| Quote Wollagong Way="Wollagong Way"One of the main issues i had on Friday was the lack of any attacking structure, but hey i shouldn't have been suprised as it's the story of Agar's stewerdship. I didn't expect us to rack up 40 points against them, i did expect us to look interested and threatning going forwards....we only did that in the last 20 minutes. I wouldn't have been so narked off as i was if we had created some chances...we looked totally inept.
And as a guy said to me if this is what their reaction is to the Cas hammering god helps us......how true!'"
but we did rack up 22 |

| Quote downtheante="downtheante"Hey look - that's why this is such a great country - free thought, free speech. We're all perfectly entitled to have our own opinions and voice/publish them.
I personally interpret this as not "cause and effect" but exacerbating the position that currently exixts (for whatever reason - be it crap coaching or something else).'"
I'm not someone who boos the team and I'm certainly not someone who cheers the opposition but as fans they have payed for the right to do that if they so wish. In a perfect world Agar has the right to criticise those for doing so. This isn't a perfect world though and once a coach starts on the fans it usually means the end is near. |

| Quote Bigger Daddy="Bigger Daddy"No it wouldn't help. Agar is the players' boss, and he publicly slated them for a lack of comitment last week (and has complained about them previously) - does that help?
The fans were doing what Agar himself has already done. If the fans are wrong to do that, then so is our coach.'"
Look - it's up to you how you react. You are perfectly entitled to do what you want (within the law), particularly this season when we have underperformed so miserably. I just choose not to boo my team and look for some positives instead. It's really what Agar and the team have to do as well - I agree with you and think he should not publicly berate his team like he did last week but, hey, it's a free world as you mention above. |

But I don't think he has "started on the fans". I think the headline does not represent his words. This is trying to sell newspapers and sensationalise some fairly innocuous comments. |

Ahh not sure your James Rule as Robbo suggests....more like Agar himself...i'll claim my £5
I've been waiting for you (Rich  ) to come out with "we scored 22 points" what next "it's a sign of a good side that doesn't play well but still gets the result" |

I'd say that claiming that the fans had a "detrimental effect" on the performance of the team is criticising them wouldn't you? |

erm... no. I'd say "the fans don't know their rugby" is a criticism. The fans' reaction is having a "detrimental effect" is an observation. |

In my opinion he shouldn't have said anything with regards the fans....he should have played it with a straight bat and deflected it away. I do feel as though this has detracted from what was a poor performance in Friday, all anyone is doing is talking about this issue.....maybe that is what he wanted?
At times I'd love to criticise or make a 'comment' regarding my customers but as a professional i don't! |
