    Laurie Daley now damaged goods for a NRL coaching career?

    No not quite, he has been mum on his future. I've read that he has some support to continue but whether it's enough is another question. Daley either is weighing his options or taking his time to announce he won't continue. I'm not sure him staying on is in the likely category at this stage, and...

    Laurie Daley now damaged goods for a NRL coaching career?

    Smith gives input about a Cameron Munster to Queensland and that's you're evidence that Smith and Cronk are the real coaches? Seriously Pedge you are really grasping at straws of what was an unsubstantiated ill-thought out comment. Tom Raudonkis also last night praised Kevin Walters attacking...

    Laurie Daley now damaged goods for a NRL coaching career?

    I remember when Raudonkis had the job (1997, 1998) there were complaints from critics that he was overweight and he smoked and they didn't think he was the best face for the game. Laurie Daley said at the time though the players loved playing for him. Raudonkis did pretty well to get what he...

    Laurie Daley now damaged goods for a NRL coaching career?

    Well said, also Walters has never been accused of a puppet. It was Meninga who some people in the media said that the brains behind the operation were his assistants Michael Hagan and Neil Henry. Then some have come on this forum and have taken this out of contexts and have said that in anyone...

    Laurie Daley now damaged goods for a NRL coaching career?

    Still doesn't discount the other things Walters has on his resume. The changes he made for Game 2 were important, and you largely forget also that Queensland were given no chance to win after game 1. I love people that re-write history suggesting 'Oh I knew Queensland was going to win the series...

    Laurie Daley now damaged goods for a NRL coaching career?

    Daley said at the press conference last night 'I know what I'm going to do'. Its likely he was going to walk no matter what the outcome of this series. But I really doubt they would give him another go even if he was interested in staying on. Geoff Toovey is in England, and Ivan Cleary is at...

    Laurie Daley now damaged goods for a NRL coaching career?

    I think Kevin Walters deserves credit though for turning things around for Queensland after Game 1. Also Walters has worked his apprentice as an assistant coach with Criag Bellamy at Melbourne. He has been interviewed for the Tigers coaching gig, and he has been rumored considered successor for...

    Peats is crap

    Ha! You think NSW game plan is based around Peats the way Cam Smith is for QLD? Nice try but no cigar.

    Peats is crap

    Peats was likely told not to do too much and get the ball to the big men and the halves. I really doubt he was given the Green light to do much more. I actually think NSW should persevere with him and the more experience he gets the more he will be able to take a more leading role into the...

    Laurie Daley now damaged goods for a NRL coaching career?

    Interestingly the NSW implosion has suggested that some think Laurie Daley will find it hard to get a crack for a NRL gig. I have never really thought that state of origin neither enhanced or harmed you're chances in the NRL coaching ranks because it's a different type of coaching to the week in...

    CORDER OUT

    Is this a prank? Because I see no where this has been reported. It's also spelt Cordner

    What NSW need for Game III

    What's gone largely unnoticed is Jack Bird game time in game 2 = 19:00 minutes. There is no point having someone of Birds capability on the bench if he does not get game time. Queensland has used Michael Morgan a lot more effectively from utility then NSW has with Bird.

    Suncorp Stadium set to host NRL grand final

    Suncorp Stadium set to host NRL grand final

    I agree that with the larger venue ANZ stadiums wins out, but because it's under construction and if you are being consistent with who has the largest attendance Suncorp Stadium wins out. Sydney Cricket Ground: Capacity: 46,000 Sydney Football stadium: 44,000 (seated capacity) Suncorp Stadium...

    Suncorp Stadium set to host NRL grand final

    Piss off. This post is on topic and if you are going to complain about this thread then why don't you complain about the future stadiums thread.

    Suncorp Stadium set to host NRL grand final

    The word in the media Brisbane could host a NRL Grand Final. The fact ANZ stadium will go under reconstruction will cancel them out hosting the NRL Grand Final for one year. I think Brisbane would be the best option then other suggestions thrown up (SCG, Melbourne, Adelaide, Perth, etc)...

    Refereeing

    Gus blows up on referees suggest the game is too over-refereed. I tend to agree, State of Origin the refs tend to hold back and let the game flow more. NRL football the refs tend to become too much a factor in the game. The best referees are the one's that don't get noticed in the contest. You...

    Which team should relocate to western austrlia?

    Good article on relocation. http://commentaryboxsports.com/australian/nrl/expansion-yes-relocation-no.html Basically the NRL shouldn't touch it with a fifty feet poll, and relocation for example taking the West Tigers to Perth does nothing in terms of retaining Tigers fans. The author also...

    lol at Broncos getting nervous re expansion!

    Broncos CEO Paul White has put his beak into expansion debate of a second team in Brisbane. White not surprisingly is against it suggesting the Broncos have had to 'work hard' against other codes to get sponsorships and suggests it's not as easy being one club town as it looks. White's...
