It’s hard to do this, but Des has to go, his record as a player and a coach is not to be dismantled, however in saying that he has failed to evolve with and adapt to the modern game, I’ve followed this club and the game for 50 years, whats happening at the moment obviously goes far deeper than just the coach, the players need to accept some accountability, stand up and show some pride in themselves and the jersey, I’m pissed at the whole show, we are at rock bottom and odds on for our first spoon.
Des‘s flaws and loyalties have been well documented.
Our roster is questionable at best, losing quality players and the lack of recruiting is diabolical, the situation surrounding hooker, need I say more.
The players are clearly not match fit, granted its round one but the Modern game requires results from the get go, we were the only team to play one trail and it showed.
Andrew Davey was the only player to show any real enthusiasm and commitment to his work on Saturday and I would go so far as to say that stemmed from the culture and ethics instilled at Parramatta rather than anything to do what’s going on at our club
I don’t want to go on any further and bag Des, i just don’t see his tenure as a positive one, any Coach sitting on 11 from 12 would be in serious doubt anywhere else, it’s a mess, we need own it and do what’s necessary now sooner rather than later, extending his contract and or continuing with Des as coach will bring nothing but more of the same, sorry Des, its time for badly needed change,
