Sorry guys,  I love all your work you do on the pod and all the time and effort you all put in 

But today was the first time, I had to turn off the pod halfway through.

It's not often that 360 is more sympathetic to WT than its own fan podcast.

I know everyone is frustrated because we haven't made finals in 10 years and you all want madge out, but I that's bleed into looking out our position only 3 games into the season. 

As Kent said on 360 last night you could put Jack Gibson in at WT and they wouldn't make the 8.  Kent said Madge can take a battled hardened team like the Storm coach them but our team struggle because they aren't battled hardened. Because we have accepted poor culture over 10-15-20 years. Blaming the coach for all our woes is unfair. 

I think madge is right in that we aren't far off in terms of who we have on the field - we are defending a lot better than previous years - and when Hastings is on field we are attacking completely different to previous years. 

We don't have the best roster in the comp this year because we are in transition - and to top it off we are missing 4-5 first grade players but for who we have they are putting in the effort -  which is all I ask - we just lack the polish and execution.

It's going to be a long year - I think we need to be actively looking fot some positives than just piling on.

 

And for the record Gold Coast have made the finals 4 years out of 15. We have made the finals 3 years out of 21. 

 

Sorry rant over - 🙂

I thought it was odd that it was said the Club can't make the tough decisions..has never made the tough decisions..

The fact they backed Madge in the face of everything was the tough decision..

Perhaps you guys should say the Club can't make the right decisions in your opinions..
