I hope you are not talking about the rumour of a high profile coach signing a letter of Intent for $1.3m per year.

No doubt your talking about bellamy

No doubt your talking about bellamy

Being a Bunnies supporter, I'd say he is takling about Madge - but I didnt know there was any such rumour about any coach...

now OT.... it's great to have you back; know you are enjoying lots of limelight since your recent return ....but it's time to put up or shut up.

You can't say 'I told you so' if you haven't told us !

for the record, I love humble pie if the greater good is served

You lot are after a messiah and none will be forthcoming. All I am saying is that Coach Price is finally turning to our youngsters and it is going to pay off.

 

[Conditionally Human]

I admire your optimism OT, but can't share it.

Our Draw for the remainder of 2013 looks bad.

Rnd 19 . Souffs (away) - My prediction - loss
Rnd 20. Raiders - (WIN Stadium) My prediction - loss (damned hoodoo).
Rnd 21. Bulldogs - (WIN Jubilee) My prediction - loss
Rnd 22. Broncos (away) - My prediction - win (their halves aren't much better than ours)
Rnd 23. Sharks (WIN Stadium) - My prediction - loss
Rnd 24. Wests Tigers (WIN Jubilee) - My prediction - win
Rnd 25. Eels (away) - My prediction - win
Rnd 26 Warriors (WIN Stadium) - My prediction - loss

That will leave us on just 20 points, and definitely in contention for the spoon.

OT your optimism for Price is starting to worry me a little lol.;-)

Good to see us playing the youngsters I agree.

 

[stg666]

i agree with OT 100%. next year will be very interesting indeed .

 

[inside_pass]

P.s.....Enjoy reading about the old days.....keep the stories coming.

really, I can live with losing ALL of these games so long as the re-building year (learning opportunity) is not lost, and there is real evidence that the effectiveness of coaching, with or without Steve Price produces a better structure to our game on the field

...and not just talking about it.

 

[Old_Timer]

Well time for me to fess up. During my absence it became apparent that even the die hard Price supporters had finally deserted him, thus out of pity I chose to switch sides. Don't get me wrong, I really do think our Club is going to turn things around and the catalyst for that is this years performance. Our youngsters will finally get blooded, why, because Coach Price has been instructed to do so.

It matters not who will be our head coach next year because whoever would have to be a massive improvement on what we currently have. My only reservation about next year is Widdop. Hip displacement and contact sport do not gell well.

So chin up guys the days of milk and honey are just around the corner.

P.s. Inside I am 81 and I saw my first Saints game in 1938.
