Yeah because Ben Ikin has played the game at the Top level where the other knobs haven’t x U can be a rugby league expert or a rugby league Journo for years but they’ll never know more than the guys who actually played the game
The “journo” on the right with the glasses is a nufty too. Good for John Morris to walk out. Let them deal with the rest of the season. He can go somewhere he’s appreciated and not treated dirty.
Kent: “you need someone to come in and turn over the roster....” Also dipshit Kent in every other discussion: “why can’t a coach come in and run with the players in place? Every coach seems to need to bring in a whole new roster!” He’s an expert......
A new coach isn't the issue - it's managerial competence. If the Sharks didn't think JM was the future of the club they have sacked him in November 20 and not strung him along. He's been treated abysmally.
Kenty gave me a headache this episode. He’s not usually that annoying. He needs to be quiet. I don’t believe anything he says about the Sharks. He’s a stooge.
They're sporting pundits. It's their job to give their opinion on Rugby League. I don't think any of them profess to know the ins and outs of how to lead a club. What they are doing is providing legitimate criticism on how John Morris has been treated by Cronulla. It's all pretty fair commentary for mind.
The coach is not the problem. The Sharks have been carrying a lot of dead wood on their roster for some years now. You have to feel sorry for Morris but that being said, now is as good a time as any for a major cleanout from top to bottom. Good luck to Fitzgibbon . At this stage I think he will need it.
Yeah dead wood like Matt Moylan who’s on $900k a season and Josh Dugan who’s on $900k this season and those two players are coming off contract so John Morris never got the chance to have money available to spend on players he wanted instead Craig Fitzgibbon will get that opportunity and that’s a damn shame
I honestly think John Morris was just a long term interim coach and I think the Sharks was just waiting for this point all along and John Morris wasn’t there to sign players or make the team his own he was just there to coach the team up until this point so they could sign a better option to coach this team and now they think they have that better option in Craig Fitzgibbon and Fitzgibbon will now have around 5 million dollars to spend for next season and beyond
@@gtmorgan4323 You are spot on GT. Both of them have never really done much at the Sharks and should have been moved on a long time ago. There are a few other big names that should go as well.
@@anthonymontgomery4861 Yeah like Fifita who’s on $800k a season Aaron Woods who hasn’t been to bad these days but I’m sure he’s on decent coin there and Wade Graham aswell he’s on $750k a season now I’m a huge Wade Graham fan and he’s a superstar and a good captain for the club but he’s always injured so Sharks definitely ain’t getting what they paid for in there Top paid players so Credit to John Morris for managing that situation and bringing in too young players to step up and guiding the Sharks to Two finals appearances in two years
@@anthonymontgomery4861 John Morris done the hard yards with them for over two years and when there’s finally money available for John Morris to use for 2022 they get rid of him x He’s been hard done by And I’m not even a Sharks fan but I feel for him coz he deserves better treatment than that
Exactly u have spent 2 years building morris and now just when his finally looking good u cut him and start again with another rookie coach who will take the same time to learn and build into a good coach
The real question is could Fitzgibbon in the last 2 years get the sharks to the top 8 ???? I don’t think so I watched this sharks team against the roosters live was very well coached football team just lacked in last 10 minutes shame on u Cronulla
The entire history of Cronulla is hardly that of a top club. I suspect the chopping and changing within the club is only going to push them in one direction. Average of past 15 years is 8-9th position.
Why do people think Fitzgibbon is gonna be a good coach? Because he was a good player??? The top 3 coaches in the nrl right now. Craig Bellamy (a fringe first grader at best) Trent Robinson (pretty much a reserve grader) Wayne Bennett (a fringe rep player.) the nrl is one of the few sports on earth that pretends being a good player is a requirement for being a good coach. It’s not it’s nothing but an excuse to give some good ol boys a job because you underpaid em at the end of their career. In contrast the nfl has head coaches who went to college then became coaches they started preparing for the job at 22. Some are the most respected in the game at 35. Is it because he’s been an assistant at the roosters?? Cool assistant coach and head coach aren’t the same thing. It’s like saying because I work in construction I’m going to succeed as an architect. I might but my being good at my current job is not the same thing. I sincerely hope Fitzgibbon goes well, success stories are far better than failures. But the idea that Fitzgibbon is a better coach’s and can attract player bec20 years ago he and Hindmarsh and ricketson formed nsw’s greatest backrow is just wishing on a star.
As Sharks fan, I am excited about Fitzgibbon next year. But our club handled the whole situation badly. Everyone likes to talk about the big 6 clubs, they do not handle situations like this. Telling coach on Monday no decision has been made, then on Tuesday he is gone. Not exactly a professional way to handle things. Also as incoming coach seeing this mess unfold. You would not believe anything the board said. Not exactly the best for our coach to start.
As a sharks fan this signing excites me. I never felt Morris had what it took to make the hard decisions. He seems a decent coach but nothing about his tenure said we were on a trajectory back to the top clubs.
John Morris done a good job considering he got them to the finals 2 years in a row and considering he hasn’t had the money available to sign players he wants because Dugan and Moylan and Fifita ain’t worth what there on atm and your marquee player Johnson hasn’t played yet and so John Morris has had to blood in a lot of rookies over the past two seasons and imo he’s built a good team with what he’s had available to him
Fitzgibbon has done nothing. They talk about Pedigree? Been riding the golden goose at the roosters. All the assistant coaches who ventured out from the Storm didn’t fair well. BS.
When kenty said their a middle of the table club he exactly proved ikin and crawleys point. The sharks in so many areas there cap is screwed. Fines in place reserve grade quality players on big money and yet John Morris has gotten that team who quite honestly on paper could be argued as a bottom 8 side to the finals 2 years out of 2. He has blooded new players and made them good enough to get to the finals. Just when he can come in and spend money on bringing in new players that he wants and getting rid of the sack of potato’s on big money he gets fired. You ask me it’s got nothing to do with him being a good bloke it’s to do with the fact that you just sacked the man that has gotten your club in a much better position than they would’ve been with 90% other coaches, and they had the audacity to sack him
The sharks management have no idea and are pointing the blame in every direction but inwards. That’s the real story. They must be trying to copy Brisbane into the depths of incompetence.
Agreed with Ikin, JM should of been given a chance to work with a full salary cap. Will Hannay get the Sharks to win against the big 4 or 5 teams? Maybe the club could of bought Fitzgibbon in as an assistant to JM next year with a full salary cap.
Sharks are light years behind the big 6, doesn’t matter if they sign the GOAT of coaches Craig Bellamy, they still wouldn’t be ahead of the top 6 so they can’t be expected to go better then what they have been.
Morris future will be fine, he's already proved he can coach. Fitzgibbon will be tested, anyone could coach at the Roosters with an international playing roster. I thought the Sharks were going to be the ones flying under the radar this year and surprise the whole comp, the club has just ruined that, but time will tell.
Yes exactly it’s easy to be an assistant at the Roosters when you’ve got International players everywhere and Fitzgibbon seems to have a bright future as a head coach but he has to prove it now and just Because he’s come out of a good system with a winning culture doesn’t mean he’ll succeed in the nrl just look at the assistants that came out of Melbourne like Stephen Kearney for example He had big raps on him aswell and coached NZ to a World Cup win in 2008 and still he didn’t succeed as a head coach in the nrl
I wish John Morris the best in the future and he’s still a young coach and he’ll be better for the experience and he definitely has a bright future in the NRL as a head coach so he’ll bounce back I think
7:45 fucking facts. Sacking a coach for "just making finals" is not right when alot of teams out there that don't even make finals. Won't be long until Craig is gone aswell and they go the way of the tigers with a coach every year.
Fitzgibbon hasn’t been head coach and youse think 16 ceos would choose him over a current NRL coach that has made last 8 with roster he had - you need your head checked some of yas deadset
geez you wouldnt want to be a nrl coach with these monday experts running you down every chance they get there are only so many good players so some teams are going to struggle regardless of who is coaching them
All the very best to John Morris, he can walk away from this sordid saga with his dignity fully intact. As a rookie head coach in the NRL, i have never seen anyone handle a bad situation better than JM. I did not see this coming, blindsided by it to be honest..
Ikin is talking sense. Morris has done a terrific job given his circumstances. He doesn't have the credentials of Fitzgibbon which makes his stint as coach even more impressive. Cronulla have always let go of their young players over the years - Kent has no idea what he's talking about. Morris has blooded so many.
It's a sad day in rugby league when Ben Ikin is the most knowledgeable and well spoken man on the panel. Jesus the other three clowns are stealing a living.
John Morris's biggest downfall = Shaun Johnson BIG MONEY + CONSTANTLY INJURED /Matt Moylan BIG MONEY + CONSTANTLY INJURED / Andrew Fifita BIG MONEY + CONSTANTLY INJURED / Josh Dugan BIG MONEY + CONSTANTLY INJURED / Balanced Salary Caps win Competitions..........Cronula's has been out of balance for the past 3 seasons
It’s hard to attract talent if your not a top team. It’s unfortunate but it’s the way it is. The only way to throw big money on players that probably aren’t worth that much.
@@NuuKola Have a look at the 2016 Cronula team that won the comp. A few old heads, a few rookies, and a few up and coming stars. But the distribution of the cap means a much more balanced team. I guess the curse of winning a comp means individuals worth goes up significantly on the market, hence ballooning the cap in the next few seasons.
John Morris was treated like a bum, the same as Dean Pay. Used till they fixed the cap then straight out the door for a new coach. How can you blame players when they move on, loyalty is gone, started by the clubs. As for these boof heads, Ikin is the only one that understands the subject, Morris might not have beaten a top 4 side, but he doesn’t have a top 4 squad. Now that they are getting cap space & can bring in other players, why not let Morris have an fair go & judge him then. Not while he has all the restraints with the cap.
Morris took us to the finals twice in a row with a side consisting mainly of guys no one had heard of and below the salary cap what more can he do end of the day you can the best coach in the world but the players have to do it in the end
This is one of the dumbest gutless decisions I’ve ever seen from a club, his a very good coach who hasn’t had a fully fit squad since his been there. This is the first year they finally look like they could make top6 and they replace him. If I was a sharks fan I would complain
and today Fitzgibbon has brought in Finucane. This was the right move as the Sharks needed to turnover the roster and they have basically done that with Fitzgibbon pulling the strings - players want to play for him
The club is more successful off field today because of council rezoning. It's not because of the chairman and the CEO. The land they developed has been proposed to council for over 40 years.
NRL 360 Kent & Hoops should get there facts right on Reynolds saying that he was unhappy the way negotiations went at the sharks crap.These Media people are have zero idea what went on with the meeting where ever there getting the info from better shoot the messenger who gave them the lies.Maybe Kent or NRL 360 should ask Dino to come on the show and he will inform them of the truth.
Seriously, 0 and 11 against the top teams. I’m yet to see john Morris drop a ball repeatedly give away penalties not play well blah blah. Ffs what’s fitzy done, a great assistant at the roosters etc I recall Trent Barrett being the next gun coach bahahahahaha. What they really expect Cronulla to excel under fitzy? Seriously you have too feel for Morris but being knifed in the back is part and parcel
It is amazing how clubs ditch a coach who builds a premiership contending team. Roosters did with Graham Murray and next year Ricky Stuart wins the premiership. It has happened to Anthony Griffin at the Broncos for Bennett and Penrith for Ivan Cleary. Good luck to the coaches who inherit the rosters built up by the previous coaches. Griffin must be a good coach if you look at the results versus the expectations of the 'Experts" for the Dragons this year. Do not know if he is a pork chop or not but to be successfull the club as a whole needs to be harmonious and if your club isn't doing too well then there are things going on that are not being exposed to the public which are dividing the club.
Seeing this in 2023 does not age well for two of these blokes. Pretty easy to see why one of them left voluntarily and is going great guns. Keep doing you BI.
It's always the coaches fault ... Ya right ... Got it ... 😏 ... The Players need to grow a pair ... Look in the mirror boy's cause you ain't half of what you think you are ... Embarrassing

Seriously, 0 and 11 against the top teams. I’m yet to see john Morris drop a ball repeatedly give away penalties not play well blah blah. Ffs what’s fitzy done, a great assistant at the roosters etc I recall Trent Barrett being the next gun coach bahahahahaha.
What they really expect Cronulla to excel under fitzy?
Seriously you have too feel for Morris but being knifed in the back is part and parcel
It is amazing how clubs ditch a coach who builds a premiership contending team. Roosters did with Graham Murray and next year Ricky Stuart wins the premiership. It has happened to Anthony Griffin at the Broncos for Bennett and Penrith for Ivan Cleary. Good luck to the coaches who inherit the rosters built up by the previous coaches. Griffin must be a good coach if you look at the results versus the expectations of the 'Experts" for the Dragons this year. Do not know if he is a pork chop or not but to be successfull the club as a whole needs to be harmonious and if your club isn't doing too well then there are things going on that are not being exposed to the public which are dividing the club.
I hope the sharks players just stand on the feild and do nothing
So just pretend it's the 80's 90's
Seeing this in 2023 does not age well for two of these blokes. Pretty easy to see why one of them left voluntarily and is going great guns. Keep doing you BI.
As if getting will chambers in is a good decision
I can’t wait to see the sharks get pumped after this saga
These guys talk like they’ve coached a NRL team before.
🤣😂🤣 let it go, the shark's starting a new era round 6 2021 nrl 🤣😂🤣
Its like the new rule changes, not good when money make decisions about a sport they know nothing about
ii agree with glasses. they want to win verse top teams. 0/11 isnt good
Football journalists surprise with how much they don't know about football
Is this a joke he will have a club to coach next season easy edit do you know how many player are off contract with sharks next season crazy
Those journos are completely out of their depth. They support their argument with "private" conversations which I bet never happen.
Anyone can coach the rooster n will do ok with those players
It's always the coaches fault ... Ya right ... Got it ... 😏 ... The Players need to grow a pair ... Look in the mirror boy's cause you ain't half of what you think you are ... Embarrassing
One year sharks come 2
Sharks are winning tho,
Hate to be the dogs coach 4 weeks into next year goneèeeeeeeee
I only listen to ben iken this is cringe
Wow, typical cop out attitude.
