God help us. I’ve said before and will say again – Thurston made Green look like he could coach. No club had a more boring game plan after Thurston retired than NQC and the club’s inability to get even the basics right like tackling and passing resulted in successive near-bottom of the table finishes. Player calibre may provide cover for Green but that’s not a given.

Queensland Maroons confirm Paul Green as new State of Origin coach

I say again: Thurston made Green look good. That’s it. Green needs to go.

North Queensland fans should keep the faith with their misfiring Cowboys

Yes to all of that and to add….. 1) Somebody needs to teach the Cowboys how to tackle: all hanging off high (except Granville) and the opposition walks an extra 5-10 m 4 out of 5 times while others are frequently caught out flat footed because they can’t read the play (e.g., Hess, O’Neill) or can’t get there (e.g., Cooper, Scott, Maguire). 2) Somebody needs to teach the Cowboys how to pass: a lot of 14 yr-olds do a better job. 3) Thurston made Green look good; the 2017 run to the finals was mainly fluke and not due to Green.

Paul Green and the Cowboys must part ways
