His attacking nous, sharpness of his skills and strong defence for starters.

Warriors have been very poor in his absence.

What are you talking about???:?:?:?

It was beer. He was there with Norths players, who were sort of bad-boys of the game at the time (in the Tim Smith mode, rather than gang-rapists).

No big deal, although nowdays he would be chased from the game.

Always better to go the big stuff, like gang rape, when your club and code covers up for you rather than hangs you out to dry.

Poor old Jason Taylor is finally getting a chunk of what he deserves as a human being. If you think I am being harsh, lets look at some history.

At Wests in the early 90's, that poor little wimp of of a player did not appreciate the coaching of one of the greats of the modern era (Warren Ryan). His ranting and raving to the board contributed towards the downfall of Warren Ryan's tenure at the club and left the club that had nurtured him for dead. Jason Taylor set a precedent for player power beating rugbly league club management. Taylor got his way over a weak-kneed board.

When people look up player power pioneer in the dictionary or wikipedia, Jason Taylor's photo will be there.

The whinger decided to go to another club with weak management (North Sydney Bears). That club had a great coach (Peter Louis). Peter Louis coached the club through its finest period in its history.
Jason Taylor's form began to wane diring his Bears stint. Louis wanted to drop him to reserve grade. Jason Taylor did not try to knuckle down in reserve grade to work on his game. He took action in the ONLY way he knows how....act like a workers union boss and demand that Louis get sacked.

Those "strong" managers at North Sydney took Jason's word over one of the greatest coaches the club ever had. Peter Louis continued to hang around as a statue while Jason Taylor played captain/selector/coach/chief exectutive. Even Louis has gone on the record saying that Taylor coached the joint while he was there. A case of the inmates running the asylum. Taylor was king maniac.

As we all know, the club went downhill from there. If Norths had stronger managers, they might still be around in the NRL.

Enter 2008. Taylor is now getting some karma. There have been rumblings from Souths players about the coach. Souths react by getting John Lang to manage the side. It is Taylor's turn to do his impersonation of a statue. Suths need to go a step further and sack the wanker. Richardson - Lang are proven performers. Let them work their magic while Taylor can go to the coaching graveyard.

For starters? Oh do go on.

He has a decent kicking game and can kick goals. They are the only dimensions to his game.
Why do you think he wasn't retained at the Eels or Manly?
He might have been asking too much because of his attacking nous.

so, I'm assuming most of you guys are happy that Taylor never got to experience premiership success?

Adjusting my post in a quote?

Tut tut.

Congratulations. You drew attention to the post & it was removed by the sites admin.

You constantly heap sh!t on all & sundry and then whinge over a technical breach of some minor forum rule. Such character. Feel better now. :lol:

I always hated Taylor as a youngster, and also at the same time hated the Broncos

Then in 94 JT kicked the field goal that knocked Brisbane out that year and i developed a soft spot for the bloke :lol:

In true Aussie spirit you kick a bloke when his down. You could get a job as a producer on Today Tonight with the sensationalised crap you have posted.

No one was bagging him when he took the Eels from near bottom of the table to the finals in '06. Or when he took Souths to their first finals in nearly 20 years.

But now Jason Taylor's charachter is into question all of a sudden. Pretty pathetic really.

Well, for someone who tries to get the coach sacked when his own form was inept, that's pretty low.
