Coaching greats Craig Bellamy and Wayne Bennett sit at the top of a contingency hit list being compiled by South Sydney officials concerned their premiership window is about to slam shut.
Club officials are concerned with the state of the football team under Demetriou and have begun formulating contingency plans in the event the coach is unable to exact a response from his players against Cronulla following a shocking 34-4 defeat to the Warriors at Accor Stadium on Saturday.
Mitchell, who was off sick with an ear infection that day, wasn’t in the room. The coach defended Mitchell, praising him for showing the effort to get across and put himself in the position to save the try, regardless of the execution that landed him in hot water and left Addo-Carr, his close friend, concussed.
According to club sources who requested anonymity due to the sensitivity of the matter, one of the major concerns is Demetriou’s reluctance to take on advice. The club advised him to hire a senior assistant to replace John Morris as his defensive coach, but Demetriou refused to do so, instead promoting NSW Cup coach Joe O’Callaghan to fill the void left by the departures of Burgess and Morris.
The Rabbitohs also have the second-worst attack in the competition, with the Tigers having scored more points in four games than the usually potent Rabbitohs have in five. This time the club will instead implement a strict training regime to make sure he stays in shape, but more importantly to show his teammates he is being held to account for his disciplinary lapses.
