Do advertise, but not the next in line. I'd wait for the right one.

You did indeed say all that early on.

I'm not sure I understood your next step idea. I wasn't trying to discredit anything, just pointing out that the DoR needs to be a quality appointment as well

Doesn't that go against what you said two posts higher?

Coach recommends, board or specifically DoR decides if resources are available.
There is a need for that role. Contracts and negotiations need to be separate to coaching otherwise it takes time away from actual coaching.

I don't think the DoR should be sole decision maker on team. I didn't think that was what Carter was doing but either way the coach has to choose. Some may be knocked back but they shouldn't have anyone they didn't choose.

Fair enough but that’s why you follow a professional process, advertise, interview, wait for the right candidate, appoint someone who brings something to your club who can improve everyone around them

Did I miss your correction?

Are you arguing with yourself now?

If you meant Mash then I misunderstood which 'they' you were having a go at. I was talking about Carter as others are talking about Carter's interview where he takes responsibility.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, Apppegarth needs to take a reasonable chunk of responsibility for our performances and subsequent relegation. We have had a record amount of nillings and poor performances throughout the year, yet still had ample opportunities to save the year. Getting pumped by Cas at home was unforgivable. Seeing the same old mistakes yet same old faces playing who simply shouldn’t of been. I have nothing personal against Mash and do believe he is a good young coach, but he simply shouldn’t of gone for this job, we needed an experienced coach who may have been in these waters before. Mash obviously thought he was up to the job and has failed miserably.

Thanks for giving me your opinion old lad or I believed a know nothing like Paul Sculthorpe on tv saying he knows Mash well and he's a good coach

Winning 4 games in a whole season would strongly suggest that he isn't a good coach. Getting knocked out of the chwllenge cup in the first round they played would strongly suggest he isnt a good coach. Leading the team who had the most nillings ever in Super League would strongly suggest he isn't a good coach. Getting your home team club relegated in your first season would strongly suggest he isn't a good coach.

I'm sure he's a lovely bloke, but he is the worst coach in Super League and club history

I don't go in for the 'he's rubbish because of the result'. There are loads of things that affect the result, injuries in particular at the beginning of the season

However, at the Shareholder meetings, Mash said he didn't want to talk about individual players, and possibly right to do it, but I'd like to know

1) why could Fifita arriving improve Atoni's performance, but you and no one else including Atoni himself could do it
2) why play Proctor when he either can't do more than 35 minutes at best and 15 at worst. Who's decision was it not to come back on, Proctor or Mash.
3) who's decision was it to sign Proctor?

Sure you know more than Sculthorpe you know a lot less than me though
