Baxter, Diamond and Richards are DoRs not head coaches.

Thanks, RB! These three must keep a low profile when their clubs' matches are on tv, cos generally we'll only see Deano, Hooper and Baxter interviewed and I've assumed them to be head coach.

I suspect the issue is not whether we need a DoR and a Head Coach but, rather, whether we need a DoR and a Head of Elite Performance Recruitment.

Do we really need another thread about DORs (or HCs) with which to 'bash' our current incumbents? :smt005 :smt005 :smt005

A valid point. One wonders to what extent their responsibilities overlap.

Everything about Murphy screams FAILURE.
Nice guy he is, its a cruel world in Pro Sport, and how he has kept in his position overlording such an incredible playing downslide, such diabolical coaching, heaven only knows.
The problem is, all this supporters negativity filters through to the players, and really, the money spent on him would be miles better spent on 3 quality foreign players.
As anyone with a hole in their head would agree with. But, he keeps his postion.. Why ???????

Because the Board seemingly have a very unhealthy blind faith in Murphy and have effectively given him a very lucrative job for life regardless of his experience ability and performance.

Without having access to their job descriptions, it's a bit difficult to judge, isn't it?

The titles themselves mean very little.

I am getting really fed up of Murphy-bashing by the usual few who raise it on every thread. Is Murphy the new Cohen, who received constant abuse from some posters?

There has been something fundamentally wrong in the club for a while now and there is one common factor. Call it bashing if you wish, but in the opinion of many of the contributors to this forum, and probably other supporters too, this is where the weak link in the club is.
