TBF it was nearly midnight over there at the time of his messages so he may well have been at the back end of a few tins of Castlemaine XXXX

Yes, pretty unwise to post comments like that. Not a great look.

| Does anyone think we look like a well coached or motivated team?

None of us are complaining about what's going on behind the scenes though, good for Smith for doing that but the behind the scenes could be done by anyone, the CEO or owner.
Smith's primary role is as a head coach not an administrative role but a coaching role to optimise recruitment and improve on field performances, they are his primary objectives and he has failed miserably.
If he's so keen to sort out the culture give him the CEO job, sack Clarke off and bring in a current and up to date coaching set up.

Anyone can get rid of players especially the out of contract players we had end of last season.
A coach who can produce an ultra fit,well disciplined and dificult to beat team with both a defensive and attacking structure is what we need not this rambling fool.
People seem to forget this is his second season here and the club has gone backwards.
That is not the sign of a good coach.
Still say these players are not as bad as the results show.
Rightly or wrongly they are showing on the field they dont want to play for Smith

Yes
I love this coach,calm under pressure,and his recruitment of coaching staff and players is top class.
You can see the player motivation week after week with the effort they show in the number of penalties,and six agains given away and you have to admire the players desire to get a yellow or red card.
The coach has done a brilliant job with such a tight defensive structure and our low number of tries scored doesnt do justice to such a brilliantly coached attacking structure.
Welcome back Jake

No chance, would have mentioned Fash, Lane and Cator not been big enough.
Good to have Jake back.

Outed yourself at last
If nothing else we can still have a bit of a laugh, if not I think we'd all be crying in a corner

| I think I am prepared to let Tony have a crack for the rest of the season, if we come out of this with a group of youngsters who have the right attitude and a lot of game time under their belt then it might be good for the long term.
Lets face it, if he is still here, under these circumstances, and still fighting the rot - he must think he can do something about it
