And my argument is if we continue to allow soft excuses ("but it's chaotic") for poor performance then we'll never win a premiership. Winning games of football is equally chaotic (also involves human bodies - and has a lot more variables because S&C is just a subset) but coaches are measured on their win/loss performance. I don't get why S&C teams should just get given a free ride? The data does give me a clear picture because we clearly have way too many soft tissue injuries - and soft tissue injuries have had a heap of research done about how to prevent them - similarly if you have more ACLs/PCLs than everyone else over 10+ years - over that period of time the outliers don't impact the trend and are surely an accurate indicator of comparative performance? If an injury has measures to prevent it then luck should not be a valid excuse. Our S&C team should be benchmarked against those at other clubs. If it is down the bottom (which the raw data suggests it is), it's time to pull the pin imo.I agree that we seem to be bad at it recently, but you can't measure it like you can something analytical like investments/finance. It is a totally different beast.
Human body in a high performance environment is chaotic. So many factors and variables. Think more climate/weather than finance if you want a comparison. Obviously not that extreme but I bet its closer than finance.
So my point is getting fed up is useless because the data doesn't give you a clear picture like it does in something quantitative (finance etc). You look at the process and I assume Weber and Co get reviewed and the process is solid. There is nothing more you can do without just guessing..
PS. I'm not sure the finance people would agree they don't have lots of variables and aren't dealing with a chaotic environment If it were that easy, everyone would be billionaires.
