Robbo $7 to be first coach sacked...

coaches are a lottery. nobody has a guidelines, a baseline expectation, or a form guide as to be able to predict with any degree of accuracy how a coach will turn out.

fingers crossed, Potter is no except. don't kid yourself that he is 'rated' - they all are, and they all are not. simultaneously. such is the nature of coaching in League.

Many people who actually know what they are talking about, League-wise, actually rate potter as a coach. It is a shame that Potter inherited a team which has been screwed up by sheens.

Blair and Anasta need to go, they need a proper halfback, maybe someone like a Luke Walsh, a proper working forward in the lock position, that is where they miss heighington, and some strike players out wide wouldn't do them any harm.

Elliott on the other hand has inherited some pretty useful players in his team. If he knew what he was doing he could get them to fire as a team.Their forward pack is one that I would fear as an opposition footballer, Johnson in the halves is also a good footballer and they have some very good, fast and strong players outwide, especially with a guy like hurrell.

Elliott should definitely be given the flick and they should try getting Stephen Kearney. I know that his record in the nrl is not great but I think he would be an ideal mentor for these guys.

MMM had an interesting discussion comparing Potter to Robinson. They reckon very similar coaching styles and main diff being the teams they inherited. The ignorant have already labelled Potter as a dud and Robinson as a supercoach.

Many coaches on a hiding to nothing. Ivan Cleary one of the rare cases where a coach has been given the authority to get rid of destructive influences amongst the senior players.

I would like to challenge the idea that all coaches don't have a "history." Brian Smith was hired here with a 22 year career with absolutely nothing to show for it.

Trent "Robbo" Robinson is the season 2013 coach of the year.

Funny how things work out.

He got us further than Robbo has so-far, with what I'd call a much worse team.

Sure Carney (and Robbo) did all the work but just saying. Smith did take us to a GF, which is so-far 1 better than Robbo has done.

Tomorrow night is not a given. We could receive a massive humbling from the same made who denied Smith a premiership.
