I am still keen to wait till the end of the season. No rush as teams are not falling over themselves to get him.

See how he goes at the end of the year. If he makes the top 4, I would definitely take him. Top 8 - depends how they get there. No top 8, then sorry Mary but time to go.

Decision should be based on results.

there's no rush to re-sign him, and like I keep saying its not like we need to worry about another club signing him before we do. Wait til at least round 15 and then decide.

As the season evolves, it will be good to see what decisions Mary makes as situations arise.

Of course, l may provide some monthly ridicule to appease oneself at his expense but I can't give an in depth informed view of the man until we need the end of the season.

I hope he succeeds .......... with the cattle we have, we should make a show of ourselves, barring injury of course.

I have s funny feeling that the wheels have fallen off as they will not win any games without Widdop. There is no back up plan in the halves and the backline defence will not be rectified as Mary does not think that it is a problem
as he has not addressed the players'
Inadequacies here or the hopeless goalkicking.

With Cleary now signed up only real option is Demitriou.

At the end of 2015, Demetriou uprooted his young family, and relocated to Sydney. At 2016's end, he accepted an offer to join Brisbane. With this in mind, I'd like to know your reasoning in stating he is "the only real option" (especially when it became clear that the Dragons simply don't see him as a ready first grade coach)?

Mary is scared to upset the players and does not believe that young players should be given a go. After all he did not play NRL until he was 26. The verdict is still out.

No hurry, wait until after the Origin period at least & see how the team is travelling then!! Maybe Management have valued his worth as Waterboy salary rather than Head Coach....on the Millward white board of strategic planning.

I hear Waterboys are pulling big coin nowadays, not to mention a handful of lollies.
A decent Sandboy is going to cost you a dozen Paddlepops or more!
