Is it Pagan's fault that Scotland kicks the footy over Kouta's head at a kick in.
Is it Pagans fault Fev's goes the torp off the side of the boot straight to a crows player.
Is it Pagans fault players keep on kicking it out on the full, Nick Stevens included.
The list goes on and on.
The amount of turnovers today killed us, not Pagan.
Anyone who doesn't think that's Pagan's fault really struggles with the concepts of the game. WTF you think the coach is for. Part of coaching is about skills. Others make similar comments, they're simply niave at best and stupid at worst.
Pagan is not the skills coach thats what either Tony Elshaug, Tony Liberatore or Terry Daniher do.
Garry Dempsey does the ruck division and Barry Mitchell is coaching the Bullants.
One of the above is meant to be the skills coach.
If you ask me Pagan's mistake is keeping Tony Elshaug around.
Turnovers resulted in about 10 goals today and if you can't see that then you have nfi about football. Every week is the same old same old thing, opposition teams pressure us in defence or the midfield, wait for us to turnover the ball going forward and attack from there, why, because they know we will.
Pagan's THE coach and as such it's his responsibilty. Make no mistake, if we were a great side winning premierships, the coach would be getting all the kudos. so, as such, it's his responsibity when things are going badly, including skills. It's been 4 years, I think supporters have waited long enough. Never be accepted anywhere else.
