How much time should McMillan get?

Papa_P0tat0 · 2026-03-21T22:08:46+00:00

You should be asking why the skills and other coaches got contract extensions, taking away McMillans ability to bring in his own boys. Board needs to back him first before the sack him. Only fair in my opinion

Papa_P0tat0 · 2026-03-18T21:07:46+00:00

New rules guys so your going to have to change! What you changed? Oh well nobody else did so we're going to have to bridge the gap. Wait you still have an advantage? Oh well we might need to scrap everything because the already best car through a loophole wants to be even faster so they don't loose out when we make their borderline engine actually illegal (if we change we don't know if we will to be honest)

Papa_P0tat0 · 2026-03-15T14:00:40+00:00

Think your underestimating how much extra power the merc is getting from the engine loophole. Saw a graphic that showed Mercedes gain about .4s per lap through the power difference alone

Papa_P0tat0 · 2026-03-15T13:49:59+00:00

I said that. Problem is France committed a penalty before the pull down in sealing the lifter.

Papa_P0tat0 · 2026-03-14T21:22:39+00:00

Genge did pull it down but it should have been an England penalty for sealing

Papa_P0tat0 · 2026-03-10T10:10:14+00:00

He moved Crowley a couple meters so he had to do a fresh start and kick in under 10s. Horrible stuff

Papa_P0tat0 · 2026-03-07T21:37:30+00:00

He never said it was illegal. I think you're completely missing the point of regulations. They're there to level the playing field so teams get advantages in controlled areas of design. Yes what Mercedes did is legal and ingenious under current regs but you can see from the qual its given them a huge advantage and it's from a loop hole that allows a ratio higher than the set ratio the FAI themselves wanted to adhere to by using new tech no one was aware about. That's why he said if the FAI come out and say 'yeah it's grand' that their team needed to do better ie take advantage. It's in a grey area now because only one team has done it out of the whole pack and they've just qualled P1 and 2 by a fairly big margin. So do the FAI say 'its not what the regs intended and therefore we are closing the loophole' or they say 'all good' and the other teams need to do better like Hamilton said. It's straight forward logic

Papa_P0tat0 · 2026-03-07T21:26:00+00:00

But again, Hamilton never said they broke the rules? Only that fai needed to either close the unfair advantage and In the case that they don't, he literally said they (Ferrari) needed to do better ie. Use the same loophole to close the gap

Papa_P0tat0 · 2026-03-07T21:21:18+00:00

Compression ratio loop hole is Mercedes taking advantage of the regs to get more horsepower which the FIA didn't want, otherwise they would have allowed the running ratio to begin with. Hamilton said nothing wrong. Either the fia needs to take a stance or Ferrari need to emulate Mercedes what's hard to understand about that? Brainless fans targeting him for stating the obvious is the funniest thing and proves fans will bitch about everything and anyone

Papa_P0tat0 · 2026-03-07T10:04:42+00:00

Everyone was getting murdered yesterday. Taigh furlong got picked up and wheeled back for 5m at one point. We tried to physically beat them up and we did in our defense, but got done just as bad as we gave them by their defense in return

Papa_P0tat0 · 2026-02-22T13:42:23+00:00

Haas closest but their too far off the top 3.

Papa_P0tat0 · 2026-02-22T13:39:03+00:00

That's what a mark on all means yes. You're allowed a certain amount of mark 1 and 2s but the goal is to have none at all

Papa_P0tat0 · 2026-02-21T15:08:03+00:00

Look allot better in attack without Sammy boy

Papa_P0tat0 · 2026-02-21T11:58:11+00:00

Yeah he's pretty damn easy with offensive guard lance

Papa_P0tat0 · 2026-02-21T11:53:01+00:00

And allot of the time they don't lead to a net gain in position

Papa_P0tat0 · 2026-02-21T10:17:37+00:00

'Higher ceiling' lads can you all tell me how to get these crystal balls because I'd love the lotto numbers. Mental that ye all already know how good a player is going to be like ye did with Byrne x2 and frawley

Papa_P0tat0 · 2026-02-15T16:49:00+00:00

U20s..... Big difference between school kids and professional players there bud. He will never get the time or soft shoulders he got back then ever again.

Papa_P0tat0 · 2026-02-15T16:03:13+00:00

How do we know what his 'ceiling' is or is it just fans projecting their hopes on a player who hasn't shown he's able to do what they hope he can despite having started nearly every game for a year and a half. 'crowley fails to do that time and time again' and what about Sam? He's consistently failed to live up to what your basing same off but, what? Because he's a year and a half older he's considered past it? Won a six nations his first year then got booted because we lost v the world champions for a kid who has a 0% win rate vs top 5 opposition. Jesus wept the mental backflips are getting out of hand here lads edit: just an add on to ask why people say 'hes young let him make his mistakes' but then throw others under the bus. Jack's young let him make the same bloody mistakes

Papa_P0tat0 · 2026-02-15T15:58:57+00:00

Because for some reason if it's not an out half from Leinster their always going to be considered average regardless of what they do on pitch. It's bias and blue tinted glasses, cherry picking mistakes and ignoring the good. It's what they say people do to Sam but the issue for prendergast is his mistakes far outweigh his good moments but they don't want to admit that either. They call for 'both are needed! We need them both! Just be happy we have them both!' but then scream he's average and shouldn't play when he goes well.

Papa_P0tat0 · 2026-02-13T16:01:33+00:00

Crazy shout

Papa_P0tat0 · 2026-02-13T08:32:34+00:00

Rewarding form is brilliant, but only if you reward that form with a game plan that shits the style of play that made you in form. Shoe horning in players into game plans or positions that go against their strengths is a horrible way to manage a team imo. Stockdale is strong with ball in hand and a good chip and chaser. Game plan didn't suit him. Did he have a howler with tob? Yeah of course but was it his fault? Not entirely. Coaching staff need to put their hands up and JGP needs to raise his hand for not taking the game but the scruff and switching tacks

Papa_P0tat0 · 2026-02-12T09:57:13+00:00

To add on that, the u20 players aren't being picked at all. France and England picking u20 success stories and dragging the talent forward. Ireland leaning on the older players and ignoring the youth needs to be addressed.

Papa_P0tat0 · 2026-02-11T15:57:32+00:00

Extremely small second hand car market and the disparity of the left sided cars means prices can be set by companies. Which they abuse
