for.

| He seemed to go against every Rohan philosophy of rugby i.e. passive defence, soft rugby, touch and pass, earning the right to play etc.
He also mentioned how it was difficult to assess players on previous performances as they were essentially being asked to play another sport. See how these players perform when playing proper rugby before judging. I suspect some players will look much better when playing rugby the way it is meant to be played.
It's quite scary that everyone is simply relieved to have a coach who wants to do the basics rather than try take shortcuts etc.

Lots of good stuff ?. Smith has absolutely devasted us, no apologies for once again pointing out that he has set us back a few seasons with his hopeless signings. Obviously we have contractual obligations to them so it will be quite some time before we can offload them. Errors in recruitment has to be the biggest understatement of the year. The situation with Arthur whilst welcome is far from ideal, this is due entirely to Smiths incompetence. Arthur has at least given us a framework/format to work with, ironically it’s more or less what several of us have been advocating for months. Expecting a big aggressive performance in our next game. Failing that we are really up the creek without a paddle.
