A group of bushwalkers (board/coach/players) lost deep in bushland without a PLB, compass or gps, and trying to find their way out.
Either they:
a) keep walking in one direction till they can walk no more - in hope of finding a road or way out (or currently a 100m high rock face); or
b) call for help.
Our players can't call as they don't have phones on them (because the coach thought it'd be good to have a nice multi day trek away from technology).
Our coaches phone is flat and he brought it with 30% battery,.
Our board believe rather than using a phone we should all be using a can and string to communicate.
Our players seek the guidance from the coach who told them all he was "an expert bushman", only to find out that he lied, and his only guidance he can offer is "well sooner or later a 747 flying into Sydney Airport will head over this flight path, and we can flag it down possibly".
...
Surely our players are at the point of completely losing hope out there, as the person they turn to for guidance to get they best out of their abilities, has zero direction or ability to assist in guiding them on or off field.
Pay might be a "matey mate" that everyone thinks "is a good bloke to have a beer with", but that doesn't win games.
A coach shouldn't be "your best friend", a coach should be "your best manager". Someone who can assist to nurture your talent, and help you work as part of a team. These are key criteria for a coach, and something that Pay has never really exhibited.
Then, going back to my analogy, what bushwalkers (players) would want to join a bushwalking club that constantly gets lost, is underprepared, lacks leadership, and is run by bumbling fools who constantly trip over their own feet.
