Ufuk Talay giving the Smurfs gig
Not really a surprise
Odd thing is that our coach ain't under any pressure at all despite being winless

Can't recall a GF last season only a first past the post.
Stanton should get the season if the team is competitive and is competing for a finals spot. The club needs some stability, pretty simple...
Ridiculous what's has happened at City and Sydney. Australian football doesn't need this, Surely 5 to 6 games at a minimum. Last thing we want is the same coaching merry-go-round like in some European competitions.
I mean, anyone could see Rado wasn't up to task last season, they obviously gave him pre season to implement ideas but the play didn't improve.
Corica was probably in line to get sacked at the end of last season until they fluked a finals spot. Now he has won a pre-season cup, only lost like 4 games out of his last 16 and they look like idiots just following what City did to try and look competent.
I don’t so much have a problem with the City and Sydney sackings.
They have been in a successful position almost every year. Their board, fans and sponsors obviously demand more and have been disappointed with what has been offered so far. They didn’t like what they saw, took action so they didn’t write off their entire season. Sydney were disappointing last season, and city choked at the end so a poor start seems like a continuation of their decline.
We are in a very different position.
We can’t afford to be sacking coaches after a few games. The standards and quality of the squad need to be improved and short of signing everyone to 1 year contracts, there’s always an inherited squad excuse.
I’d love for us to be in a position where we can sack a coach after a few losses because that doesn’t fit our club. Reality is, we get 2-3 wins in a row and we will build the coach a statue.
Sorry, I just realized it sounded like I was in the "sack Staunton" club, I am not.
If we finish with our first ever wooden spoon, he needs to go. If he plays the kids all year, doesn't park the bus and we don't finish last then give him a new deal. If he make Finals, he can take Couscous's permanent parking spot and Dylan will even throw him a pool party.
If he beats the Gypos at each attempt I'll start building his statue immediately.
ABC radio saying the Perth sale has collapsed.
Couldn't provide the deposit on the agreed date so KordaMentha terminated the deal. Sage blames Korda for the collapse. Hope they do better for the Jets

The state of the game is at its worst since the A League commenced. I don't think any reasonable person thought the game could be run worse than under FFA with Gallop and Lowie Jnr but the club owners have taken it to a whole new low.
As much as Gallop copped, he at least had experience running arguably Australia’s most successful competition.
Popular opinion that Vlandys is a ****, but you can’t argue he gets shit done. If he ran football, at least we’d know he was doing things for the good of the game.
Bloke single handedly kept NRL operating during COVID despite doctors, political advice both nationally and internationally.
He’s now trying to expand the comp to 20 teams and get the Aus Govt to fund a PNG team to strengthen Australia’s relationship and deter China.
Bloke could sell sand on the beach.
