[Fishfinger]

sen sack thomas due to the "curent financial crisis" 

but have the money to put TW on who no doubt would have demanded more that Grant Thomas

go figure

They said on SEN today that he is just filling in for Billy Brainless for the Aints v Richmond game.

[Mr Magic]

I hope he continues to pee you people off lol

I hope he fades into football oblivion.

I bet he doesn't.

I actually heard the SEN interview - he was on "Crunch time" between 12.00 and 1.00pm

Anthony Hudson sadi that TW will be on SEN every few weeks over the remainder of the season.

The onlt thing that was of interest really was his comments about the power bases at Punt road. There is actually a brief article about in today's HUN on page 8 of the sports section. It is by Jackie Epstein. I

Take your personally views about TW out if it for a minute, what he said is actually what alot of people on here have been saying for ages with regard to different groups think they have more of say in things than should. He made the point that what the RFC needs to do is actually be united and move forward in the one direction - something we haven't been able to do (whether people want to admit it or not) for over 20 years

People object to hearing the truth.
The undermining he experienced for a number of years now is a blight on our club
Whether people liked him or not, we made him coach and for three of those years these gutless wonders were in the background doing what they thought was beneficial to the club.
What they should have been doing was all of them getting behind each other as a group, as TW says here, and maybe we might not be in the poo we're in at the moment.
We never learn that instability will never ever help us
So we start all over again and more than likely the same things will happen again.
There is a growing case IMO for folding up the whole club and just giving it away
We are a basketcase and worthy of all the jibes and jokes that are said about us.

[Mr Magic]

Miller is the fool for giving him 5 years in the first place. Thank God that buffoon is no longer with us either.

It was apparent that Wallet had NFI early into his third season (actually year 2) and we should have been able to punt him at the end of '07 but obviously we were hamstrung.

Geezus is it any wonder there have been grumblings about the place for some time about Wallet?!

Open your eyes to this charlatan and stop blaming others for his unmitigated failure!

well then i suppose it wasnt his fault.
not his fault the club hasnt made finals for the last 4 years.
not his fault that the team is the worst in the league at skills
not his fault that they traded picks for hacks
not his fault that they handballed too much
not his fault.....

In the words of Bart Simpson......."I didnt do it!"

That's fine, Mr Magic, lots of people agree with you.
But the same is likely to occur with the next coach, and the next and the next
Take Wallace out of this, don't you want to see the culture around the club change or you're happy for people in the background to make the decisions about the club no matter what ordinary members think or want?
I don't.  They're a cancer that we'll never get rid of with people like you saying what they do is okay.

[Mr Magic]

Who is 'They're' then?

Gary March?

Unless you can name these so called trouble makers, what you are saying is just froth, bubble and excuse making for a failed coach.

Coteries groups and disgruntled sacked employees 

[Mr Magic]

Coteries groups and disgruntled sacked employees 

How on earth could a sacked employee have any influence on proceedings?

Wallace was just a coach who had a fundamentally flawed outlook on what it takes to be a successful football team.

Now to find one who has a successful philosophy.

Mr Magic, sadly the HUN article is not on the net and I am not going ot type it because I will be here until midnight 

TW certainly didn't blame the different power bases at the club for his demise.

He made the point that he'd been through the place twice once as a player and now as a coach and that both times the internal power bases were present (have to add Dermie was staggered by this).

He went onto say that while things were going well the problem wasn't present but when people start to believe or perceive that things weren't going well that is when the different groups fractured off and they tried to establish their powerbase. He also said it wasn't one particular area and named a number of groups including the past players and coterie groups.

I don't expect anyone to change their opinion of TW

But the reality is that there have been; over the last 2 years in particular a number of groups within the club that have not helped the club by pushing their own agendas and undermining people because they think it is their right

Actually, believe what you want, Magic, that's your prerogative
But when we find we can't get people we want to come to the club because they do believe we're a basketcase, then people might actually listen and think, hey, we really do have a cultural problem.
Won't be until we're dead and buried and we have a footy coronial inquest into the death of a club may we find out exactly what went wrong
Wallace says it started 18 months or so into his career.
Discussion on the same issue has been going strong on this board for about the same time
Believe me, it's no coincidence

I think it's time for us all to unite and work through our opposing views to achieve a more stable environment - if only i was on the board and could say that.
