How long is Forde contracted? My favourite coach in the league but do wonder if management are starting to ponder the idea of moving on from him.
I would be very surprised if they are thinking of moving Forde on.
Like Brisbane, Forde is relying on too few for results, partly his problem because bringing Adnam, Taylor, even Dufelmeir seems very strange, certainly when Waardenburg always seems to get injuries.
Injuries to key players are a big reason for the Taipans struggles. I thought they were a lot better last night but still had Bradshaw and Galloway out.
Adnam was brought in as an old head and 11th man. Dufelmeir was training with the Taipans already when players started going down. Taylor was available and presumably cheap. Although not a like for like replacement for Bradshaw, Forde deemed him a reasonable fit as he could cover a few positions.
I don't think any of these decisions have had much bearing on the Taipans overall performance particularly when you take into account money would have been a big factor.
