Quote ="Gazwire"Powell's been here for half a season plus pre-season. The core of the players have been around for 5/6/7 years and underperformed.
How many more years are you going to give these players? How many more coaches do we need to go through to get a tune out of these players?'"
I'm just not sure where this unwavering support for Powell comes from. I'm not saying the players are blameless,nor am I saying they're good enough, but facts are these players are better than what they've shown this season. As a team we look clueless. It is absolutely the coaches job to get the best out of the group he's got. I can't see a single department that's improved under Powell - can you? We're not fitter or stronger, we look less drilled, less disciplined, worse in attack and worse in defence. So what is it that makes you think he's the man to back and trust going forward? Genuine question not meaning to sound confrontational at all.
I hope I'm wrong and he is the right man, the saviour, the guy whose going to take us to a grand final win.....but so far there's absolutely zero to suggest he possibly might be.
