The enthusiasm over Brad Arthur tells us how we’ve drifted away from the basics of the game, which allow any team to make best use of the players at their disposal. Brad has been in the country a very short time, and has done zero preparation regarding the team or the league.
He seems to be exactly what we need at the moment. He has got just the right amount of skin in the game. He will want to protect/enhance his reputation to get himself an NRL job. The best scenario from his point of view is to get the Rhinos playing demonstrably better, and get offered an NRL job. The club get a better performing team to help attract the best new coach.
None of us know how this will pan out. My guess is he will depart at the end of this season. There is a good balance between his needs and the clubs. Blease will get lots of feedback.

BA is going. He's as good as said so himself. 

Oh I think it's pretty nailed on that BA is going at the seasons end, just don't think he's nailed on to get the Perth job.  Rumour mill out of Aus is that the Aussie Rugby League Commission are looking at Burgess, it would have to be ratified by Perth's board at the end of the day but he's definitely in the mix.

Good win i guess though we've played better and lost a few times this year. Lot of errors and overplaying but feels like we'll strike a decent balance between attack and graft soon. Good by gannon and Connor though both were far from perfect.
Ridiculous yellow card but only in the sense that the jump was so ridiculously badly timed and reckless. Delighted to hear that that to55er wilkin was left tearful. I'm all in favour of maintaining tradition.

Oops wrong thread. Sorry.
