those high tackles when the player slips and cops a stray hand in the face are so stupid - last one called could hardly be defined as a tackle at all - what's the point of penalising those?

The dude was falling and like 2 inches from the ground.

Has any team benefited from sacking their coach mid year and then going on to succeed the year after? Genuinely asking.

Lord, the knights are terrible.

didn't we sack Brown halfway through 2022 and then make the top 4 in 2023? I don't think the Knights are far off. They have gun outside backs. Their defence is already top 4. Invest in a few middles and I think they could make a push for the 8 next year.

Why league players like to do Riko Ioane instead of both arms wrapped around the ball for the try

I was more thinking of the immediate successor, like the one that takes over mid way.

lol look what happens when they omit using their halves.. maybe the knights should have two extra middle forwards instead of trying to solve their halves issue

Where they sack them and they stay to the end of the season some make the 8. 2014 Broncos come to mind.

I think Ciraldo was caretaker coach at Penrith in 2018 after Griffin was sacked. He led them to the finals and knocked us out in week 1.

AOB has got to be the biggest cry baby coach ever. Getting up there with Sticky. Always looking to deflect from his awful tactical decisions as coach. Makes you appreciate Webby and his refusal to take the bait in the pressers:

I feel like sacking the coach generally means that the season was a write off.

Theres the exceptions that yourself and SydneyWah have mentioned, but I wouldn't expect the majority of teams to be able to operate better.
