Wow, that has got to be the weakest effort to explain/justify a coach getting sacked that I have ever seen!

We are up for one of our toughest years ever i reckon...

Handled it well. Not appropriate to dish the dirt, even if that is what the media wanted.

Didnt want dirt on SW but something that meant he should have been sacked would have been nice.

Dreadful performance from the Pres & CEO. Every response sounded weak and guilt-laced.

Didn't say why...weaved in and around club review...suspect they felt he wasn't the man so change was needed...at a basic level he didn't have the confidence of the board so he was dumped on his ass. Nettlefold didn't want to be drawn on Roo's opinions as that would be "Unfair" to Nick. Reading between the lines I felt Roo was consulted and wasn't 100% sold on Watters'

Told us nothing!! Waste of time even doing the press conference.

He was very tight-lipped. Really said nothing of substance.
